Thick Film Coater

The thick film Coater evenly spreads the coating onto the substrate surface using a blade, forming a thicker layer. It is used in laboratories to simulate industrial coating processes and test the leveling, hiding power, and drying effects of coatings. It is suitable for the preparation and quality control of coatings on materials such as inks, paper, and plastic films.
Selection
When selecting a thick film applicator, it is essential to consider the compatibility between the coating thickness range and the material to be tested. The blade material should be corrosion-resistant, and the substrate size must match the width of the applicator. Ease of operation and cleaning significantly impact efficiency, while environmental temperature and humidity conditions must meet the curing requirements of the coating material.

The heating film coater applies thick-film resistor paste onto the ceramic substrate.
The heating coating machine is used to apply thick film resistor paste on ceramic substrates. It reduces the viscosity of the paste through a heating platform and ensures uniform coating in conjunction with the coating head.
Application of Two-Step Method with Pre-Coating and Fine-Coating in Eliminating Bubble Defects for Dual-Blade Coater
The dual-blade coater employs a two-step method of pre-coating and precision coating to eliminate bubble defects during the coating process. In the pre-coating stage, high shear force is applied to break the bubbles in the slurry, causing them to rupture and rise to the surface. The precision coating stage then precisely controls the coating thickness, removing any remaining bubbles to form a uniform wet film.
