Slurry Coater
Precision Slurry Coating for Next-Generation Thin Films: Consistent Quality, Uniform Application.
Slurry Coating for Advanced Thin Film Production
The Slurry Coater is a fundamental wet film forming tool for the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater platform, enabling lab scale production of advanced functional thin films. This includes thin film batteries, fuel cells and printed solar cells. The Slurry Coater is used for applying a viscous mixture (ideal for non-newtonian liquids and suspensions) in the form of a slurry, accurately and uniformly, onto a substrate, ensuring consistent quality and performance. With continuous mixing of the slurry during processing, accomplished as the coating takes place over the backing roller of the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater, sedimentation of particles in the ink is prevented. Dosing of ink can be controlled via the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater pumping systems and it is possible to keep the ink under inert conditions.

How Does the Slurry Coater Work?
The Slurry Coater is a fundamental wet film forming tool for the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater platform enabling lab scale production of advanced functional thin films.
With its modular oven systems, the Laboratory Roll-to-Roll Coater secure efficient drying of the processed thin films using hot-air, inert gas, infrared or UV-curing.
Slurry Coating vs. Slot-die Coating
The slurry coater offers efficient coating with non-newtonian inks and inks with particles that may have a high density and a tendency to sediment through its simple technology. In contrast the slot-die coating provides a versatile and scalable solution. The slurry coater excels in uniform coating application for slurries, ideal for industries requiring consistency. On the other hand, slot-die coating offers flexibility and control, making it suitable for applications where varying thickness and materials are needed.
