Compact Desktop Coater

Desktop Coaters use a motor-driven blade or roller to uniformly apply liquid or slurry onto the surface of a substrate. They are used in laboratories for preparing thin film samples and are suitable for coating process development and quality control of materials such as paints and adhesives.
Selection
Select the coating width based on common substrate dimensions, and determine the blade gap or roller type in combination with sample viscosity. Consider the drying method to match experimental needs, pay attention to the corrosion resistance of the equipment material and the ease of operation, and refer to the coating thickness range in practical application scenarios.

How to choose a laboratory coater? Which one should you buy: wire bar, scraper, or slot die?
This article introduces three methods for selecting laboratory coating machines: wire bar coating is suitable for low-viscosity coatings, offering low cost and simple operation; blade coating is ideal for medium-to-high viscosity slurries or those containing particles, with a wide range of film thickness control; slot-die coating provides the highest precision and is suitable for high-end applications such as electronic films.
Comparison of Coating Accuracy between Laboratory Blade Coater and Slot Die Coater
