The Ossila Adjustable Film Applicator (L3009D0) is a blade coating tool for producing large-area wet films with a controlled thickness. A single instrument combines a solution reservoir, a height-adjustable blade and micrometer gauges, so a broad range of film thicknesses can be coated without changing hardware.
The blade gap can be set anywhere from 0 mm to 10 mm using analog or digital micrometer heads. The analog gauge reads in 10 µm steps with 4 µm accuracy, while the digital gauge reads in 1 µm steps with 3 µm accuracy. The blade is calibrated to the gauge zero position, and its rounded tungsten carbide tip resists wear. A purpose-designed gap slot guides solution into the gap, and an integrated slurry spreader keeps the slurry inside the applicator and spreads it across the full width.
The body is available in hard-anodized 7075 aluminum, which offers an abrasion- and chemical-resistant surface, or in Stainless Steel 304 for coating materials that need higher chemical resistance. Coating widths of 100 mm and 200 mm are offered, with custom widths from 50 mm to 200 mm. The applicator works for hand coating and can also be paired with the Ossila Automatic Film Applicator for consistent coating speeds.
- Blade coating of reproducible large-area thin films in research laboratories.
- Producing wet film coatings across a wide thickness range with one instrument.
- Manual film coating where a simple, low-cost process is preferred.
- Automated coating at consistent speeds when used with the Ossila Automatic Film Applicator.
- Coating more aggressive solutions using the stainless steel version for higher chemical resistance.
