Drawdown Coater

Fixed Speed Drawdown Coater

Motorized Wire Bar (also called Mayer Bar) Drawdown Coaters are precision sample preparation machines. They are designed to provide both large and small laboratories with an affordable tool to make consistent, repeatable, coated samples. The lab coater features a coating bed that uses a sheet of float plate glass to provide consistent, smooth coatings. The simple bar loading slots and swing arm design makes the machine easy to use and cleanup a snap. Additionally, foam sheets are provided to accommodate various coating needs.

The Fixed Speed Drawdown Coater provides machine-controlled preparation of laboratory samples for adhesive, coating, ink and sealant testing. It's simple operation and lack of adjustments makes it the perfect shop floor tool to create consistent samples as well as greatly reducing the "human" interface for improved repeatability.
