Operational Description
The Union Series #45 Roller Coater was designed for customers who require an extremely rugged, dependable roller coater. The 8.75" diameter coating rolls and 6.5" diameter doctor rolls are constructed of extra-heavy wall tubing and are mounted in heavy-duty, anti-friction, self-aligning ball bearings. The heavyduty construction allows the Series #45 to be in widths ranging from 12" to 98". Coating speeds up to 600 l.f.p.m. are possible while applying a smooth, even, controllable coating to a wide variety of sheets or coils.
Standard construction features include a single handwheel to adjust the upper coating head in a vertical plane (0-2") in order to compensate for various substrate thicknesses. Two hand knobs move the doctor roll bearing assemblies in relationship to the coating roll to adjust the amount of coating being applied. All coating and/or backup rolls are powered through a chain drive, complete with spring-loaded takeups. Standard safety features include a reversing drum connected to a safety cable around the perimeter of the coater to reverse the direction of the powered rolls in the event of an emergency. Sheet metal guards with expanded metal inserts enclose the upper coating head. The drive system as well as all moving parts are shielded with guards or covers to protect the operator.
