In Techtextil, Monforts will be up to display new applications and references of the coating units as well as membrane and filter applications. The coating modules can be used with or without a magnet system with working widths above 240 cm. To achieve this width the use of a magnetic doctor blade is recommended, according to the manufacturer. The coating systems are available in four versions – basic, multi-functional (two positional), universal and multi-functional (three positional).
Designed for constantly changing technical textile coating process applications, the systems coating modules can be quickly and easily changed by a specially designed undercarriage from the side of the unit; allowing it to be adapted for different applications to offer simple and user friendly PLC techniques with on-screen visualisation for all operating modes, the company explains.
