Benefits
- Charts up to A3 and scrub size max.
- Ideal for coating laboratories, paint production, surface finishing, and powder coating.
- Variable factors like the shear rate and the weight of the applicator are stabilised.
- Over the complete surface the film thickness is even.
- Samples created with the Automatic film applicator are reproducible, making it possible to produce a large number of identical laboratory precision draw downs in a short period of time.
- Easy intuitive operating interface with Triple i Control (Intelligent Illumination Interface).
- All models can be used in combination with either standard block type film applicators such as bird/baker models, or spiral bar type film applicators (wire wound rod type) depending on the configuration chosen.
- Meets ASTM D823 standards.
- Paper Clamp / Vacuum manually operable.
- Drying time recorder option.
- Preset range option.
- Full colour display.
- Easy to update software.
