PTL-SC-6-LD 6-Position Automated SILAR Coating System with Programmable Dip Cycles and Heating up to 80°C
The PTL-SC-6-LD is engineered to streamline the SILAR (Successive Ion Layer Adsorption and Reaction) thin film coating process by automating the repetitive dipping steps that are traditionally performed manually. This automation significantly reduces operator fatigue and minimizes errors related to inconsistent dip durations and cycle counts, which can extend over hours in manual operation.
This system accommodates six sample holders, each capable of holding multiple substrates, and allows precise programming of dipping parameters including speed, dip duration, retrieval speed, and drying time for each beaker station independently. A single integrated hot plate heats all six glass beakers simultaneously up to 80°C, enabling temperature-controlled chemical reactions during the coating process.
주요 기능
- Stepper motor-driven lead screw actuator for precise and repeatable dipping motion.
- Programmable dip duration from 0 to 99 seconds, minutes, or hours with adjustable speed from 1 to 12 mm/s per beaker station.
- Six 150 ml glass beakers included, heated uniformly by a bottom hot plate up to 80°C with ±1°C temperature control accuracy.
- Sample holder sets can load up to 18 samples total, with three fixtures each holding six slides.
- LED display control unit with memory for eight programs to store different dipping protocols.
- Power input: single-phase 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, maximum 600 W including heater.
- All electrical components UL certified; machine can be tested for TUV, CSA, or UL compliance at additional cost.

대표적인 적용 분야
This system is ideal for researchers and laboratories performing SILAR thin film deposition on glass substrates, enabling precise control over film thickness and uniformity through automated dipping cycles. It supports temperature-sensitive chemical reactions by heating the solutions, making it suitable for semiconductor, photovoltaic, and sensor material development.
구성 및 작동 안내
The unit includes six glass beakers and sample holders but requires the user to install a power plug compatible with local standards. For enhanced film adhesion, substrate pre-treatment such as plasma cleaning is recommended. The coater should be operated inside a fume hood if the solutions emit vapors during dipping. Optional compliance testing for TUV, CSA, or UL certification can be arranged at additional cost.
