THE COATING MACHINERY EXPERTS KROENERT The Coating Machinery Experts

Technology Gives Us the Edge Truly great darts players always get their darts right on target. To do this they need the right technology, plenty of expertise, discipline and the ability to adapt to the conditions. All components for coating and laminating machinery share a common source. Development and construction, as well as assembly, installation and service are offered by our own plants in Germany. KROENERT is also on target. Worldwide, no machine requirements go unfulfilled. The company is not regarded as world leaders in the field of specialized machinery for coating and lamination...

DRYTEC dryers and humidifiers round off the KROENERT offer. Dryers and humidifiers of excellent quality and with exceptional performance levels have been manufactured here since 1995. Together, KROENERT and DRYTEC strive to achieve the highest levels of customer satisfaction. After all, the result depends on the sum of all darts.

The literal definition of the concept “Philosophy” is the love of wisdom. Wisdom is acquired over years, and should in turn be passed on. KROENERT has laid down its values and norms in a corporate philosophy intended not only to keep the company functioning for decades, but to preserve its identity. The customer benefit proposition remains in the foreground. All lines are the result of expertise, inventiveness and knowledge. Quality and reliability are understood; the highest levels of efficiency and a long service life in production with minimal maintenance costs are guaranteed. Commercial...

professions ensure high quality for generations. As always, people remain the most important element. Only as a team can we develop and put good ideas into practice; for this reason KROENERT places great emphasis on treating all people with respect and with appreciation for every individual. This is the only way to complete the circle: an efficient team delivers good work to satisfied customers. And, this is how we turn our philosophy into practice.

The next milestone is always the goal on which we’re focused. KROENERT has achieved many milestones without losing sight of those still to come. Improving efficiency, conserving energy and material and increasing product and operational reliability and security remain our goals. 1903 Founding of Maschinenfabrik Max Kroenert 1922 First coating and laminating machine for wax and paraffin 1936 First aluminum/paper laminating machine Founding of Bachofen + Meier (BMB) First RECO™ for dry laminating First self-adhesive label hotmelt machine Construction of first floating dryer Development of...

All machines consist of individually assembled modules. Each machine is unique and tailored to meet the requirements of the customer and their product. This combination of quality, efficiency and environmental compatibility leads to the optimum solution.

Through Thick and Thin Nature sets impressive benchmarks. Each individual facet of a fly’s eye is, at 25 μm, inconceivably small. From the KROENERT point of view this is still very big – the thinnest coating applied by one of our machines is only 0,2 μm. The machines are just as capable of applying thick layers. With applications of up to 2.000 g/m2, we can meet every need, especially since KROENERT disposes of a broad range of self-developed coating systems for different applications. Besides ex- ceptionally thin or thick coatings, the necessary components for dealing with Newtonian flow...

Diverse options through Flexibility and Modular Machine Design gravure roller technology, smooth or multi-roller processes, comma blades, nozzles or curtain applicators with single or multiple slide-slot technology or other precision coating processes. All dryers, winders and web guiding products – already de- veloped and built – meet these requirements. And, thanks to our team’s many years of experience, we will always find the correct application technology – even for special coating weights. We have something for every criterion. The Right Technology for Every Crit
