Robust slot-die sheet coating system
The system is designed for the fast-and-easy coating of functional materials in laboratories aiming for multi-user high throughput research on topics such as organic and perovskite electronics, sensors and energy storage. Similar to the scalarSC tool the vector is a compact setup that can be easily installed inside a laminar flow hood or a glovebox. The vectorSC incorporates a proprietary design for excellent substrate flatness due to the microporous structure of the substrate holder. Additionally, we integrated the pump into the tool with enabled cloud-based software allowing for remote operation and diagnostics.
Step up from spin coating
Whether you are doing fundamental research or developing a new process for your product, the FOM vector is the perfect next step from spin coating toward medium-scale, industry-relevant processing where rigid and/or flexible substrates are required. The incorporation of a microporous substrate holder will provide homogeneous suction avoiding extra steps that are typically done to fixate the sample into the substrate. Together with the software integrated pump, the FOM vector will allow for high throughput, and accelerated workflow.
Simple handling and alignment
Both flexible and rigid substrates of up to 300×200 mm in size can be freely positioned on the high-flatness aluminium-made sample holder. The Infinite-step height and lateral position manual dial will allow for systematic, quick-reaction experimental runs and systematic studies where the operator has full control at all times.
