Description

​

The Multicoater combines four important techniques into one robotic and modular platform, eliminating the need to install individual equipment for inkjet printing, electrospinning,

(ultrasonic) spray coating and dip coating. It’s a matter of plug n play. You save on both cost and work space! Significantly.

 

At times more than one thin film preparation technique will be needed for device engineering and sample preparation, and it can be a headache switching from one platform to another. Perhaps involving moving from one work bench or laboratory to another; from one environment to the other, for example from an inert environment at below room temperature to atmospheric conditions above room temperature. This can introduce uncertainty and unnecessary stress into your R&D. The Multicoater is designed to simplify your thin film preparation from solution processed materials, offering you the flexibility you need to realise your full potential in applied science and technology. All at a price that is the most competitive in the market.

 

Equiped with a user friendly software for process automation and precise control of the film forming and coating steps, the MultiCoater makes your work simpler, faster, and more effective while ensuring quality output.

 

The usefulness of the MultiCoater to your R&D is further enhanced by a selection of pre- and post-coating modules such as furnaces, UV lamp, driers, ultrasonic baths, automate chemical/material injection,  and beaker racks. This allows the Multicoater to perform fully automated inline thin film fabrication.

 

You do not need to purchase all the modules, only what you need at the moment, for example ultrasonic spray coating. Other thin film and coating modules or accessories can be added as the need arises for a little extra cost: the base unit, which includes the robotic arm, software, the housing/stage, sockets for the different modules and their enabling electronics, need no modification. Therefore your ability to employ a new thin film preparation or pre-/post-coating  technique in order to enhance your product or try out something new is not curtailed, all it takes is to add the new module in question. Changing from one module to another is a matter of seconds. 

 

We can Customise the system to address your specific needs, for example add a new module, have the dip coating set up work as a chemical bath deposition platform or make provision for controlled atmosphere in the chamber. 

 

Furthermore, the Multicoater can be easily scaled up for pilot or industrial production.
