Laboratory Rod Film Applicator

The experimental rod Coater uses a graduated metal rod to roll uniformly over the substrate surface, creating a wet film of even thickness. It controls the quantitative transfer of the coating through the gaps in the rod, simulating the blade coating process in the laboratory to test properties such as leveling and hiding power of the coating.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the rod material to the substrate type, choose the gap size based on the viscosity range, determine the rod length according to the sample volume compatibility, decide between manual or electric operation based on the frequency of use, assess coating uniformity by examining the rod's machining precision, and configure additional features such as temperature control according to the testing requirements.
