MSK-AFA-I Compact Tape Casting Film Coater With Vacuum Chuck 300mm×150mm
MSK-AFA-I Automatic Coater is widely used in various high-temperature coating research, such as ceramic films, crystal films, battery material films, special nano films, and can adapt to future development of film-forming technology under high temperature conditions. The substrate is fixed by means of vacuum adsorption, so that there is no wrinkle phenomenon on the substrate during the coating process, and the coating is even smoother. The width of the film remain unchanged, and the film thickness can be adjusted according to the micrometer above the doctor blade.

Sheet Film Coater w/ Vacuum Chuck ( 300Wx600L mm) & 250mm Doctor Blade - MSK-AFA-II-VC
MSK-AFA-II-VC is a Large Automatic Film Coater with a Vacuum chuck ( 300 mm W x 600mm L) designed to produce films with consistent thickness by using thickness adjustable applicators. It has a unique driving system to produce a smooth coating on all types of materials. The vacuum chuck is built in to hold the substrate sheet in place, which is particularly useful when coating on the thin substrate and making uniform tape casting. One 250 mm width gap adjustable applicator is included. This machine can be used for research on SOFC and Li-Ion battery electrode coating.

Application Notes |
- Pic.1 and 2 show coated cathode and anode for Li-Ion batteries. Please click here to see how to
- It is recommended to operate the coater under a fume hood. (Click Pic.3 for detail.)
- You need a vacuum mixer to make uniform coatings (Click Pic.4 for detail.)
- You may need a Slurry Viscosity Tester to make coatings consistent (Click Pic.5 for detail.)
- You may need a vacuum oven to dry the films and remove the binder after coating. (Click Pic.6 for detail.)
- Rolling pressing is necessary to ensure good density and adhesion of electrode materials to the current collector substrate after coating. Please select a rolling press from here. (Click Pic.7 for detail.)
