Spiral wire Rod coater

The spiral wire-wound applicator controls the transfer amount of coating through the spiral grooves on the rod surface, forming a uniform wet film on the substrate. It is used in laboratories to simulate the blade coating process and test the leveling and hiding power of coatings. It is suitable for verifying the coating thickness of materials such as inks and paper.
Selection
Select the wire rod number based on the viscosity of the coating; higher viscosity requires larger numbers. Determine the rod length according to the substrate width. The spiral groove shape affects coating uniformity, with narrow grooves suitable for thin coatings. Consider the wear resistance of the material; stainless steel offers better durability than plastic. Match the speed of the coating machine with the wire rod specifications.

A wire-wound rod coater is a laboratory tool used for preparing uniform wet film coatings on flat substrates, widely applied in the production of samples in the coatings, inks, and printing industries.
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.
