Abstract

See full text

Methods and equipment to reduce or eliminate metal edge-pick-off defects in freshly metallized polymeric film rolls are disclosed. The method may include the formation of a “raised edge” such that the ingress of air and/or oxygen gas into the ends of the wound freshly-metallized roll is blocked or impeded, thus reducing oxidation of the metal. This method significantly reduces the amount of metal pick-off defects and resulting quality and productivity losses due to scrapping of such defective metallized film.
