The right plant in the scale-up process

Coatema offers different expertise from the lab to the
pilot up to the production plant

Easycoater (Lab plant)

The Easycoater can be used for discontinuous operation
in DIN A 4 size. On the Easycoater the prozesses
Screen System
Slot Die System Lab plant - Easycoater: for discontinous
Knife System operation in DIN A 4 size
Engraved Roller System
are possible.

Basecoater (Pilot plant)

On the Basecoater it is possible to run smaller
production operations..

Equipment overview

Click&Coat
Coatema has developed the innovative Click&Coat
concept for pilot plants to be able to react faster and in
a more cost-saving way to the most different
requirements. Click&Coat permits the flexibility of the
individual coating heads but also of the entire plant:
The individual plant components are movable and can
be brought into the right position by a simple "click"
and be connected to the recently developed control
system. This is a unique way to combine different
Click&Coat coating plant
processes in modular design.

Here, more than 30 different modules in the most

varied combination can be integrated into the plant.
Moreover, an extension of production processes like
e.g. the additional use of dryer components, can be
realised much easier with the Click&Coat concept

Coatema R&D Centre

The Click&Coat system is at the customer´s disposal in Click&Coat: the individual plant components can be
brought into the right position by a simple “click”
Coatema´s company-own lab, which is said to be the
largest lab worldwide and offers on 1.200 m²:

Besides the R&D Centre offers

11 pilot plants
1 production
in working widths from 250 up to 2.000 mm.

The experts in our lab will support you during coating

trials and from your idea to the finished product.

Coatema Symposium
On the occasion of the annual COATEMA Symposium,
coating theory, presented by experts in lectures, is put
into practice on the coating, printing and laminating
Click&Coat-plant in Coatema´s R&D Centre
plants in Coatema´s lab.

The 10th Coatema Symposium will take place on

September 30th - October 1st 2009 and will surely
answer a lot of questions and give new suggestions for
the future. Please see our website
