YOUR OWN PST LINE II
The World’s First In-line 3D Sputtering Coating System
The new state-of-the-art PST Line II is an in-line modular system for applying a stable, high-quality varnish and metal coating to different substrate materials. Its unparalleled capacity can automatically process up to 7800 pieces per hour while guaranteeing consistently excellent quality of finish, all while using significantly less varnish than traditional methods. It is the economical and eco-friendly answer to the needs of packaging manufacturers worldwide.
FEATURES
Go Where No Others Have Gone Before
The advantages of the automated PST Line II coating system are significant: dramatic economic savings in staff and material cost. Increased capacity, faster changeovers and a process free of operator variables and intervention. Introducing “next level” efficiency to both the varnishing and metallization process.

MODULAR DESIGN
A New Automated Approach To Coating & Metallization
The PST Line II consists of several modules integrated together and dependent on the customer’s requirement. Supported by Tapematic engineers, PST Line II can be customized according to the required workflow and products to achieve an optimal metallization and UV coating process.
TRAY CONCEPT
The Superlative Performance of an Innovative System
Up to 7800 pieces can be processed per hour. Trays travel along a conveyor between the different modules. Up to 13 parts are arranged on a single tray. PST Line II has the same modular concept as the PST Line I, expanding capacity from the larger trays and sputtering module. New formats are quick and easy to set-up. Different configurations can be stored in the system for instant recall and fast changeover, enabling short production runs for greater flexibility.
