MSK-AFA-PD100 is a mini coater with a 100mm coating width flat slot die for slot die coating, or a 6um wire rod for micro gravure coating. It is an excellent tool to research film coating for OLED, perovskitesolar cells, and fuel cell proton exchange membranes.
SPECIFICATIONS
| Power |
- 110V - 240V AC 50/60Hz for worldwide use
- 280W
- UL /CSA certified power supply (110~ 240VAC - 24VDC) is separated from the coating unit
- The coating unit has 24VDC input and is driven by a 24VDC motor, which can be used under the Ar atmosphere glovebox to avoid arcing and short circuit.

Slot Die Head
|
- 100 mm width slot die head with 6 pecs shims with thickness 0.08, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 mm included
- different width <100mm) shim may available upon request at the extra cost
- Different-width shims are available upon request. ( 12- 50 mm width
- Minimum coating thickness: 5 microns (depending on slurry viscosity)
- Tube connection: M6 connector with 3mm OD tube from the middle of the head.
- Slot Die Heads are included with the "Slot Die Coating" and "Combination" Options.
|
Syringe Pump
|
- Built-in syringe pump with a variable speed in the range from 0.05 to 5.0 mm/s
- Touch screen panel for setting up the parameters
- One 20mL stainless steel syringe with a plastic plunger is included.
- A O.D. 3.2 mm PTFE tubing and its connection accessories are included.
- The syringe is included with the "Slot Die Coating" and "Combination" Options.
- We have changed the syringe fixture part since May, 2024, so regular plastic syringes are included instead of stainless steel ones.
|
|
Gap Control
|
- Two micrometer heads are built in the travel rod of the coater to adjust the gap between the slot die and the substrate
- Two digital drop indicators are provided to move with the slot die.
- The Micrometers are included in the "Slot Die Coating" and "Combination" Options.
- The flatness resolution of the vacuum chunk plate is around 5-10 um.
|
| Travel Speed & Length |
- Travel Speed: 0.05 - 30 mm/s adjustable via touch screen control panel
- Maximum coating area: 100 mm W x 100 mm L
|
Heated Vacuum Chuck
|
- Vacuum chuck made of aluminum alloy with small holes
- The small vacuum pump is built inside the coater and driven by a 24VDC motor
- Vacuum chuck Area: 150mm (W) x 130mm (L)
- Surface roughness ≤ 5 μm
- Surface flatness ≤ 15 μm
- Linear Motion Levelness ≤ 20 μm
- Heating elements are installed inside the chuck which can reach 120 ºC
- Precision digital temperature controller with ± 1ºC accuracy
|
| Control Panel |
- 4" color touchscreen panel to set coating speed, heating temperature, and syringe pump speed
|
Options

-
In order to achieve better coating by the slot die, the slurry's viscosity and dispersion is very important, please click the picture below to order a viscosity meter and dispersing machine and find the best parameter for your coating
|
| Compliance |
- CE certified
- NRTL or CSA certification is available upon request at extra cost
|
| Application Note |
- Coating thickness is not dependent on or equal to the gap between the slot die head and substrate.
- Usually, the gap shall be larger than the coating thickness. Coated thickness is strongly dependent on slurry viscosity, coating speed, and flow speed. ( Lower viscosity, low flow rate, and low speed will result in a thinner film. Please practice finding the best parameters which suitable for you
- Example 5% carbon+ polymer, viscosity: 500mPa·s, substrate: Al foil of 16 um,
- Gap: 200 um, Slurry feeding rate:: 0.1 ml/minute , Coating speed: 12mm/s
- Dry-coated film thickness: 5 um +/- 1 um
