The ZR is the most versatile of machines engineered for advanced automation, high throughput, and quick changeovers. Harris & Bruno International has revolutionized offline coating by introducing ExcelCoat, a workhorse of a machine built with high-quality components that can replace multiple UV coaters and meet modern production speeds.
