That’s why it pays to use a contract manufacturer like Conversion Technologies International. We’re an industry leader in rolled goods contract manufacturing thanks to our advanced modular manufacturing capabilities.

Advantages of Slot Die Coating

The basics of a slot die are simple, but the equipment’s flexibility offers an array of advantages. An operator feeds a web onto rollers, which eventually feed it through a die. Inside the die is a positive-pressure pump that applies a coating smoothly and evenly to the web. Then, the operator mounts the die on a movable carriage. Thus, you can adjust it with great precision.

Our system’s advantages are numerous – here are a few:

• Spreads coating across web surface with superior uniformity and consistency
• Incredibly precise positioning and dimension adjustment
• Drastically reduces waste and contamination of coating fluids
• Works well on a variety of web materials
