Laminators
Laminators and compactors are available for low or high pressure lamination of multiple webs. Depending upon the application, laminators are provided with ambient, chilled, or heated rolls.
Custom-Designed Handling Equipment
Wolverine Proctor has designed and fabricated slitters, laminators, multi-purpose coaters, tenter ovens and other web processing equipment for specialized processes in many industries. We are ready to help you with your specific application.
Curing Chambers with Humdity Control
Units are designed for applications requiring curing (cross-linking) or conditioning of films and coated materials. Features may include electric heaters, all stainless steel construction, and closed-loop humidity sensing and control.
Precision Heated or Chilled Compaction Units
Units have been designed to process structural composite materials used in the aerospace industry. Features include machined side frames, high-precision double-shell heated rolls, gap controls, and hydraulic systems. Hot melt systems also available to apply resin system to paper liner.
Web Dryer
All dryers are custom-designed and fabricated to meet customer specifications. High efficiency heat transfer allows shorter dryer lengths resulting in lowered initial capital investment and reduced floor space. Designed in multiple zones of independent air velocity control and temperature for maximum operating flexibility.
Web Vertical Treater
Used to dry and cure fiberglass and other webs impregnated with epoxy resins, phenolic resins, etc. Wolverine Proctor vertical treaters are manufactured with specially designed air impingement hardware to ensure superior cross-machine treatment uniformity for products up to 15 feet (4572 mm) wide.
Floatation Dryer
Designed for products that require controlled air treatment on both sides. Flotation Dryers are equipped with different types of impingement hardware in order to provide efficient drying and to eliminate back-side product contact.
Arch Roll Support Dryers
Designed for products that require controlled air treatment on both sides. Flotation Dryers are equipped with different types of impingement hardware in order to provide efficient drying and to eliminate back-side product contact.
Unwinds/Rewinds
Available in single to triple position, semi or fully automatic splicing models. Smaller units use a cantilever design.
Coaters
Continuous coaters include nip or pan fed reverse roll, knife-over-roll, rod, gravure, saturator, dip tank or combinations. Modular design allows for quick change-over to another coating method if required.
Accumulators
Accumulators are provided to facilitate continuous uninterrupted operation during roll-to-roll transfer and splicing. Each accumulator includes a counterbalanced carriage, free-turning light-weight idler rolls, and tension control components to maintain accurate tension during acceleration and deceleration.
Saturators
Saturators are provided to apply resin systems onto non-woven fiberglass. Units include stainless steel dip tanks, idler rolls, and metering rolls with gap control. Tanks may be constructed to accept heating media for precise temperature control. Saturators may also be mounted on a docking system for easy removal and cleaning.
Complete Processing Lines
All processing lines are custom designed and built to meet required production rates and performance specifications. Wolverine Proctor has supplied lines less than 12 inches (3658 mm) to 15 feet (4572 mm) wide to handle and coat films, fabrics, paper and nonwoven products.
