Paper Coating Rod

The wire rod is a coating tool used to evenly scrape a coating onto the surface of paper, forming a wet film for detecting coating thickness and uniformity. Its principle is based on controlling the coating amount through the depth of the grooves on the wire rod. During operation, the wire rod is pulled to spread the coating. It is applied in coating experiments and quality control for paper and films, aiding in the adjustment of coating process parameters.
