Presented by Anye Chifen, Bühler Alzenau GmbH For over 40 years, the metallized capacitor technology started in Europe which has contributed to the advancement in electronics. These advancements will continue, the future trend for capacitor films is no more strictly based on the two conventional materials aluminium and zinc. The
Adhesive Lamination: New Technology in Solvent Less Lamination Paid Members Public
Presented by Giancarlo Caimmi, Nordmeccanica NA Ltd. A new development in solvent less lamination allows for: no need of a meter mixer dispenser; no pot-life concerns; quality check in 30 minutes; slitting in 90 minutes; delivery in 24 hours from lamination; while featuring the advantages typical of traditional solvent less
Heat Load Variations on Web Substrates as Seen by Deposition Modelling Paid Members Public
Presented by Charles A. Bishop, C.A.Bishop Consultings Ltd. Wrinkling is one of the common problems that can occur during the vacuum deposition of coatings onto web substrates. It would be useful to be able to predict what deposition conditions might cause wrinkling. Where different materials and a variety

The App Approach to the Heat-seal Process Paid Members Public
Presented by Prof. Steven Abbot, TCNF Heat sealing is always a set of trade-offs, and we often aren’t clear what the trade-offs actually mean. Using two heat-seal apps (freely available on-line) the science becomes crystal clear, allowing all in the heat-seal chain to understand the implications of any change
