Metering Rod Coater

A metering rod Coater controls the transfer amount of coating through a metal rod with surface graduations. As the rod rotates, it scrapes off excess coating, forming a uniform thin layer on the substrate. It is used for coating processes on paper and films to regulate coating thickness and uniformity.
Selection
When selecting, consider the substrate type and width, coating thickness range, and paint viscosity characteristics. Match the rod diameter and groove specifications, pay attention to the material's wear and corrosion resistance, and determine the machine configuration based on production speed and drying conditions.
