There are distinctions between Coaters and a Size Presses in their operation. These two categories can be
summed up as such:

Coaters
Coaters generally indicate that coating is being applied to the web surface. The coating is
generally defined as having pigments & binders along with many other chemicals. A simplified
example of coating is common latex house paint. Historically paper machinery coaters have used
a metering device to control the amount of coating applied to the web.

Size Presses
Size presses are generally defined as transferring a film from a roll to the web. There is a wide
variety of films applied with size presses. They range from water to corn starch at ~10% solids, to
coating at 64% solids to many other chemicals & solutions at varying solids.
