ITK-IL908/913/914 ALL IN ONE

Very versatile calender specially designed for bonding / laminating / full-coating a large range of substrates (woven and or knitted textiles, non-woven textiles, foams and other non-textile materials) by using any thermoplastic polymer (in granules form) or reactive (in appropriate drums). The polymer, melted by means of an appropriate extruder / fuser, is applied directly to one substrate by means of an engraved cylinder / flat cylinder (coating). In case of bonding process the second substrate can be added and calendered together, and eventually cooled down in exit thanks to an appropriate cylinder connected to a chiller unit

APPLICATIONS DEPENDING ON THE INSTALLED OPTIONS:

- Bonding / laminating by hot-melt

- Full-coating by hot-melt

- Film / web thermobonding

- Plastification and coating with film

- Transfer printing of polyurethane, PVC and synthetic leather

- Metallization and gold lamination

- Transfer of special effects (e.g.: snake skin)

- Application of “black out” films and barriers

CENTRAL MACHINE BODY

- Ergonomic solid and robust structure composed of iron shoulders machined with numerical control machines, where the following devices are installed

PRESSING CYLINDER FOR ENGRAVED CYLINDER OR SPREADER CYLINDER (re.9 of the enclosed drawing)

- Silicon coated pressing cylinder Ø340 mm (13,39”), installed on self-aligning supports in order to grant a perfect contact with the engraved cylinder re.8 or the coating cylinder re. 6. The rotation of this cylinder is granted by motorisation while its pressure by two pneumatic pistons fed with compressed air with adjustable pressure up to 6 Kg/cm .

- On the each piston (one per side) acts one actuator which allows to control precisely the distance of the pressing cylinder re. 9 in relationship the cylinders re.8 or re. 6 (gap adjustable up to mm.50)

- It is foreseen the possibility of installing a chiller unit (optional) for the cooling of this cylinder (rotating head for the circulation of the chilled water already included).

UPPER PRESSING CYLINDER (re..11 of the attached drawing)

- Teflon coated (anti-sticking treatment) pressing cylinder, Ø260 mm (10,24”) , heated by electric armoured resistances in diathermic oil-bath

- The working temperature is controlled electronically and it is adjustable from the room temperature up to 230 °C.

- This cylinder works in absence of air (Monti Antonio S.p.A. patent) so that to grant no oil oxidation and a long life to the heating elements.

- The rotation of this cylinder is granted by motorization while its pressure by two pneumatic pistons fed with compressed air with adjustable pressure up to 6 Kg/cm . On the each piston (one per side) acts one actuator which allows to control precisely the distance of pressing cylinder re.11 in relationship to pressing cylinder re. 9 (gap adjustable up to mm.50)
