Wire Rod Coating Applicator

The wire-wound applicator rolls a metal rod wound with stainless steel wire over the substrate surface, using the grooves between the wires to quantitatively transfer the coating and form a wet film. It is used in laboratories to simulate the blade coating process, controlling coating thickness for quality testing. It is suitable for standardized operations such as ink adhesion tests and paper ink absorption evaluations.
Selection
Select the wire diameter specification based on the substrate roughness; use a fine-wire rod for smooth surfaces. Match the wire diameter and winding gap according to the coating thickness requirements, and choose a thicker wire diameter for high-viscosity coatings. Consider using stainless steel material for easy cleaning, and opt for a model with a handle for manual operation. Perform a pre-coating test to verify coating uniformity.
