REVERSE ROLLER COATING TECHNIQUE


 http://www.tciinc.com/portals/48/TechnicalCoating/Images/reverseRollCoating.gif 

In this procedure, the coating material is measured onto the applicator roller by precision setting of the gap between the upper metering roller and the application roller below it. The coating is 'wiped' off the application roller by the substrate as it passes around the support roller at the bottom. The diagram illustrates a 3-roll reverse roll coating process, although 4-roll versions are common.
