Maximizing Efficiency: Roll Coating Technology for Rapid Scale-Up

Roll coating technology is used in a wide range of applications, including batteries, energy creation, and more. While developing your roll coating solutions, it is important to be sure they meet all of your needs while also being able to scale up production rapidly. 

At National Polymer, our team can help you develop the roll coating technology you need and rapidly scale up your production. Let’s explore the process and benefits of partnering with our team. 

How Contract Polymer’s Roll Coating Technology Can Improve Your Scale-Up Process

At National Polymer, we take a unique approach when developing the roll coating technology you need. Our team starts by determining the requirements you want to achieve, such as material properties, conditions that can lead to scale-up and production, and more. We will then set a framework for the experiments we run to find the right roll coating solutions for your application. 

It is important to note, however, that this framework is not rigid and drawn out like some large organizations’ R&D processes. We will run a few tests, compile the results, and then adapt and change our processes to address issues during the process. We will then run more tests, and the process repeats until we start leading toward the goal by meeting material properties and conditions. There are many unknowns in this process, so it is important for us to try things we haven’t done before and ensure that our processes are as flexible and adaptable as possible to get you the technology you need. 

Once we get to a place where we are close to finding the right solution for your roll coating needs, we can then start to optimize. This includes changing conditions, coating methods, temperatures, speeds, materials, and more on small-scale equipment. This allows us to see what is most efficient, including considering competing variables. When we change one thing, it may adversely affect another, so we work to balance these tradeoffs to produce the best results possible. 

After we optimize, our team creates a set process or a process of record. This is what we know works, including what materials are effective and the preparation process to get the results you need. We can then move this process up to faster, larger machines, ultimately scaling up your operations to meet your production needs. Additionally, as production progresses, we will continue to improve the process slightly over time, making it even more efficient and cost-effective. 

Benefits of Roll Coating Technology With National Polymer

We Can Design the Equipment You Need

When our team is in charge of the development and initial manufacturing of your roll coating solutions, we have the knowledge needed to design the proper equipment for your projects. If we are unable to take on the volume our customer needs, we can design larger scale equipment that our customers can buy and install. 

We Can Adapt Our Own Equipment

We can also adapt our own equipment, build additional fixtures, and develop new coating methods to create the roll coating technology you need for your applications.
