A wire coater is a device used to apply glue or paint, usually in manual or automatic coating processes. According to different coating needs and application scenarios, wire bar coater can be divided into several types, among which some common types and their differences are as follows:

Hand wire coater: A hand wire coater is a handheld device that usually consists of a rod head and a handle. The operator holds the coater in hand and evenly applies the coating material to the target surface. Manual wire coater is suitable for small area, fine coating scenes, easy to operate, suitable for applications requiring precise control of coating amount and coating position.

The types and differences of line coater

Automatic wire coater: Automatic wire coater is a kind of equipment with automatic function, can realize the automation and continuity of the coating process. It usually includes a coater head and a coater system that can automatically coater according to set parameters and procedures. Automatic wire coater can increase the sales of manual coating film, also suitable for hot melt adhesive, film and other special materials coating scene, and can also be continuous coating, improve production efficiency.

The types and differences of line coater

Adjustable coating quantity line coater: This coater has the function of adjusting the coating quantity, can adjust the size of the opening of the coating head or the structure of the coating head according to the demand, so as to control the size of the coating quantity. The adjustable coater is suitable for applications with different coater requirements. It can flexibly adjust the coater quantity to adapt to different coater tasks. Wire bar coater with adjustable film thickness is not common, but there is another alternative is adjustable scraper coater, as shown below:

The types and differences of line coater

Special Purpose rod coater: In addition to the regular rod coater, there are some special purpose coater for specific applications. For example, some line coasters are designed for fine coating or fine line drawing, some for special coating or glue coating, some for special shape or material coating, etc.

The types and differences of these wire coater are mainly reflected in coating mode, coating amount control, degree of automation and applicable scene. According to the specific coating requirements and application requirements, the selection of suitable wire coater can improve the coating effect and work efficiency.
