SAM (Sung An Machinery Co., Ltd.) held its inaugural open house at its new R & D Center located at company headquarters in South Korea last week.  The event was held on April 22, 2016 and hosted by Mr. Dong Seong Shin, President of SAM.  Conveniently scheduled prior to Chinaplas, currently being held in Shanghai from April 25 to 28th, SAM’s event attracted over 50 key customers and industry partners from all over the world.    Participants were presented with an in depth tour of the new R & D Center and SAM’s Solution Coating Lab as well as SAM Printed Electronics Lab and overall manufacturing facility during the one day event.   SAM will open its doors to an additional 140 guests on Friday, April 29th for visitors attending Chinaplas.

SAM’s Solution Coating Lab opened in March 2016 at the R & D Center.  The lab’s pilot coating machine is designed for running water and solvent based, 100% solids, and hot melt coatings with a maximum width of 1,060 mm at 600 meters per minute (bypass speeds up to 1,000 meters per minute). The line offers modular coating capabilities of slot die, micro gravure, pressurized chamber doctor blade, direct/reverse/offset gravure, S-knife (comma), reverse roll, semi-flexo, 5-roll and transfer roll to start. The line includes a 22 meter, 7 zone flotation and roll support dryer, which is one of the largest and most versatile in the industry. Unique features of the machine line are automatic turrets at the primary unwind and winder for continuous running. Additional features include a secondary unwind for wet and dry laminations, corona treatment, web cleaning and UV curing.   

Demonstrations during the open house included high speed coating via a smooth roll coater as well as automatic high speed transfers at the unwind and winder.  Trials were presented by Mr. Danny Ryu, Director of SAM Solution Coating Lab and by Mr. Heiss Kang, Director of Sales for SAM.
