Excelcoat ZRW
Automated Offline/Inline
Web Coating System
“Coatings applied by our H&B ZRW Web Coater show even better resistance to scuffing or rubbing. This matters a lot for catalogs and pieces that move through the mail. You want the piece to look amazing when it reaches the customer’s hands – so durability matters.”
Tony Ferruzza, Head of Digital Print Operations

VERSATILE
The Harris & Bruno ExcelCoat ZRW is a robust fully automated inline/offline coater with several configuration options, including 22” and 42” sizes, AQ and UV chemistries, and simplex or duplex setups. Full automation means faster changeovers, lower labor costs, higher throughput, and consistent job-to-job quality. Storing and recalling recipes for specific applications is as easy as pushing a button; you can be running a high gloss one minute, and switch to a soft touch, or other specialty application, without having to manually adjust anything.
FULLY AUTOMATED
The fully automated ExcelCoat ZRW features a quick change sleeve system for both anilox and applicator rolls, which allows for job changes in minutes. Full automation means machine settings are set at the touch of a button, including wash up between coating chemistries. Equipped with the renowned H&B chamber/anilox system, the ZRW is perfect for flawless application of AQ coatings, UV coatings, and primers to fit every printers’ needs.
VALUE IS IN THE SPEEDY EASE OF USE
Reducing setup and increasing throughput is where the ZRW excels. The Quick-Change Sleeve System allows for fast changes of anilox and applicators, while our coating circulatror's automated wash cycle makes cleanup a breeze.
INNOVATIVE SAFETY FEATURES
Recessed drying lamps not only cure effectively, but create an environment to help prevent fires. The entry and exit of the dryer is fitted with web break detectors. Should a break in the web occur the lamps switch off, the drier shuts down immediately, the fans turn up to high speed, and the UV cassette shuttles close.
