Workshop: Master Slot-Die Coating & R2R Processing

 

Unlock the Power of Slot-Die Coating

Step into the world of advanced thin-film manufacturing with our hands-on workshop focused on slot-die coating and roll-to-roll (R2R) processing. You’ll gain practical skills to produce uniform, high-quality coatings on a variety of substrates, whether you’re working in the lab or scaling up to continuous production. The workshop covers everything from controlling fluid behavior and wet film formation to managing substrate tension and drying profiles, giving you the knowledge to confidently handle complex coating challenges.

Practical, Hands-On Learning

Our workshop emphasizes experiential learning, allowing you to work directly with laboratory slot-die coaters and roll-to-roll systems. You’ll learn to optimize critical process parameters such as flow rate, coating gap, web speed, and drying conditions. Beyond the basics, you’ll develop the skills to troubleshoot coating defects, manage multilayer stacks, and improve process stability and yield. This is ideal for participants who want to bridge the gap between theory and scalable production techniques.

Who Should Attend

This workshop is tailored for researchers, engineers, and startups looking to implement or refine slot-die coating and roll-to-roll processes. Whether you are just starting with thin-film coating or seeking to optimize an existing R2R line, you’ll leave with practical knowledge and hands-on experience that directly enhances production quality, efficiency, and reproducibility.

Why IRD Fuel Cells Chose to Test First

“As part of our search for coating equipment for our R&D department, we have been searching far and abroad. As such, we were fortunate to find infinityPV supplying coating equipment ‘in our backyard’ which has facilitated the decision making greatly. Before purchasing the coating equipment we asked for a test coating to make sure that the materials we use for our production would operate with the coater from InfinityPV.” — Peter Lund, IRD Fuel Cells

Which Slot-die Head Do YOU Need?

 

Your coating process is only as good as the head that delivers it. Whether you’re developing batteries, solar cells, fuel cells, pharmaceuticals, or something else, selecting the right slot-die head is critical for quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. In our guide, we break down how to evaluate your needs and help you understand which size and material slot-die head suits your application best.
