Laminating machines that join materials.

The challenge in the production of activated carbon filters is the combination of several scattering machines or their arrangement in the system layout. MEYER offers a wide range of modular concepts to meet filter designs and purposes.

MEYER offers customized solutions for the treatment of the sensitive natural material leather, suitable for every volume and every process. Laminating leather results in advantages such as a softer handle (soft touch), improved haptics, less wrinkling, increased form stability, uncomplicated and easier further processing.

Carbon poses a number of challenges in mechanical engineering as it is abrasive and electrically conductive. MEYER has developed innovative solutions, including powder scattering machines that are combined with infrared heating fields to create stand-alone machines.

MEYER machines can be used to laminate membrane or multilayer films onto textiles or rigid substrates, using thermoplastic adhesives or the membrane film itself as a bonding agent as required. The core of the production line is a laminating machine equipped with modern winding technology.

This classic laminating task involves the roll-off of two or three rolls of material, which are treated in a laminating machine and then rewound. With two rolls, it is a coating process, e.g. coating foam with self adhesive film, while with three rolls, the middle roll serves as a thermoplastic adhesive that joins two materials. This process can also be carried out with solid materials in panel form.

For this application, fiber materials are equipped with a thermoplastic matrix, whereby the flow behavior of the adhesive is precisely adjusted to optimally enclose the fibers. MEYER develops laminating machines that can produce the necessary surface and linear pressure to meet these requirements.

Our laminating systems enable the production of glass mats for a wide range of applications. Glass rovings are cut to a defined length using a roving cutter and distributed onto carrier material in a specified grammage. After the application of thermoplastic adhesive powder, the material is fed into the laminating process, where carrier-free glass mats can also be produced.

In classic carpet coating, thermoplastic powder is applied to the back of the carpet in a high grammage, whereby the powder composition varies. The powder is then melted and recooled using a calender or flatbed system to complete the coating process.
