INVO^® Coater

This is the Unique Zero Dwell Coater

Invo-Coater INVO^® Coater from UMV is one of the best inventions since the start of coating and sizing. It follows the innovative tradition of UMV with several proven state-of-the-art technologies in the offering, such as the INVO^® Tip metering element and the ABC™ Coater.

The INVO^® Coater is a compact combination of a Jet Coating Applicator with a system for conventional rod or INVO^® Tip metering. In this way, the application and metering of the coating color takes place with minimum dwell time, which offers the possibility to run with high solids in both starch and coating color applications.

The applied media stays on the surface of the sheet and reduces coat weight needs while giving you excellent coverage.
The possibility to apply thin coating layers with a low wet amount makes this coater an excellent choice for barrier applications.
It can be used for both front- and reverse side treatment in numerous combinations and set-ups.

Can be equipped with either a manual or an Automatic Profiling System. Because of its design, it is perfectly suited for retrofits, which often have space limitations.
