BYK Gardner Automatic Film Applicator Model L BYK Gardner Automatic Film Applicator Model L It would take forever to paint your house with this machine, but it's perfect for laying down a uniform film for testing. The machine is in near pristine condition. I tested it, and all buttons function. The arm traverses the length of the work area then stops at the end. The return button returns it to the starting point. The vacuum pump works, and I was able to adjust traverse speed up and down. The machine comes from a closed pharmaceutical company. An automatic film applicator improves the consistency of a drawdown. When more than one operator is drawing down the same coating or ink, the dry film appearance will vary because of different drawdown techniques. Drawdown speed and pressure on the applicator tool will impact the results. Film thickness, gloss, opacity, and color can vary with differing film applicator techniques. BYK-Gardner offers a large selection of automatic film applicators. The film applicators can accommodate virtually all drawdown chart sizes, applicator bars or wire-wound rods. Film applicators are available with vacuum plates or clip board designs. The Automatic Film Applicator L has a large vacuum plate surface to accommodate all drawdown chart sizes. User selectable speeds from 50 to 500 mm/sec Real time display of applicator speed Built in vacuum plate and vacuum pump Two stroke lengths settings Remember: I'm not an expert on any subject. With regard to the equipment I sell, I am a full-time amateur and part-time idiot. My descriptions are simply accounts of my findings and observations while fumbling around with whatever contraption happens to come my way. They are not guarantees, warranties, endorsements, or Good Housekeeping Seals of Approval. Buy it or don't. Leave me out of the decision making process. A simple rule to follow on these auctions: Imagine that you're buying from an untrained monkey. With maybe better hygiene. Please email any questions. All equipment is entrusted to the smartest, most capable employee for testing. (OK, I work alone. Sue me.) In most cases, I can ship as soon as payment is received. As always, local pickups are welcome, at no charge! Thanks for looking!
