[Case Study of Pressure Measurement Film] Film Manufacturer Company A

We will introduce a case where the coating amount was standardized, resulting in a reduction of product defect rate by approximately 20%!

We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of "Presscale" at Company A, a film manufacturer engaged in the production of high-performance films coated with functional materials. If the equipment is not set to the proper conditions at the start of production, uneven thickness will occur due to prolonged coating. This leads to increased blade replacements and defect rates, resulting in decreased productivity. By visualizing even slight deviations in blade pressing pressure, we can adjust to optimal conditions at the start of production. As a result, the defect rate of the products has been reduced, and the time until blade replacement has been extended by approximately three times. 【Case Overview】 ■ Measurement Target: Blade of the gravure coater ■ Applicable Process: Coating on film ■ Challenges - Variations in blade pressing pressure at different locations cause uneven coating thickness, resulting in defective products. - Prolonged coating leads to uneven thickness, increased blade replacements, and defect rates, which decreases productivity. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
