Surface treatment of corrugating rolls and anilox rolls makes producers in the paper, pulp and print industries more cost-efficient.

From thermal spray systems and materials all the way to management of the whole process: Oerlikon Metco offers a Swiss quality one-stop-shop solution.

SHANGHAI, March 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Oerlikon Metco (https://www.oerlikon.com/metco/cn/), a worldwide innovation leader in surface solutions, focuses on the pulp & paper and print industries and will showcase its cutting-edge thermal spray technologies at the Sino Corrugated trade show in Shanghai from 11-14 April, 2017.

In the coming years, the enterprise, with headquarters in Switzerland and subsidiaries in China, aims to gain market share in the pulp and paper industries with its tailored solutions. Abrasion and corrosion affect the lifespan of corrugating rolls, anilox and calendar rolls as well as doctor blades. That is a challenge for many manufacturers in the highly competitive Chinese market, who try to reduce costs and at the same time improve performance.

Optimizing the lifetime

"With our high-end thermal spray technologies and Swiss-quality coatings, we optimize the lifetime of these parts and improve productivity. That makes the paper and pulp manufacturers more cost-efficient," says Mr. Thomas Schweizer, General Manager of Oerlikon Metco China. The Oerlikon Metco coatings, especially designed for the pulp and paper industries, protect corrugating rolls, anilox rolls and other parts from corrosion, abrasion and sliding wear and can be finished to very specific surface textures.

A true one-stop-shop: equipment, material, process

Oerlikon Metco offers its worldwide full-range solutions from one source, starting with thermal spray equipment that fits the specific processes and budgets of customers. The self-contained coating facilities are customized to production requirements. They can be used both as individual production units or incorporated into manufacturing lines. Also, the wide range of thermal spray guns in the Oerlikon Metco catalogue ensures that customers can cope with every type of application.

The right material choice is of key importance for every thermal spray process: The experts in the laboratories of Oerlikon Metco continuously work on coating powders with the highest quality and dependability. A broad range of manufacturing methods are employed to achieve the coating characteristics of the materials.
