Single-sided ISO Bird-type Applicator

The single-sided ISO Bird applicator evenly applies coating onto one side of the substrate using an adjustable gap blade, forming a standardized wet film. It is used in laboratories to simulate printing and paper coating processes, and complies with ISO standards to ensure coating thickness consistency. It is suitable for quality control tasks such as ink adhesion tests and coating opacity evaluations.
Selection
When selecting, consider the compatibility between the substrate thickness range and the applicator gap. Stainless steel material ensures wear resistance, while the handle design affects operational stability. Verify ISO standard specifications and common coating thicknesses in the laboratory to ensure compatibility with existing substrate dimensions. Ease of cleaning and long-term dimensional stability should also be taken into account.

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.
