Small Coating Rod Small Coater

The small-scale rod Coater uses a motor to drive the rod to move uniformly across the substrate surface, spreading the coating evenly to form a wet film of a 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 the preparation and quality control of coatings for inks and paper.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the substrate type with the rod material, aligning the coating thickness range with the rod diameter, and ensuring motor stability affects coating uniformity. It is necessary to verify whether the maximum coating width of the equipment covers the sample size, while also paying attention to the ease of rod replacement and the footprint of the equipment.
