Precision Coater
Rolls Improve Coating Quality
Recently Webex was called upon by a good customer to
take a used coater roll and refurbish the roll to new condition.
Since our customer did not have a drawing of the roll, we were asked
to inspect the roll and to reverse engineer the roll in order to
generate a detailed design.
Webex performed a detailed inspection on the roll, including ultrasonic
inspection of inaccessible areas of the roll and our engineers generated
a detailed drawing of the roll. We refurbished the used roll and
manufactured another new roll for our customer.
A month after shipping the rolls we received the following letter
from our customer.
"We wanted to send you a quick note to express how pleased
we are with the performance of the two rolls that we recently
acquired from Webex for our coater. We installed the new Webex
metering and casting roll, as well as a new back up roll.
The initial data indicates significant improvements in adhesive
coating performance. Coat weight variation has decreased by 45%-80%
in the products that we have evaluated.
We appreciate the outstanding service and product performance
that you have provided.
