Film Conversion and Formats

Film Conversion and Formats

Dontech’s converting services can be customized to customer-unique specifications. We can slit a variety of materials to custom widths and rewind to custom lengths or roll sizes. Protective masks can be applied to the front and rear surfaces of the film. Slitting solutions are frequently designed with our customer’s manufacturing systems in mind.

Product Overview

PERFORMANCE ENHANCING DESIGN ELEMENTS

FILM CONVERSION CAPABILITIES

Films can be supplied in roll format or can be converted into sheets or final parts. Dontech can slit roll materials down to custom widths. Common roll widths include:

Imperial

  • 10″
  • 12″
  • 20.5″
  • 24″
  • 36″

 

Metric

  • 250 mm
  • 500 mm
  • 1,000 mm


Protective masking can be applied to one or both surfaces. Dontech can suggest appropriate masking based on the substrate and coating. Optical and non-optical pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) with a release liner can be applied to either surface of the film to allow for easy installation into the next higher assembly. Rolls of similar and different materials can be optically and non-optically laminated. Custom substrates with thick film hard coatings, custom thicknesses, and unique laminations are available, subject to minimum run and setup requirements.

Rolls can also be converted into sheets or final parts. Standard sheet sizes are dependent on materials and range from 8” x 10” hand sheets to 18″ x 24″. More complex shapes can be converted with laser or die cutting. Coatings can be laser ablated or photo-etched. Products can be cleanroom packaged. We can integrate our coated and converted films into the next higher assembly or system, as needed by our customers.
