Shaft and Rod Laboratory Coater

The rod lab Coater forms a uniform wet film by rolling a precision metal rod over the substrate surface to spread the coating. It is used to simulate the blade coating process, test coating properties such as leveling and hiding power, and is suitable for laboratory sample preparation of materials like inks and paper.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the substrate thickness with the rod diameter specification, ensure the stainless steel material is resistant to solvent corrosion, use counterweights for manual operation to maintain stable pressure, and include a set of rods with different diameters to cover common coating thickness requirements.
