Wire Bar Testing Machine

The wire rod Coater uses a motor to drive a precision wire rod to scrape and coat evenly on the substrate surface, forming a wet film with uniform thickness. It is used for testing the hiding power, leveling, and color uniformity of coatings and inks. During operation, the substrate is fixed, and a wire rod with the corresponding diameter is selected for coating, after which the state of the coating is observed.
Selection
When selecting, confirm the viscosity range of the test material. The diameter of the wire rod must match the coating thickness requirements. Consider the substrate type to adapt to wire rods of different materials. Choose between manual or automatic models based on the testing volume. Verify the accuracy grade of the wire rod and the adjustment range of the coating speed to ensure the equipment meets conventional testing standards.
