Film Applicator

The film applicator evenly spreads the coating onto the substrate surface using a blade or roller, forming a smooth wet film. It is used in laboratories to simulate coating processes and test the leveling, hiding power, and drying behavior of coatings. It is suitable for the standard film preparation of samples such as inks, paper, and plastic films.
Selection
Select the blade gap range based on the thickness of common substrates, and determine the coating speed according to the sample viscosity. Consider matching the substrate size with the coating width, and opt for a heating plate when temperature control is required. Pay attention to the wear resistance of the blade material and the flatness of the platform, ensuring the operation interface is simple and user-friendly.
