CoreFlow’s solution for flexible substrate allows :

• Vertical axis flattening capability of ±5μm - ±25μm depending on web material, thickness and tension
• Non-contact between web and aero-mechanical surfaces ensuring no bottom-side contamination or mechanical damage to the web
• Maintaining tension uniformity along the web in conjunction with the R2R system
• Ability to control the web temperature through conductive heating from aeromechanical surfaces via very thin air layers
• Uniform temperature distribution – no hot spots
• Fast thermal response due to a relatively small air gap
• Thermal decoupling of media from the support system
• Can be operated under vacuum conditions (down to 20 Torr. abs.)
