Custom Precision Slot Die Coaters and Components

Integrate a Slot Die Coater to your Production

​

A slot die coater is typically part a larger coating system or production line. Slot die coaters are sought after due to their repeatability and accuracy. Versatility make them an ideal technology to integrate with existing coating lines. 

​​

Upgrade From Pilot Coating to Full-Scale Production

​​

Elevate your pilot lab's capabilities and seamlessly scale up to full production by integrating a versatile industrial slot die coater into your coating system. A slot die coater, also referred to as a slot die coating station, slot die positioner, or slot die coating machine (or coating station for short), is a key component within web-based or roll-to-roll coating systems, delivering precise, consistent, and uniform coatings for a wide range of applications.

Slot Die Positioner Station Parts

Coating Station Positioner Parts

The mounting equipment that places slot dies in close proximity to the backing roll has many pieces and parts that work in unison to maintain the die coating gap. 

 

As the important component that maintains the interaction between the roll and slot die, consideration of macro and micro adjustment features needs to be resolved. 

 

Whether pneumatic or servo controlled, PDS can provide precision manufactured parts to keep slot dies coating process positioner functional and optimized.
