Machines / Extrusion Lines / Coating and Lamination Lines
SML’s high-performance extrusion coating lines are the right answer to the hugely diverse requirements of today’s coating products. SML’s high-speed extrusion coating and laminating lines set the standard across the industry, maintaining flexibility even with frequent product changes.
Typical end users include manufacturers of flexible packaging for the food industry, producers of breathable films and laminates for hygiene applications, and companies within the construction and textile industries that rely on the extrusion coating process.
As the exclusive SML partner in Scandinavia, Northern Grafics provides direct access to these advanced coating and lamination technologies. Whatever your production needs may be, SML always offers the ideal solution for your final product – combining proven efficiency, low energy consumption, and exceptional quality.
Extrusion coating is a high-tech process used to apply a thin layer of molten polymer, resin, or adhesive onto a substrate such as film, paper, or foil. This process enhances the material’s performance, giving it improved barrier properties, adhesion, gloss, or heat resistance.
SML’s extrusion coating lines utilize precision-engineered extrusion technology to ensure exact layer control, uniform surface quality, and optimal adhesion between layers. Each coating line can be tailored to suit a wide range of applications – from flexible packaging and paper coating to technical films and industrial laminates.
Through advanced temperature management and intelligent process control, SML’s coating lines deliver consistent results, minimal downtime, and long-term reliability in continuous production.
Extrusion lamination combines multiple materials – typically film, paper, or foil – using heat, pressure, and adhesives to form a composite with enhanced functionality. This process is essential in the food packaging and flexible packaging industries, where laminated materials provide superior strength, barrier protection, and durability.
SML’s extrusion lamination lines can perform both single- and double-sided lamination in one continuous operation. The integration of extrusion coating and extrusion lamination on the same line allows for the production of multilayer films with exceptional precision and process efficiency. The outcome: high quality, reduced waste, and optimal production economy.
