Auxiliary Equipment for Coating Dies
Precision Die Systems has full on-site manufacturing capabilities with machine tool research and development, wet lab, and analytical tool facilities at their headquarters and manufacturing facility. Coating slot dies are used for a variety of techniques including direct, indirect, tensioned web, curtain, lane, multi-layer, and continuous and intermittent coatings.
Fixed Lip Slot Dies
A fixed lip slot die is a precision tool used in the manufacturing of various products such as films, coatings, and adhesives. It is designed to provide a consistent and uniform flow of material onto a substrate, resulting in high-quality end products. If you are in need of a fixed lip slot die for your manufacturing process, we can help you find the right one for your specific needs.
Flexible Lip Slot Die
A flexible lip slot die is a versatile tool that can be used in variety of applications. It allows for precise control of coating thickness and uniformity, making it ideal for use in industries such as electronics, automotive, and packaging. The flexibility of the die also allows for easy adjustment and customization to meet specific production needs.
​
Flexible Lip slot dies are typically used to coat fluids that experience change in viscosity during the coating process or to provide variable coating capability across a range of products.
A slot die coater or coating station is a crucial tool in the manufacturing industry. It is used to apply a uniform and precise coating of liquid or viscous material onto a substrate into an existing industrial web or roll-to-roll manufacturing line. This method is preferred over other coating techniques due to its high accuracy, consistency, and efficiency. The slot die coating station is widely used in various industries such as electronics, renewable energy, automotive, and medical devices.
