News Contact ABOUT PRODUCTS PILOT PLANT CUSTOMER SERVICE SUSTAINABLE BARRIER COATING ROI CALCULATION INVO® Tip Metering Element Realizing the Greatest Savings Potential in Coating UMV has developed an innovative and cost-saving metering element, the INVO® Tip. The INVO® Tip is a soft polymeric metering element that provides extremely consistent coverage and smoothness while reducing operating costs. A polymeric tip must never run dry against the sheet since it will burn and all benefits are lost. UMV has solved this issue with the patented and award-winning design of the INVO® Tip. UMV now makes this unique product, the INVO® Tip, available to all customers. Experience from INVO® Tip mills, shows that it is possible to achieve substantial savings in feedstock, coating color and ­energy with equal or better quality by using the INVO® Tip. Many mills are using conventional, energy-consuming ­techniques, such as air-knife and curtain coater, to achieve good ­fiber ­coverage. INVO® Tip can do the job and ­substantially reduce ­energy consumption and increase production output. ­Additionally, it is possible to utilize a cheaper coating color giving equal or better coating quality than before. INVO® Tip can be installed in all existing coaters.
