In a small laboratory coater, the following key parameters and operating techniques are required to achieve effective application of EVA hot melt adhesives:
Temperature control: Ensure that the temperature of the coater is stable in the appropriate range to ensure the flow and curing speed of the hot melt adhesive.
Coating speed: Adjust the coating speed according to the coating material and process requirements to ensure uniform coating and moderate speed.
Pressure control: Control the pressure of the coating roller to match the viscosity of the coating material and the coating thickness to avoid uneven coating or missed coating caused by too high or too low pressure.
Substrate Treatment: Appropriate treatment of the substrate before coating, such as cleaning the surface, adjusting the surface tension, etc., to improve the coating effect and bond strength.
Laboratory Compact Coaters offer many advantages in EVA hot melt applications, such as flexibility and ease of operation, but they also face some challenges:
