Manual Coating Applicator

A manual drawdown Coater forms a uniform wet film by smoothly scraping a blade across a substrate at a constant speed. It is used in laboratories to simulate coating processes and test properties such as leveling and hiding power of coatings. It is suitable for quality control in industries such as inks and paper.
Selection
When selecting, consider the substrate type and coating thickness to match the gap range of the Coater. The blade material should be corrosion-resistant, with a length covering the sample width. Operational convenience and cleaning difficulty affect usage efficiency; choose specifications based on actual needs.

The dual-blade coater employs a two-step method of pre-coating and precision coating to eliminate bubble defects during the coating process.
