COLLIN Lab & Pilot Solutions has rapidly assembled a line including an extruder, a slot die and a calender with winder for the production of protective shield film in the technical centre.

COLLIN manufactures protective film lines
CEO DI Dr Friedrich Kastner said: “We already produce PET film for various medical sectors such as hospitals, doctors, pharmacies and also for opticians, for example. We have already received many enquiries and are very happy to offer our support.”
Due to the co-operation with Next Generation Recycling GmbH (NGR), material for the production of the films can be provided quickly. Among other things, PET bottle flakes recycled with the LSP procedure (Liquid State Polycondensation) by NGR are used.
Versatile lines
With this line, COLLIN calenders PET films with a thickness from 250-450μm for visors, and thinner and thicker films can be produced. The machine can be used both in calender and in cast mode for added versatility. With the machine, the casting of different films, extrusion coating of packaging films or also the equipment of non-woven fabrics with functional layers for hygiene and medical products is possible for the customers.
Processible materials range from polyolefins (packaging, battery membrane), polystyrene (thermoformed films), PMMA (plexiglass), PPSU (sterilisable films), polycarbonate (optical films), PET (food packaging) to TPE (elastic films) or TPU (fabric coating).
Furthermore, the calender can be extended modularly with camera inspection, surface treatment or web edge control.
