Film Thickness Coating Applicator

The film applicator forms a uniform wet film on the substrate through mechanical blade coating, simulating the actual coating process. Its principle involves using precisely machined grooves or gaps to control the coating thickness, enabling the rapid preparation of test samples for evaluating properties such as hiding power and leveling in coatings and inks.
Selection
When selecting, consider the substrate flatness and size compatibility with the coating applicator width. Choose a model with an appropriate gap depth based on the viscosity of the material to be tested. Pay attention to the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel material. Verify the straightness of the blade and the accuracy of the groove. Ensure that the laboratory temperature and humidity meet the standard operating conditions.
