5 Operation: Film Application
5.1 Preparation
Before the apparatus is prepared for application, you should have decided:

which type of applicator you will be using

which substrate you will be using

which base plate you will be using

precision-vacuumplate

heatable precision-vacuumplate (only versions with special isolation plate)

heating plate (only versions with special isolation plate) or

glass plate
The heatable precision-vacuumplate and the heating plate can be used with all rods. If the
glass plate is used (i.e. no heatable application is performed), the following should be noted:
If using a wire-bar or profile rod, use the printing blanket side of the glass plate. For other
applicators, use the glass plate with the glass surface up (see chapter 6
“ Turning the glass
plate ” on page 27).
Depending on the coating material used, the test may only be carried out in a ventilated
environment.
Heating of substances can lead to risk of explosion, implosion or the release of toxic or
flammable gases. If heating of a product can lead to the release of hazardous
substances, it is necessary to use an appropriate extraction system.
During operation, the distance to walls and to other objects must be at least 10 cm.
5.2 Application with wire-bar or profile rod
When using the glass plate (i.e. in case of non-heatable applications) note the followings:

Make sure that the printing blanket side of the glass plate is facing up.

Ensure that the printing blanket is covered with the polyester mat.

Lift up the weight (7) and hinge it into the top position.
