Interface Between MetalCoat and Thermal Dryer

The transport bridge serves as an interface between the MetalCoat and the oven’s loading machine. Designed as a dedicated transport segment, it facilitates coating flow-out and supports integrated quality control processes.

It provides the required flow time, enabling consistent coating application and uniform surface finish before the wet sheet enters the oven. Round-belt transport enables smooth sheet guidance for consistent processing results.

The transport bridge supports the integration of inline coating measurement technology (e.g. SpecMetrix) for direct quality monitoring following coating application. It also provides the mounting base for sheet removal systems such as the SSM 887, supporting controlled sheet ejection before oven entry.

  • Industry proven
  • Front with roller conveyor
  • Reliable conveyance of tinplate using round belts
  • Small contact surfaces between the round belt and the sheet
  • Tool-free format change via moving the belts, preventing the side edges of the sheet from contacting the belts

  • For removal of sheets before the loading machine
