SE-KTQ-4-25 Four-Strip Adjustable Film Applicator with 25 mm Width for High-Throughput Multi-Composition Coating
The SE-KTQ-4-25 film applicator is engineered to facilitate efficient coating of multiple material compositions simultaneously, making it ideal for research and development in ceramic and battery electrode fabrication. This applicator features four separate strips, each 25 mm wide, allowing parallel deposition of different formulations in a single operation to accelerate material screening and optimization.
Operators can precisely control the wet film thickness by adjusting the blade clearance using micrometer heads, achieving thicknesses from 0 up to 3500 microns. The micrometers provide a resolution of 10 microns, ensuring reproducible and accurate coating layers. The applicator is constructed from SS304 stainless steel, offering robustness and resistance to corrosion during repeated use.
Key Features
- Four independent strips, each 25 mm wide, for multi-composition coating in one pass.
- Adjustable wet film thickness range from 0 to 3500 microns via micrometer blade clearance.
- Micrometer heads with 10 micron controllable accuracy for precise thickness setting.
- Standard overall width of 130 mm accommodating various substrate sizes.
- Durable SS304 stainless steel construction for long-term laboratory use.
- Optional digital micrometers available for enhanced measurement accuracy and instant unit conversion.

Typical Applications
This applicator is well suited for coating research samples in battery electrode development, ceramic material exploration, and other multi-composition thin film studies where simultaneous deposition of different formulations is required to increase throughput and comparative analysis efficiency.
Configuration & Operating Notes
The blade clearance is adjusted manually via micrometer heads; digital micrometer upgrades are available for improved precision and ease of reading. The applicator can be paired with a top casting coater featuring a vacuum bed of 200 mm or wider for enhanced coating stability. Replacement springs and other maintenance parts can be ordered separately to ensure long-term reliable operation.
