• Coating by wire wound bars or gap applicators.
• Two models offer coating areas of up to 170 x 250mm or 325 x 250mm.
• Multiple coatings in one operation for comparison purposes.
• Standard coating speeds infinitely variable between 2 and 15m/m in.

METER BAR COATING
Meter bars provide the simplest method of applying accurate, repeatable surface coatings on
to most substrates. A meter bar is manufactured by winding precisiondrawn stainless steel wire on to a stainless steel rod, resulting in a pattern of identically shaped grooves. These grooves then precisely control the wet film thickness. Close wound bars produce a coating thickness from 4 to 120μm. Higher coating weights up to 500μm can be obtained using spirally wound
bars. A three-part melinex/foam/rubber coating bed is supplied as standard. Vacuum, magnetic, heated and glass beds are also available, asdetailed on the back page.
