High performance coating for technical tapes
High-performance tapes require more than a good coating layer. As performance requirements increase, the process becomes decisive. Make your coating process predictable.
Does this sound familiar?
Technical and automotive tapes are designed to perform under demanding conditions, including high or low temperatures, vibration and chemical exposure. This requires a suitable adhesive and controlled processing.
From concept to industrial production
A concept may work in testing but begin to vary when production volume increases. Adhesion changes, the process becomes more sensitive or multiple functions must be combined in one construction. New systems such as UV hotmelt may improve product performance, but they also introduce new challenges when you move towards industrial production.
The challenge is often not the formulation itself, but translating it into a coating process. How does the adhesive behave across the full web width? What happens at higher speed? How stable is the coating weight? A controlled and monitored process creates a firm grip on performance when precision, speed, scale and repeatability must come together.
What makes the difference?
The right equipment is only one part. Material expertise, testing, validated methods and process support are equally important. Analysing material behaviour early and testing under realistic conditions reveals the parameters that determine quality, stability and repeatability.
This makes the step from development to industrial production more predictable and manageable.
Where do we see these applications?
Typical situations where this applies:
- Applications involving battery modules
- Wire harness tapes
- Thermal insulation and HVAC tapes
- Conductive tapes
- Foam tapes
- Applications with multiple functional layers
