Various programs and settings in a simple display
Easy to program and check test conditions
Our spin coater's operation display shows real-time rpm and vacuum pressure. A variety of programs can be easily entered through the simple display.
The character display LCD module used in standard models can display up to 80 characters (20 characters x 4 lines). Depending on the specifications, the Customized models can display up to 160 characters (40 characters x 4 lines).

A spin coater is a device that uses the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation to form a coating film on a flat substrate. The ability of the spin coater and the environment setting based on the experience of the engineer using the spin coater have a great influence on how to obtain the ideal coating film.
The key to achieving this is the creation of a spinning program. ...
