(3sigma) -- 3 Sigma is installing a wide-format
specialty coater, with production trials beginning in the first quarter of 2012.
The new coater, designed and built to 3 Sigma specifications, will accommodate
76-inch web materials and can apply multiple coatings and/or adhesives on both
the front and back of the web. A laminating station produces pressure-sensitive
constructions with liner or multi-layered product designs.
Announcing the
new capability, Mike Sotzing, 3 Sigma Vice President of Operations, said, “This
new 3 Sigma specialty coater will be our most versatile piece of equipment.

With it, 3 Sigma will be able to produce more complex applications and
constructions for specialty and niche markets, as well as those we now serve.
When installation is complete, 3 Sigma will operate 14 coating lines. We saw
significant growth in 2011 and expect another major leap forward in 2012 by
virtue of this expanded capability.”
Since 1980, 3 Sigma has been a
fast-growing, resourceful innovator of specialty top-coating and
pressure-sensitive adhesive coated products. 3 Sigma offers expertise in
solvent, emulsion, and hot melt technologies, to provide the optimum solution
for any label need. |
