STRATO-L

Experience unmatched productivity with STRATO-L – The ultimate double-side profile lamination machine

Are you looking for a breakthrough in lamination technology? Meet STRATO-L, the most advanced high-running profile wrapping machine that is redefining the standards of efficiency in the world of profile lamination. Whether you’re a high-output manufacturer or simply seeking to streamline your production line, this state-of-the-art system delivers optimal results with double-sided profile wrapping, taking your output to a whole new level compared to conventional systems.
In today’s competitive manufacturing environment, companies often face a choice between machines that offer maximum flexibility or those optimized for sheer production speed. STRATO-L excels at handling large volumes with exceptional speed and doubled output of foiled linear meters. Its advanced process control ensures every parameter is perfectly maintained even when the machine is operating at high speeds. In essence, STRATO-L transforms your production process into an efficient, high-output operation with two side profile wrapping technology.

So, what exactly does double side lamination entail?
Simply put, it means that your PVC or aluminium profiles are laminated on both sides simultaneously. The innovative design of STRATO-L integrates two complete lamination systems on one solid machine frame. This dual-function setup ensures that every single meter of your profile is wrapped with decorative foils on both sides. No extra handling or set-up required. Imagine producing twice the number of laminated linear metres without doubling your effort. This is the promise of a true double side wrapping machine. A device engineered not only for speed but for precision and uninterrupted output.
Embracing this modern approach of two side lamination has several key benefits. First and foremost, your production capacity effectively doubles as you bid farewell to outdated methods that required running the same profile twice to achieve full finishing. With STRATO-L, you gain a remarkable efficiency boost, reducing downtime and labour costs significantly. The machine’s design helps you maintain a continuous flow of production, ensuring that every stage, from the application of foil to the final cut, is performed seamlessly and automatically.

One of the standout features of STRATO-L is its exclusive slot nozzle technology developed by WPR. This technology of vertical glue heads mounted on the side of the machine plays a crucial role in ensuring flawless application of the adhesive and foil to the profiles. Here’s how it works to your advantage:
• Easy setup: The design makes both sides of the profile easily accessible, allowing for quick and straightforward setup.
• Stable profile guidance: With primer applied on the sides, the profiles are securely guided through the transport wheels, enhancing overall stability.
• Simplified quality control: Since both surfaces are clearly visible during the lamination process, ensuring top-quality output becomes an effortless task.

Quality control has never been more precise
STRATO-L is the first dual foiling system to feature automatic process control as a standard. A state-of-the-art sensor system continuously monitors critical lamination parameters such as process temperatures and air humidity. In compliance with industry standards, for instance, the parameters recommended by the Gütegemeinschaft Kunststoff-Fensterprofilsysteme, every detail is digitally recorded and readily accessible. Should any temperature fluctuations occur, the machine automatically adjusts its heating elements to maintain optimal performance. This means production remains consistent, and manual interventions are minimized, allowing operators to focus on maintaining a smooth production run.

The benefits of this controlled quality extend beyond operational efficiency
Your customers receive flawlessly laminated profiles, and you enjoy significant cost savings. Fewer defective bars mean less time spent on rework, reduced waste of film, adhesive, and raw materials, and ultimately fewer product complaints. The cost efficiency of STRATO-L is evident not only in higher output but also in lower operational expenses, a key factor for any thriving production facility.

Energy consumption is a major consideration in lamination lines, and STRATO-L is built to be energy-efficient. Unlike conventional machines that keep all heating elements active continuously, STRATO-L’s intelligent control system engages IR lamps and heat guns only when needed to sustain the desired process parameters—resulting in substantial energy savings. Moreover, the system’s innovative eco modes for both the primer application and the hot glue melter drastically reduce wastage during production pauses. Whether it’s preventing drying out of felts or protecting PUR hot melt adhesive from overheating, every feature is designed to minimize material loss.

Another remarkable feature is the optional automatic foil cutter, a solution to the perennial problem of excess foil tails. By recognizing the final incoming profile in a production batch, it precisely cuts the foil immediately after the last bar, ensuring no material goes to waste. Quick set-up times further enhance the STRATO-L experience.

Behind the scenes, STRATO-L incorporates breakthrough technical developments that solidify its position as a leader in double-side profile lamination. One such innovation is the ROTOR automatic primer dosing system. Precision is key when applying low-VOC primers, and the ROTOR system uses hose squeeze pumps, similar to those in the healthcare industry, to deliver the primer with impeccable accuracy. Real-time monitoring via webcams and UV lighting within the primer cabin ensures that every profile receives the perfect coating, enhancing both product quality and operator safety.

Furthermore, the machine’s profile separation system has been completely redesigned. The new setup offers lightning-fast positioning of the guillotine and a clean, consistent foil cut between profiles, even at high speeds. This ensures the active work area is optimized and contributes to the machine’s overall efficiency.

Ready for the future
STRATO-L is also fully integrated with Industry 4.0 technologies. All process data, including batch numbers, run times, process temperatures, and more can be digitally archived and even linked directly to your ERP system. This connectivity not only simplifies production tracking but also paves the way for remote maintenance and fault diagnosis, ensuring that help is always just a click away.
