Adhesive Tape (BOPP) Production Line and Factory Setup

An adhesive tape (BOPP) production line is an integrated industrial system designed to apply adhesive uniformly onto BOPP film, dry the coating in a controlled tunnel, slit the jumbo rolls into smaller widths and rewind the finished tape rolls. The line produces pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes for packaging and industrial use.

From an industrial perspective, adhesive tape manufacturing is important because it combines precise coating of acrylic, hot-melt or rubber-based adhesives onto BOPP film (input width 100–1300 mm), controlled drying, high-speed slitting and rewinding to achieve consistent adhesion, unwind characteristics and roll quality. Typical line speed is 100–150 m/min.

Primary raw materials typically include BOPP film, acrylic adhesive, hot-melt adhesive or rubber-based adhesive, solvents (if applicable) and packaging materials. Core machinery consists of coating machines, drying tunnels with temperature and air-circulation control, slitting machines, rewinders and packaging equipment. Typical capacity up to 3000 rolls/day.

The Industrial Department supports investors establishing a new adhesive tape factory as well as existing plant owners requiring repair, overhaul, capacity expansion or automation of current lines. Projects can start from an empty site or from an operating facility that needs technical upgrading.

Whether the goal is a green-field turnkey adhesive tape plant in Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan or other regional markets, or the modernization of an existing line in Iran, engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning and ongoing technical support can be provided under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The adhesive tape production line is engineered as an integrated process system covering BOPP film preparation, coating, drying, slitting, rewinding and packaging. Design capacity is determined during the engineering phase; typical line speed is 100–150 m/min with input film width 100–1300 mm.

Product types include packaging tapes and industrial tapes of various widths and adhesive types. The overall process flow follows a defined sequence: preparation of BOPP base film, uniform adhesive coating, drying in a controlled tunnel, slitting of jumbo rolls, rewinding and packaging.

Main machinery groups include coating machines, drying tunnels, slitting machines, rewinders and packaging equipment. Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power, process water and ventilation/filtration for adhesive vapors.

Manpower requirements depend on the degree of automation. Quality control covers coating weight, adhesion, unwind force and packaging integrity. Finished rolls are stored under controlled conditions before distribution.

Technical Specifications

The following technical data represent typical ranges for an industrial adhesive tape production line. Final values are defined during basic and detailed engineering and may vary according to selected technology, level of automation, product portfolio and factory layout. For precise project-specific figures, contact the Industrial Department.

All figures are indicative. Detailed utility balances, equipment lists and layout drawings are prepared after process definition and capacity confirmation.

Products

An industrial adhesive tape production line can manufacture packaging and industrial BOPP tapes of various widths, adhesive types (acrylic, hot-melt, rubber-based) and roll lengths according to market requirements.

Raw Materials for Adhesive Tape Factory

Raw material selection and quality control are critical for adhesion performance and roll quality. The main materials used are described below.

Main Raw Materials

• BOPP film – Provides the backing with smooth, clean surface for good adhesion.
• Acrylic, hot-melt or rubber-based adhesive – Provides the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

Secondary / Optional Materials

• Solvents (if solvent-based systems are used), packaging materials and cartons

Storage and handling conditions must be controlled to preserve film and adhesive quality.

Manufacturing Process

The industrial adhesive tape process follows a defined sequence of unit operations.

1. Film Preparation – BOPP film with clean, smooth surface is prepared (input width 100–1300 mm).
2. Coating – Adhesive (acrylic, hot-melt or rubber-based) is applied uniformly onto the film by the coating machine.
3. Drying – Coated film passes through a drying tunnel with controlled temperature and air circulation to dry the adhesive.
4. Slitting – Jumbo rolls are slit into smaller widths on a slitting machine.
5. Rewinding and Packaging – Slit rolls are rewound and packaged.

Machinery & Equipment

Each main machine performs a specific function. Support is available for design, manufacturing or procurement, customization, installation, commissioning, repair, overhaul, refurbishment, automation and spare-parts supply according to the agreed project scope.

• Coating Machine – Applies adhesive uniformly (input width 100–1300 mm). Core machine for coating quality. Position: after film preparation. Quality impact: coating weight and uniformity determine adhesion performance. Maintenance: applicators, rollers and drives. Sahi Rasa provides specialized coating support and overhaul.
• Drying Tunnel – Dries the adhesive under controlled temperature and air flow. Position: after coating. Quality impact: drying profile affects residual solvent and adhesion. Maintenance: heaters, fans and sensors.
• Slitting Machine – Cuts jumbo rolls into desired widths. Position: after drying. Quality impact: cut quality and width accuracy. Maintenance: knives, tension systems and drives. Sahi Rasa provides specialized slitting support and overhaul.
• Rewinder – Rewinds finished rolls. Position: after slitting. Quality impact: roll tension and appearance. Maintenance: cores, drives and tension controls.
• Packaging Machine – Packages finished rolls. Position: end of line. Quality impact: pack integrity. Maintenance: sealing and handling systems.

Factory Layout & Building Requirements

Typical functional areas include film and adhesive storage, coating and drying hall, slitting and rewinding area, packaging, finished-goods warehouse, quality-control laboratory, utility rooms (including ventilation and filtration for adhesive vapors), maintenance workshop, staff facilities and loading docks. Layout must respect process flow and ventilation requirements. Exact area allocation is determined during the engineering phase according to capacity and product range.
