Handle-Type Film Applicator

The hand Coater evenly applies the coating onto the substrate surface through manual operation of a scraper, forming a wet film of specified thickness. It is used in laboratories to simulate coating processes, test the leveling, hiding power, and other properties of coatings, and is suitable for coating tests on materials such as paper and films.
Selection
When selecting a hand Coater, it is essential to consider the substrate type and size to match the coating width, choose the blade gap based on the desired coating thickness range, select an appropriate blade material according to the viscosity of the coating, and determine the structural design by balancing operational convenience with cleaning and maintenance requirements.
