Securing a Production Process Through Nip Measurements Paid Members Public
Presented by Stefan Wegdell, Nip Control AB 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,
Roll-to-Roll Vacuum Deposition of OLEDs for Lighting Application Paid Members Public
Presented by Tomasz Wanski, Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems A novel approach has been started to transfer highly efficient small molecule OLED technology into roll-to-roll processing on flexible metal and polymer webs for OLED lighting. The processing line consists of a roll-to-roll vacuum coater for organic materials evaporation, a roll-to-roll
Sputtered Low-E Films on Flexible PET Substrates Paid Members Public
Presented by Dr. Stella Maris Van Eek, FHR Anlagenbau GmbH Our task is to supply equipment and sputter-targets for broadly vacuum-coating. This experience enables us to integrate tool and materials in order to develop a robust process for the industrial manufacturing of thin films. As an example we show here
Porous Air Bearing Techniques for Contactless Handling, Flattening and Stabilization of Webs Paid Members Public
Presented by Teunis van Dam, IBS Precision Engineering In roll-to-roll processes for printed electronics, avoiding web contact is critical to reduce damage and contamination. Experiments on newly developed cylindrical air bearings demonstrate that a stiff < 0.1 mm air layer can be realized to support webs, proving the feasibility
Advanced Optical Line Scanners for Web Inspection in Vacuum Processes Paid Members Public
Presented by Nikolaus Tichawa, Tichawa Vision GmbH Optical Line Scanners have been used successfully as in-situ sensors in vacuum processes for a couple of years. The basic advantages of CIS technology are very compact size and the use of the CIS housing itself as a pressure chamber.
Impact EC F Gas Regulation (EC 842/2006) and Proposed Global Warming Limits on Vacuum Web Coating Operations Paid Members Public
Presented by James Stenhouse The impact of current and proposed EU legislation has far reaching irrespective of the age of plant. For users and manufacturers of coating plant recent proposals to limit the maximum global warming potential of refrigerant gases poses some important questions. Including the probable impact on production
