Doctor Blade Coating Film Tester

The blade coating tester uses a motor to drive the blade to move uniformly over the substrate, spreading the coating into an even film. It is used to simulate the coating process, testing the leveling, hiding power, and film thickness consistency of coatings. It is applied in the quality assessment and production process adjustments of coatings for inks, paper, and plastic films.
Selection
Select the coating width based on common substrate dimensions, and consider the viscosity range of the coating to match the adjustment precision of the blade gap. It must be compatible with laboratory power specifications, and the blade material should be resistant to sample corrosion. Operational stability is ensured by the motor type and control system, while the structural design affects ease of operation.
