ScatterPro F
ScatterPro F for accurate uniform fibre scattering
The ScatterPro F enables accurate and efficient synthetic or natural fibrous material scattering for applications such as technical textiles, cladding, nonwoven composites, and other materials.
Versatile, uniform scattering of fibrous materials
The ScatterPro F is a versatile fiber scattering system featuring a rotating brush-off device to ensure precise scattering across the full product width.
One of many applications for this reliable and uniform scattering process is the scattering of short-staple-length (up to 8 mm) glass fiber or natural fibers ready for downstream processing to create flat panel composites. The ScatterPro F can be used with our powder scattering units to combine fibers with powdered binder.
Another common use for this industry-proven system is the application of recycled fibers into the core of composites, adding volume and weight into nonwoven composites.
Typical applications include:
Automotive – car interiors, truck/RV panels and walls, organo sheets
Construction – cladding, insulation, facades, panels
Recycling fibrous waste to produce new materials (a circular economy application)
Textiles – technical textiles, protective fabrics, geo textiles

How it works
ScatterPro F
The fiber material is fed to the scatter coater hopper by means of a vacuum or auger feeding device. Inside the hopper, the fiber is uniformly distributed and the level is kept constant during the scattering process.
For bulk materials that tend to bridge due to their flow properties, a specially designed agitator is installed above the metering roller (scattering roller) to prevent bridging.
The fiber material is taken up by the scattering roller and the excess removed by a rigid doctor blade.
The accurately dosed material is then conveyed by the roller to the rotary brush-off system. The counter rotating brush roller device cleans the roller and deposits the material onto the substrate or conveyor below.
