Printing Color Scraping Rod

The printing color drawdown bar features specific depth grooves on the surface of a metal rod, which are used to scrape ink onto paper or film to create a uniform color band. It is employed to test ink opacity, color consistency, and printability, making it suitable for print quality control and ink formulation adjustments.
Selection
Select the groove depth of the wire rod based on the thickness of the material to be tested, with common specifications ranging from 1 to 200 μm; match the wire diameter according to the viscosity of the ink; choose rigid stainless steel or flexible wire rods depending on the substrate flatness; laboratory environments require the use of constant temperature and humidity conditions.

The difference between a wire bar coater and a gap-type wet film applicator.
The wire-wound drawdown bar directly quantifies the coating through the gap between wires, making it suitable for thin coating preparation with high precision, particularly for low-viscosity fluids. In contrast, the gap-type wet film applicator indirectly controls film thickness through the groove depth, with the actual coating thickness significantly influenced by material properties, making it more suitable for high-viscosity coatings and thick film preparation.
