Maximize Efficiency and Precision with the Air Knife Pro
The Air Knife Pro for the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater employs a high-speed air stream to form a thin, consistent curtain of air or gas, which can be precisely directed over the substrate. This facilitates the drying of surfaces or rapid quenching of coated thin films without any physical contact.
Micrometer screws with display ensure precise positioning of the air knife over the element. Adjustable angles and distances ensure effective drying or quenching while maintaining the integrity of the coating process.
