Slot-Die Coating Solutions by FOM Technologies
Slot-die coating is a proven technology for the precise, scalable production of thick and thin films of almost any material. FOM Technologies is an industry leader in making this powerful technology available from lab-scale to pilot-scale form, empowering researchers to accelerate discoveries and bring breakthrough innovations closer to reality.
Why Slot-Die Coating?
- Uniform film thicknesses from 10 nm to >500 μm
- Quick to start & easy to use
- Simple, predictable film thickness control
- Easily scaled from a few cm² to tens of m² per minute
- Compatible with almost any material and viscosity
- Continuous, non-contact thin film coating process
- More precise, efficient and scalable than spin coating, blade coating, screen printing, and ink-jet printing
- Compatible with R2R and S2S production methods
- Nearly 100% material efficiency
