ROTARflow
Setting the standard of reliable lining operations
High shine and relief metallic embellishment
It is well known that the industry standard technology for metallic embellishments, hot and cold foiling, is anything but environmentally friendly. Each year, thousands of tons of foil waste are sent to landfill or burned in incineration plants. Therefore, Druck & Chem has completely reinvented this process and created a truly sustainable solution that eliminates the need for foil altogether and uses radically less raw materials for the same output. And all this while creating outstanding, high shine and unique metallization effects for your packaging.

How does the ROTARflow work?
The moment ROTARflow detects a deviation from the established nominal weight of sealant, it modifies application parameters to bring the compound weight back to nominal. The necessary adjustments are performed immediately and automatically.
Compared to a manually controlled lining process, with weight control conducted once in several hours on a small number of samples, the ROTARflow-managed lining process delivers can ends with compound weight that is continuously under control.

Six-Sigma full process consistency
Process capacity in ROTARflow-controlled application reaches Process Capability (Ppk) of above 2 for full output of ends. In comparison, manual adjustment process can deliver Pp and Ppk values below 1 – for samples of production of ends.
ROTARflow allows the ends makers to achieve a more effective and efficient compound lining process, as it contributes to reduce non-quality cost, and increase reliability of delivered ends in the most demanding seaming processes.
Data-analytics and Digital Services
Digital services include monitorization of sealant film weights and application parameters in real time. Production data, compound weight and application parameters are accessible online.
Full traceability of lining parameters and compound weight to support your process when needed. Access to aggregate data on compound weights and lining parameters with information on production efficiency of lining operations that allow for detailed tracking of performance. Custom Reports to support quality management and decision-making on production capacities, preventive maintenance and much more.
