Laminating
Tapes must be on a liner to leave the needed shape and peel away waste. How do those two materials get together? Laminating.
Viadon has a rotary laminator allowing single sided adhesive tapes to be lined onto polyester, BOPP or paper release liners for die cutting purposes. The two materials – tape and liner – are placed on separate mandrels and pressed together through large rollers before winding onto a single roll.
Each type of liner has specific release agent properties that are matched to the type of adhesive on a given tape. Silicone release liners are necessary for tapes with silicone-based adhesive systems, for example.
