I'm looking for some information and pointers running soft touch aqueous coating. I've ran several press test that have all been successful, however problems ensue during longer production runs. The viscosity on this stuff is around 50 seconds through a #2 zahn, yeah it's like glue. I'm running it using a Harris & Bruno anolix coating unit with a 200 line 8.6 bcm anolix roll. The major issue that I'm having seems to be foaming. I believe that the coating is being agitated from the anilox roll and then not getting into the cells thus causing voids. The voids alway show up on the gear side, opposite the fill side of the chamber. Any help would be appreciated!
