The Basic FloaterCoater Line Rollers Float with the Movement of the Stock Stainless steel inner chassis, housing the rollers, can float from 1.500 inches to 2.500 inches, depending on the unit. Unique design allows the setup person a degree of clearance should the stock not be lined up exactly with the die. Rollers follow the movement of the stock. Stainless Steel Construction Sturdy construction. Resists rust. Maintains new look years after heavy use. Electronically Controlled Electronically controls amount and timing of lubricant delivered to the rolls. Selective Lubrication Dispensing Heads...

The FloaterCoater is designed to dispense all types of lubricants, from honey oil to water-soluble oils, for a precise, controlled coating on coil stock. An air cylinder on each side of the FloaterCoater opens the rolls to feed the coil stock. Once the stock is loaded, the FloaterCoater is closed with springs, and the coil is held firmly between the rollers. External Frame, Heavy Duty, Stainless Steel Low profile with a small footprint allows installation in confined areas. Full enclosure built to protect the lubricant delivery system. Ruggedly built to withstand normal buckling of stock. The...

FloaterCoater-4

Three different types of rolls are offered to cover a wide range of applications. Each roll is designed to deposit different film thicknesses of lubricant to the metal being coated. Since it takes only minutes to change the rolls, different rolls with different finishes can be kept and switched when the film thicknesses requirement changes from one job to another. FloaterCoater with Remote Manual On/Off Valves Manual On/Off Valves are mounted remotely from the cabinet to provide easier access for the operator. Features all the same rugged, dependable construction as a basic unit with added versatility....

The Premier FloaterCoater with Electronic On/Off Controls MaxaMizer, the LSP Multiple Valve Electronic Controller The MaxaMizer is our most sophisticated electronic controller to selectively dispense lubricant to the most troublesome areas of a stamping application. It can control as many as fourteen valves (outputs). Individually programmable valves then regulate lubricant to each Dispensing Head on the FloaterCoater. Extra valves can be used to supply spray nozzles where additional lubrication is needed. The Electronic Controllers regulate the dispersion of lubricant to the FloaterCoater. A...

FloaterCoater Dimensions Nozzle Assemblies In some applications on long dies or where there are trouble areas in the die, it may be necessary to apply lubricant in addition to that from FloaterCoater rolls. A LSP spray nozzle assembly can be used to add lubricant to that area without investing in another complete system. The nozzle can be used with water soluble, vanishing oil or light viscosity lubricant. An LSP Controller can control lubricant to the FloaterCoater as well as strategically placed nozzles. Should more than one nozzle be necessary, our larger controllers can handle larger number...
