PRO-CAST® Series Precision
Casting/Coating Machines are routinely used worldwide
to produce thin and thick films and layered products
to precise tolerances using solvent or aqueous based slurries.
To successfully produce ceramic, metal and composite
tape cast products from viscous formulations (usually >
1000 mPa*s) continuously at rapid rates, requires a machine
that is designed to meet the latest state-of-the-art specifications.
The PRO-CAST® Series machines integrate a sturdy
structure with a solid, level platform that uniformly supports
the moving carrier casting/coating surface. In addition,
PRO-CAST® machines have a proven facility to deliver conditioned
fluids consistently to the casting/coating surface. One
casting/coating method is with an adjustable doctor blade assembly
with a micrometer adjustable gap positioned on a precise
casting/coating surface, which has been ground
and certified to a tolerance of at least ± 0.00026".
Precise, smooth control of the carrier or web speed is also essential to
insure uniform films. This is accomplished with the use of a
microprocessor controlled digital drive and closed loop feed
back system.
