Straightforward design compatible with the Ossila Slot Die Coater
Slot die coating heads provide channels for the even distribution of solution across the coating width. The shape of the lips at the exit to the head can help to stabilize the coating bead and provide improved coating quality. Combined with the slot die shims, the slot die head can provide even coating across a wide range of different coating rates and solution viscosities.

Solution deposition through the slot die head can be managed by placing one or multiple slot die coater shims in between head pieces. This defines channel width which helps control pressure drop across the slot die head. Ossila Slot Die Coater Meniscus Guides can also be used to pin and guide the solution pathway, preventing unwanted spreading.
