Key Product Features

Coating & Extrusion - peer-reviewed research confirms the critical role of coating/extrusion processes in film-formation evaluation

Constant-Speed Servo Coating

The digital servo system coats the specimen at a uniform 20~100 mm/sec speed, with low vibration and consistent thickness.

Interchangeable Coating Adapters

Carries multiple Bar-Coaters and Applicators; bars and adapters are quickly changed by required film thickness.

Viscosity-Dependent Pressure Adjustment

Automatically adjusts the pressure load according to paint viscosity, forming a uniform film for both high- and low-viscosity materials.

Homing + Method Saving

Automatically returns to the home position after a test; test methods can be saved and reproduced, reducing repeated setup.

Vacuum/Heating Option

The vacuum plate fixes the specimen and exhausts solvent; a dedicated heating plate simulates curing conditions.

Precise Film Preparation
Uniform Coating Platform

The QM1200 automatic coater uses a digital servo system to coat solvent onto specimens at a uniform 20~100 mm/sec speed; low vibration ensures consistent film thickness. With a max. 360 mm stroke and a 300x490 mm glass platform, it supports quick change of multiple Bar-Coaters and applicators to suit paints of different viscosities and film-thickness requirements.

From lithium-battery cathode slurry to electronic encapsulation compounds - film uniformity directly affects the comparability of subsequent test data. An optional vacuum-fixing platform prevents specimen shift, and an optional heating platform enables continuous preparation from wet to dry film; test methods can be stored and recalled.

Designed for precise film preparation - servo constant-speed coating plus interchangeable applicators for assured film-thickness consistency.
