MASIM Technology
Simultaneous Biaxial Stretching for technical films
MASIM is a MARCHANTE patented technology for simultaneous biaxial stretching of films.
An increasing variety of technical films require a different care during production and stretching. Indeed, some materials require high mechanical or optical properties in their final form, which can be guaranteed by the Simultaneous Stretching process which ensures not only a stretching without roll contact but fully homogeneous properties for the final stretched film.
The MASIM brand is designed to cover all stretching needs on the market for technical films requiring perfectly homogeneous and delicate stretching, for the packaging industry as well as for electronics or energy industries (high barrier films for food packaging, battery separators for lithium batteries for example).
Technical Highlights
The new range of MASIM consists in 2 series for very low and higher stretching ratios, allowing a total control of stretching parameters. Launching MASIM Serie L and Serie S:
Improved stabilization & heat setting
Ultra-low stretching ratios
High temperature processes
Automatic stretching adjustment
Low stretching forces
High precision stretching
High flexibility in stretching ratios
Stretching temperature accuracy
Applications:
Technical film for electronics (BOPI, CPI, PTFE, Capacitor Ultra-thin film, Optical films),
Mono-material packaging for a better recyclability (BOPE…),
Battery Separator Film in Lithium-ion Batteries,
Specialty Packaging films,
High Barrier films,
Stone Paper… and many more.
Good to know :
Can be installed on most existing sequential Biax lines.
Building design requirements are identical those of a sequential line : no additional utilities, no special foundations, no additional space requirements.
