Slot-die coating has seen a great increase in lab-scale R&D applications in recent years, as researchers strive for more consistent experimental results and rapid scaling of new additive manufacturing processes to roll-to-roll and sheet-to-sheet production. As a result, FOM Technologies coating equipment is now supporting cutting-edge research into 3rd generation solar cells, OLED and electrochromic devices, fuel cells, batteries, sensors, membranes, printed electronics, conductive thin films, and much more.
