MSK-H500SR Multifunctional Film Coater for Sheet and Roll-to-Roll Coating up to 500 mm Width with Slot-Die and Blade Applicators, Heating to 120°C
The MSK-H500SR is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of laboratory-scale slurry coating processes, enabling both sheet-to-sheet and roll-to-roll film fabrication. Its 500 mm wide vacuum platform accommodates substrates up to 1000 mm in length, providing versatility for producing uniform coatings on electrode films used in batteries, perovskite solar cells, and fuel cells. This multifunctional coater supports a range of coating methods, including blade and slot-die techniques, to optimize film quality and thickness control.
The system integrates a vacuum chuck made from aluminum alloy with micro-sized holes to securely hold substrates during coating. Rapid infrared heating on the top side combined with resistance heating on the bottom side allows precise temperature control up to 120°C, with a heating rate of up to 1.2°C per second. A digital temperature controller maintains accuracy within ±1°C, ensuring consistent drying and curing conditions for coated films.

It enables precise slurry deposition on flexible substrates or rigid sheets, supporting advanced material formulation and process optimization in energy device fabrication.
Configuration and Operating Notes
The MSK-H500SR includes a 300 mm slot-die applicator and a vacuum platform with integrated heating. A syringe pump for slot-die coating is required but not included and must be purchased separately. A hybrid applicator combining doctor blade and slot-die functions is available as an optional upgrade. For enhanced sheet-to-sheet coating stability, an optional vacuum pump can be added. Operators should ensure proper substrate fixation and temperature settings to achieve uniform coatings. The system is CE certified, with additional certifications available on request.
