Definitions
- the application relates to a coating device and a coating method. More precisely, the application relates to a coating device and method for applying plastic material to a carrier web in precise register.
- EP 3 493 300 A1 A device and a method for applying polymer patches to a substrate is known.
- this prior art only describes the application in register at a single point on the substrate with a structured roller.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a device and a method by means of which a user is able to carry out a simple and register-accurate coating of a carrier web.
- register-accurate is understood to mean that, analogous to the nomenclature in printing, coated areas of a front and back of a medium to be coated or coated (e.g. carrier web) are/are applied congruently or with greater register.
- the assignment of which areas are to be register-accurate to which areas is freely selectable. Partial areas can also be applied in register with one another (intersection of the areas).
- a coating device for applying plastic material in register to a carrier web comprises a first coating roller and a downstream second coating roller.
- the first coating roller has at least one first cavity, which can be filled with plastic material by means of at least one first nozzle.
- the second coating roller has at least one second cavity, which can be filled with plastic material by means of at least one second nozzle.
- a first scraper scrapes the first coating roll and a second scraper scrapes the second coating roll.
- the first Coating roll cooperates with a first backing roll and the second coating roll cooperates with a second backing roll.
- the second backing roll includes at least one backing cavity corresponding to the at least one first cavity.
- the coating device comprises at least one carrier web positioning device.
- the carrier web is the medium to be coated by the coating device and can be, for example, a continuous belt of foil.
- the carrier web can comprise metal and/or plastic.
- the carrier web can also be understood to mean individual sections of the medium which are sent individually through the coating device or are placed on a conveyor belt or are connected by connectors to form a belt.
- the carrier web has a first carrier web side and a second carrier web side.
- the second coating roller is downstream of the first coating roller, which means that the second coating roller is arranged downstream of the first coating roller in a processing direction of the coating device or in a direction of passage of the carrier web through the coating device.
- the carrier web is conveyed through between the first coating roller and the first backing roller and then between the second coating roller and the second backing roller (processing direction).
- the stripping device strips excess plastic material from the respective cavity.
- the stripped material can be collected, optionally processed and used again to fill the cavity(ies).
- the second counter-roller has at least one counter-cavity which corresponds to the first cavity, ie has at least essentially the same or a larger shape and essentially the same position as the first cavity. This means that during operation of the coating device, a first area of plastic material, which was applied to the carrier material through the at least one first cavity, is picked up by the second counter-roller or by the counter-cavity formed therein and is thus not deformed by the second counter-roller ( eg deformed or crushed).
- the second carrier web side of the carrier web or of the carrier material can be coated with plastic material in a second area by the second coating roller by means of the at least one second cavity.
- the two areas can be applied to the carrier web with register accuracy.
- the two areas lying opposite one another on the two sides of the carrier web can only overlap in a partial area, as desired and/or required, or they can also lie exactly on top of one another.
- the dimensioning of the at least one counter-cavity can correspond to that of the at least one first cavity, but can also be selected to be larger.
- the dimensioning of the at least one counter-cavity depends on a large number of factors, e.g. the plastic material, the material of the carrier web, a throughput speed of the carrier web through the coating device, temperature, etc.
- the carrier web positioning device is provided and suitable for positioning the location or position of the carrier web in the coating device with respect to at least one of the coating rollers and/or with respect to at least one of the counter rollers.
- the carrier web positioning device can also be provided and suitable for positioning the location or position of at least one of the coating rollers and/or at least one of the counter rollers with respect to the carrier web.
- thermoplastic material any type of thermoplastic material can be used as the plastic material. It is irrelevant whether the materials are unmodified, organic, or mineral-filled. However, the plastic material can also be highly filled plastic material, i.e. plastic material which has at least 50% by weight of solids or fillers.
- the device can have the advantage that a carrier web can be coated on both sides with at least two areas of plastic material in an accurate register, and this in an economical and quick and high-quality manner.
- At least one inner surface of at least one of the cavities has a structure.
- the structure can, for example, detach or hold the plastic material from the cavity influence.
- a corresponding structure can also be given to the area of plastic material on the carrier web by the structure of the at least one inner surface of the cavity. This can be an advantage, since the structure can positively influence the properties of the product and/or the production process.
- At least one inner surface of at least one of the cavities has a coating.
- the coating can, for example, reduce or prevent detachment or adhesion of the plastic material or also influence the surface roughness of the plastic-coated area. This can be an advantage because the coating can positively influence the properties of the product and/or the production process.
- An apparatus further comprises at least one area detection device.
- the area detection device detects the position of an area of plastic material coated by the at least one first cavity on the first carrier web side. This can be advantageous since the position of the first coated area on the first side of the carrier web can be determined in this way.
- the carrier web positioning device can be controlled based on the detected information so that the second area can be applied to the second carrier web side through the at least one second cavity in register with the first area. Furthermore, based on information from the area detection device, the carrier web positioning device can position the carrier web accordingly such that the at least one counter cavity coincides exactly or at least largely exactly with the first area and the first area is thus not damaged by the second counter roller. This can be advantageous because the quality of the product produced by the device can be increased.
- a device also includes a thickness measurement with regard to a filling or the degree of filling of the at least one first cavity and/or the at least one second cavity.
- the thickness measurement measures the filling of the at least one first and/or second cavity.
- the carrier web positioning device comprises at least one of a displacement device of the first and/or second coating roller, or at least one carrier web moving device.
- the displacement device can move the respective coating roller parallel to its axis of rotation, in particular in or against the processing direction.
- the carrier web moving device can move the carrier web on its path through the device. This can be achieved, for example, by means of register rollers, rollers on bogies, or rotatable guide rollers, each of which acts on the carrier web. This can have the advantage that a suitable way of influencing the running of the carrier web through the machine can be selected for each carrier web material. In the case of thin foils, for example, it can be advantageous to adjust the coating roller(s) as this minimizes the mechanical impact on the carrier web.
- the area detection device comprises at least one of a mechanical sensor, an optical sensor or a code on the first and/or second coating roller.
- a mechanical sensor can be a limit switch or contact switch, for example.
- An optical sensor can be a camera or a camera system, a backlight sensor, or a laser measurement system.
- a code can be attached, for example, to the end face of at least one of the coating rollers. The coding can contain the angle of rotation and thus, if the shape of the coating roller is known, also the position of the cavity and thus of the coated area as information. This can be advantageous since the coated areas can be detected more precisely.
- the area detection device detects the position of at least one edge of a first area of plastic material coated by the at least one first cavity on the first carrier web side of the carrier web and/or at least one edge of the carrier web.
- a device comprises a dispenser unit for applying at least one film strip.
- the strip of foil can be used to conduct electricity.
- a dispenser unit can be arranged in front of the first pair of rollers, between the first and the second pair of rollers or also after the second pair of rollers.
- the at least one film strip is applied from the dispenser unit along at least one edge of an area of plastic material coated by the at least one first cavity and/or the at least one second cavity onto the carrier web.
- This can be advantageous because functionally high-quality products can be manufactured by means of the device.
- the area detection device as well as the carrier web positioning device can be used for the exact positioning of a foil strip along one of the edges.
- a device further comprises at least one plasticizing unit, which is connected upstream of the at least one first nozzle and/or the at least one second nozzle.
- the plasticizing unit may comprise at least one of an extruder, a melt pump or a piston accumulator. If the same plastic material is to be introduced into the cavities by means of the two nozzles, it may be sufficient to provide a single plasticizing unit for this purpose. Depending on the requirements and system size, it can but also be advantageous if each nozzle or each coating roller is assigned its own plasticizing unit. This can be advantageous in order to fill the cavities of the at least one first and at least one second coating roller with plastic.
- the first and/or second stripping device comprises at least one of a doctor blade or a squeeze roller.
- a doctor blade or a squeeze roller This can be advantageous because excess plastic material can be easily and reliably removed from the coating roller(s). It can be expedient to regulate the temperature of the stripping device(s) in order to promote clean stripping of the excess material on the roller.
- temperature control of the stripping device can be understood to mean both heating and cooling.
- the at least one first nozzle and/or the at least one second nozzle is/are adjustable.
- the adjustability can relate to the size of the outlet cross section and/or to the shape of the outlet cross section of the nozzle. This can be advantageous, since such a filling can be influenced in a targeted manner in terms of quantity and/or speed of the cavity(ies).
- a device also comprises at least one cleaning unit for cleaning the carrier web, the cleaning unit being provided and suitable for cleaning at least one side of the carrier web.
- the cleaning can include at least one of mechanical, pneumatic, chemical or physical methods, such as brushes, and/or cleaning agents can be used.
- a cleaning unit can advantageously be positioned in front of the first coating roller, seen in the processing direction. This can be an advantage because the carrier web can be optimally prepared for coating, which can have a positive effect on the quality of the resulting product.
- a device further comprises at least one roughening unit for roughening the carrier web, wherein the Roughing unit provided and suitable for roughening at least one side of the carrier web.
- the roughening can be done by at least one mechanical, chemical or physical process, such as using brushes, abrasive belts (possibly with suction), plasma, solvent misting or heated embossing rollers.
- a roughening unit can be positioned upstream of the first coating roller, viewed in the processing direction. This can be an advantage because the carrier web can be optimally prepared for coating, which can have a positive effect on the quality of the resulting product.
- a device further comprises at least one smoothing unit for smoothing the carrier web, the smoothing unit being provided and suitable for smoothing at least one side of the carrier web.
- the smoothing can be done by at least one mechanical, chemical or physical method, such as by means of a stirrup beam, or by means of a tensioning device.
- a smoothing unit can be positioned upstream of the first coating roller, viewed in the processing direction. This can be an advantage because the carrier web can be optimally prepared for coating, which can have a positive effect on the quality of the resulting product.
- a device further comprises at least one processing unit for processing the carrier web, the processing unit being provided and suitable for processing at least one side and/or one edge of the carrier web.
- the processing unit can, for example, process one or both edges of the carrier web or provide holes, beads, doublings, printing of position markings, printing of codes, attachment of conductive patches, edge trimming with fixed blades or rotary knives on the carrier web.
- a processing unit can advantageously be positioned upstream of the first coating roller, viewed in the processing direction. Alternatively or additionally, a processing unit can also be arranged between the two pairs of rollers or also after the second coating roller. This can be advantageous since the functionality of the products that can be produced by the device can be increased in this way.
- the at least one plasticizing unit is preceded by a mixer.
- the mixer may be a twin or multi-screw extruder.
- the mixer or the mixing unit can be designed in the form of a single or multiple screw extruder and can also be used directly as a plasticizing unit.
- static mixers according to the prior art into the melt stream in or after the plasticizing unit. This can have the advantage that the plasticizing unit can be provided with a homogeneous plastic mixture.
- the at least one plasticizing unit can be controlled via throughput control. This can have the advantage that the cavity(ies) can be filled with plastic material in a defined or controlled manner.
- a feed block is connected between the at least one plasticizing unit and the at least one first nozzle and/or the at least one second nozzle.
- the at least one first nozzle and/or the at least one second nozzle are each designed as an application unit comprising a plurality of nozzles, with the plurality of nozzles applying the plastic material one after the other or next to one another or overlapping onto the first coating roller and/or apply to the second coating roller.
