Cloeren Mastercoat™ web coating Dies provide a superior alternative to virtually any other conventional coating methods, offering significant performance advantages over  roll, blade, bar, air knife and knife over-roll technologies.

The advantages of using a Cloeren coating Die include:

• Cleaner, easier application with reduced waste — thanks to a closed delivery path and metered flow rate
• Uniform deposition
• Less material usage
• Better gauge control
• The ability to apply multi-layer and pattern coatings.

Cloeren manufactures Dies for specialty coating applications such as proximity, contact and curtain coatings and Dies for the production of pressure-sensitive adhesives, hot-melt adhesives, and aqueous, emulsion and solution coatings. Our highly innovative designs, choice of flexible and fixed-slot lip Dies, and wide range of custom and NanoLayer technologies dramatically simplify coating operations. Our Dies are manufactured to the most exacting tolerances in our climate-controlled, precision grinding and lapping room — where laser inspection certifies dimensional accuracy.

Cloeren's most recent innovation, the patent-pending Mastercoat III Die, provides a unique adjustable preland to allow processors to fine-tune the transverse thickness distribution of fixed-lip coating Dies — independent of the lip gap. This novel solution answers our customers’ requirements for ever wider fixed slot Die processes and increasingly demanding tolerance standards and process flexibility.
