Horizontal Drying Zone Tape Caster

CAM-H series

Horizontal Drying Zone Tape Caster

The CAM-H series tape casters are our most advanced tape casters suitable for highest production demands. An elongated advanced drying tunnel up to 25 m makes them very suitable for thick or sensitive tape casting applications. Numerous temperature and air flow sensors are installed for process control. The equipment boast fully automatic casting gap control, with auto zero calibration. The process can be monitored on a touch screen HMI or by an external PC connection.

  • Suitable for green ceramic thicknesses from 5 to 500 microns (0.2 to 20 mils)
  • Suitable for solvent based and water based systems
  • Automatic tracking of carrier foil
  • Advanced drying regimes possible
  • High accuracy in thickness control and stability
  • Slotted die slurry feeding to doctor blade
  • Advanced slurry dosage with micrometer level control
  • Automatic high accuracy gap setting control
