Wire Rod Applicator Coater

The wire bar Coater applies coatings by rolling a metal rod wound with wire across the substrate surface, using the gaps between the wires to control the coating thickness. It is used in laboratories to simulate blade coating processes, preparing uniform coating samples on materials such as paper and films.
Selection
Select the wire rod specification based on the viscosity of the coating: use a fine wire diameter for low viscosity and a coarse wire diameter for high viscosity. Consider matching the substrate width with the length of the wire rod. Stainless steel material is suitable for most solvent-based coatings, and the required experimental accuracy determines the processing precision of the wire rod.
