Baker Film Applicator vf2145 d44 12

This document describes Baker film applicators used to apply paint films of predefined thicknesses onto flat substrates. The applicators are available in various widths and film thickness options. They are made of stainless steel to withstand acids and bases. The applicators provide consistent, precise film application within a tolerance of ±2 μm and are calibrated annually to maintain accuracy. Proper use and storage methods are outlined to preserve the precision instrument.

SPECIFICATIONS

Material : DAIDO 440C medical grade Martensitic stainless tool steel.


Sub Zero Vacuum hardened (+1756°C to -70°C), hardness HRC 55 (through hardened*)
& tempered.
Surface treatment : polished
Overall accuracy : ± 2 µm.
Accuracy : better than 3 micron
Outer dimensions : 100 x 22 x 22 mm / 120 x 22 x 22 mm

*Through hardening versus Case-hardening or surface hardening.


Through-hardening means the metal uniformly is hardened throughout the piece. Case- or surface (face /
frame) hardening only hardens the top layer of the metal. Once the top layer is degraded excessive wear and
tear will occur on the product limiting its life time and affecting accuracy.

USE

Select the appropriate gap and place the applicator on a plane smooth surface such as a
glass plate. Apply a sample of paint in the centre of the Baker applicator near the correct
opening. Draw down the applicator over the surface.
Due to physical reasons the max. film attainable wet film thickness is not equal to the
gap depth. Deposited film thickness may vary from 40% to 80% of the clearance/gap
depth. Dry film thickness will be lower than wet thickness due solvent/water
evaporation.

SPECIAL CARE

• Though robust in design, this instrument is precision-machined. Never drop it or knock it over
• Always clean the instrument after use.
• Only use non-corrosive solvents to clean the instrument. Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to dry it.
• Never clean the instrument by any mechanical means such as a wire brush or abrasive paper. This may
cause, just like the use of aggressive cleaning agents, permanent damage.
• When stored for a long period of time, wrap the instrument in oil paper
• We recommend annual calibration.
