Micro-controller controlled film applicator, freely adjustable film application speeds, adjustable application lengths
The Film Applicator and Drying Time Recorder COATMASTER series is the enhanced successor of the worldwide established COATMASTER 509 MC is now available in four versions. An electromotive film applicator device is best used when the film thickness must be absolutely uniform across the entire surface. This enables a reliable statement about the relation of wet to dry film thickness, and the production of a larger number of exactly similar patterns. The automatic application process eliminates irregularities and inaccuracies that are inevitable when the film is applied manually. The film applicator and drying time recorder COATMASTER 510 is a compact combined film applicator and tester with membrane keyboard. The parallel drying test enables an objective comparisons of drying properties across different coating materials. Exchangeable specimen platforms, i.e. glass plate, vacuum suction and heated vacuum suction plates. Further options available, details on request.
481/I Test panel spraying applicator, without ATEX, equipped with up to 2 applicator guns
481/II Test panel spraying applicator, with ATEX, equipped with up to 2 applicator guns
The AUTOSPRAY 481 (type APL 1.2) is intended for the uniform and reproducible application of coating materials using an air atomizing spray gun with a flow cup. It is advisable to set it up in front of a corresponding vacuum wall or similar, the water tub should be at a max. height of 750 mm from the floor. The exact dimensions of the spray stand and the water tub must be specified when ordering. This machine is user-friendly, low-maintenance and mobile – versatile compact design and double-stop rollers enable the unit to be transported through a door of 800mm wide.
Produces 6 or 10 film strips of graded thicknesses in one operation. Film thickness range: 10 – 500 microns. Suitable for assessing paint properties in relation to film thickness: opacity, colour strength, drying properties etc.
A film applicator with variable gap height. Clearance adjustable in the range 0 – 1000 microns by means of a micrometer screw (accuracy 1 microns). Available for film widths 80/150/220 mm
The UNICOATER 409 is a budget-priced, motor-driven film applicator for defined and reproducible application of coating materials on very different plain substrates. Irregularities and inaccuracies inevitable when applying films by hand, are avoided using the UNICOATER 409. This results in the following important advantages: – an even and reproducible film thickness over the whole surface – the possibility to produce very quickly a large number of identical samples.
An inexpensive special film applicator with 4 heights of gaps for widths of film 13/40/60/90 mm. Standard gap heights 30/60/90/120 microns. Also available for other wet film thicknesses in the range from 15 – 2000 microns. Model 360 is made of corrosion resistant steel.
Well proven film applicator for any kind of film forming liquid. Particularly suitable for applying films to flexible substrates. Available for film widths 80/150/220 mm and wet film thicknesses between 10 and 200 microns. Made of stainless steel.
Even application of coating defined film thickness Applies coatings of even thickness on specimen panels.
The centrifugal paint-film applicator, Model 334 Smart is a bench mounted instrument, consisting of a sheet metal housing, touch panel, specimen holder with collecting trough and protective hood. The speed and the application time are continuously variable between (100 – 2,000)min-1 and (0 – 999)s. The selected speed is shown on the touch panel. At the end of the preset centrifugation time the applicator switches off automatically and the specimen can be taken out of the holder.
Purpose and application: The Model 334 Smart centrifugal paint-film applicator is used for producing uniform coats on test panels (edge length: 80 to 200 mm) for testing purposes. The advantages of this application method are the affordability (time savings) and its outstanding accuracy and reproducibility. This device is very helpful when extremely thin coatings require high coating thickness constancy.
Duplex film applicator for film widths 80/120/180/230 mm. Made of corrosion resistant steel. The two gaps can be chosen as desired from the range 15 – 2000 microns.
