HED International Tech Center Adds New Tapecasting Pilot Plant

HED International has installed a new PRO-CAST® Model TCM-121 Tapecasting Machine and Pilot Plant at their New Jersey Technical Service Center. This facility will extend HED's tapecast product development and customer service capability. The pilot plant can produce a precision tape cast film as thin as 10 microns continuously on either a stainless steel conveyor or polymer carrier. Contract tapecasting and product development service is also available.

HED International offers a full line of versatile PRO-CAST® Series Casting/Coating Machines for the production of high quality cast/coated products. Systems range in length from 12 feet, ideal for lab scale applications, to over 100 feet for production models. They are available with a variety of casting surfaces, casting heads and carriers, and designed for batch or continuous production of flexible films. "Green" tape thicknesses from less than 0.001" to 0.125", and tape widths from 4" to 52", are routinely produced on the PRO-CAST® machines. The PRO-CAST® Series are "production proven", having set performance standards in the production of millions of square inches of product. All are equipped with continuous conveyor systems with surfaces that assure imperfection-free castings/coatings. Production variables, such as conveyor speed, temperature profile, solvent gradient, and air flow, are adjusted and controlled precisely.
