Coating Systems – Rolling

Roll Coating System

In the field of industrial roll coating, ahk develops and manufactures custom systems that optimally support your demanding manufacturing processes. Roll coating is a precise method particularly suited for coating rigid inner layers in the PCB industry and competes directly with dry film. This process allows for the even application of liquid coatings while ensuring high productivity and precision.

Our technology ensures uniform layer thicknesses of ±1µm at speeds up to 6 m/min. The flexible roller change allows for quick adjustments of the layer thickness, making the process highly flexible and independent of format, which is especially advantageous for varying production requirements. Thanks to innovative control systems, product quality remains consistently high.

Benefit from our experience and innovative strength to advance your processes with the highest precision and efficiency.

Key benefits of roll coating include:

  • High efficiency and speed
  • Even coating distribution
  • Strong adhesion for chemical processes
  • Easy integration into automated lines
  • Cost-effective for high quantities

Suitable for …

  • Precision thin coating on large substrates
  • PCB production
  • Optical coatings

Roll coating for large-area precision coating

  • Homogeneous layer distribution across the entire substrate surface through precise roller geometry and optimized pressure settings

  • Customizable layer thicknesses from 1 to 100µm through roller change and pressure parameters

  • Simultaneous coating of both substrate sides without the need for an additional turning station

  • Layer thickness is precisely controlled via recipe parameters, with no manual pressure adjustment required

  • Coating speeds of up to 6 m/min ensure efficient manufacturing processes

  • No adjustments required for changing substrate sizes, making the process flexible and versatile

The roll coating process

  • Double-Sided Roll Coating with Grooved Rollers: In this process, the liquid resist is evenly applied to both sides of the substrate using grooved rollers. This method allows for high coating speeds of up to 6 m/min and precise layer thicknesses with a tolerance of ±1µm. Changing the rollers to adjust the layer thickness takes approximately 45 minutes. Compared to dry film, this process offers greater flexibility in terms of substrate format, but holes and galvanic structures cannot be coated.
  • Infeed and Chain Transport: The system precisely feeds the panels into the coating rollers and then transfers them to a chain with grippers. This method is particularly suitable for rigid and stable panels. Thin or flexible materials can pose a challenge as they may wrap around the rollers. Precise panel feeding is crucial to avoid damage.

For every process, we offer mechanical and software integration into your existing workflows. Thanks to integrated PLC control, our machines are compatible with all common PPS/ERP/MES systems.
