COATING SYSTEM

to card stock to make blister packs or skin packs for retail display

OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Union Blister Pack / Skin Pack Coating System was developed to
apply liquid vinyl and heatsealing adhesives to card stock and similar
stock used in skin and blister packaging operations.
The complete line starts with a Union Roller Coater, which applies
a coating material to the top surface of the stock. The amount of coating
being applied is quickly and easily regulated to meet specific requirements.
The speeds of the coater and conveyor are adjustable in a standard range
from 50 to 150 l.f.p.m. Faster speeds can be attained by lengthening
the conveyor and oven to suit.
Following the application of the coating material, a 30' belt-type
conveyor moves the coated card stock through a 10-1/2' infrared oven
and allows for a "cool-out" area which allows the user the opportunity
to immediately stack the stock. The drive of the conveyor is separate
from the coater and the variable speed control. This allows for maximum
efficiency by having a planned gap between the stock being coated and
the stock being conveyed.
Please note that the oven comes equipped with exhaust which is interlocked
with the conveyor and oven, so the oven will not heat up unless the
exhaust and conveyor are on.
Options such as a gravity feed tank, unifeed single handwheel doctor
roll control, single handwheel top control, explosion-proof electricals
and recirculating system are all available. Special features may also
be incorporated as desired.
Various models of the line are available to handle stock in any width
up to 60".
