Z Series – Roll Coating Applicator

THERE IS A POTDEVIN SHEET COATER FOR EVERY REQUIREMENT


HOT GLUE—hot flexible or ground animal glues are kept at the proper working temperature by thermostatically-controlled electric heater encased underneath the glue tank. The heater is completely wired, including a thermostatic control, 15 ft. cord and separable plug for 110-volt or 220-volt socket

REGULATOR DIAL—Accurately controls thickness of coating required. Materials of varying thickness or type can be coated with a quick adjustment.

CLEAN EDGES—Machine accuracy eliminates glue spreading at the edges of the sheets. Saves time and money with repeatable consistent results.

CONSTRUCTION—Machines are supplied with stainless steel rollers.

TANKS—Can be supplied in cast iron or removable stainless steel

WEB COATING—Special attachment available for coating continuous webs of material rather than sheets. Usually used in conjunction with existing unwind, rewind set-ups. (call factory for more information)

BEARINGS—Machines equipped with heavy duty bearings for longer wear and more efficient operation.

FLOOR STAND—Mounted on free-rolling ball bearing casters for use to move machine to various work stations, or move out of the way when not in use. (Optional equipment.)

When you have a coating job to do, the Potdevin Z Series SHEET COATING and GLUING EQUIPMENT will significantly cut your coating costs. The labor-savings alone will pay for the machine many times over.

Watch your production cost figures go down while the machine does the work. So simple in design that any operator can produce the finest coating efficiently and accurately over the entire area of the material. The Z machines were designed to LOWER your production costs and SAVE money... and give you a superior coating at the same time.

POTDEVIN Z Series Roll Coaters can apply a delicate and accurate coating to sheets of various sizes and shapes. Coating materials such as hot or cold glue, latex, resin, paint, varnish and lacquer work with equal ease. Pliable materials up to 1/8” can be coated efficiently. When the Z machines are equipped with the Rigid Material CBA option (Cardboard Attachment) these machines will coat materials up to 3/8” and 1”.

The Potdevin Z Series include a large array of machines to tackle any roll coating operation. The Z Machine offers robust design intended for industrial applications with demanding production results.
Try a POTDEVIN Sheet Coater for short runs or for long, high- speed production. You’ll get the same cost-cutting results whether you coat paper, leather, cardboard, cloth, glass, plywood, pressed-wood, metal or any other material.

 

The Model Z is available in the standard cast iron tank for heated processes or a removeable stainless-steel glue pan for both cold and hot adhesives. The Z Series are available in 21”, 27”, 32” widths. The Z Machine options include cardboard attachment for thick and rigid materials, edge and strip patterns and variable speed drives to meet your production needs.

OPTIONS AND ATTACHMENTS FOR POTDEVIN SHEET COATERS

Sheets of stiff cardboard, veneer, wood, fibre, cork, glass, etc. are uniformly coated without being bent or creased. Rigid materials up to 3/8” thickness are correctly coated by using the standard Rigid Material Coating Attachment. This attachment can be placed on the machine or removed in 15 minutes. Spring tension permits the rollers to raise in accordance to the thickness of the material in addition to the thumb-screw pressure adjustment.

SINGLE ROLLER CARDBOARD ATTACHMENT

Handles materials up to 1” thick. Adjusts from either side for even pressure across the face of the roller.OR POTDEVIN SHEET COATERS
