Surface Functionalization of Web Substrates In-line With Metal and Metal Oxide Deposition Members Public

Metallized and clear metal oxide coatings used in applications such a food packaging, printing, decorative, biomedical, electronic and agricultural, often require certain surface functionality that alters the properties of the metallized surface. Useful functional properties include high surface energy for adhesion to printing inks and other materials, low surface energy

Securing a Production Process through Nip Measurements” Members Public

Un-parallel rollers/cylinders or incorrect absolute pressure can greatly influence process critical nips. Machine builders/ roller manufacturers and process/application owners are in different ways interested in the nip characteristics of process critical nips. Industrial roller nips can be divided into processing nips, where the intent is to permanently modify

Wrinkling of Foils Members Public

Presented by Timothy J. Walker, TJWalker+Associates, Inc. Kevin A. Cole, Optimation Technology Inc. Aluminum and copper metal webs less than 150 microns thick (6-mils) are considered foils. In many products, thinner foils have cost or weight advantages, but as with nearly any web, thinner means an increased sensitivity to

Wireless Monitoring of Winding Roll Pressures Members Public

Presented by Timothy J. Walker, TJWalker+Associates, Inc. Winding is a dynamic process. The final roll is the product of all that happens from roll start to final cutoff. Nearly all roll measurement methods try to characterize a roll's structure after winding is completed. This is like understanding
