Wet Film Scraping Applicator

The wet film applicator uses a metal blade to smoothly scrape over the substrate surface, forming a wet film coating with uniform thickness. It is used for coating preparation of paints and inks, controlling the wet film thickness by adjusting the blade gap, and is intended for subsequent performance tests such as drying properties and hiding power.
Selection
Select the blade material based on the viscosity of the material to be tested: use stainless steel for high viscosity and plastic for low viscosity. Choose the width of the metering groove according to the testing standards, with common widths being 25/50/100 mm. Match the applicator specification based on the expected film thickness, typically ranging from 6-300 μm. Pay attention to the flatness of the substrate and the stability of the coating speed.

Selection of wet film thickness gauge range and accuracy requirements for comb teeth spacing.
When selecting a wet film thickness gauges, the key considerations are the measurement range and the accuracy of the comb teeth spacing. The range should cover the coating thickness with a slight margin to avoid being too small for measurement or too large, which could reduce resolution.
Wet film thickness gauge measures the wet film thickness of varnish.
The wet film thickness gauge is a mechanical tool used to measure the thickness of liquid varnish coatings. It operates by rolling the gauge so that the tips of its teeth contact the substrate and leave marks. The thickness value is then obtained by the operator reading the scale of the first tooth that becomes coated with the varnish.

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.
