Demo Machine #9: Battery Cathode Coating – Modular Coater and Oven
Challenge
Conventional coating methods can cause thickness inconsistencies, material waste, and production inefficiencies. Challenges like these can also impact battery performance.
Solution
Delta ModTech’s Modular Coater is demonstrating precision battery cathode coating for lithium-ion applications.

Feautres:
- Slot die coating applies thin, uniform layers
- In-line gauging measures thickness in real time, ensuring instant
quality adjustments - The modular design allows you to apply multiple layers in a single pass,
whether wet-on-wet or wet-on-dry, offering greater process flexibility - Flotation drying with infrared preheat prevents defects and ensures
fast, even drying - Expandable oven system provides customizable drying zones, giving
you greater control over coating performance

Battery Cathode
Here, we used coated an aluminum substrate with a battery slurry. Which was then dried in our modular oven and rewound to be used in Demo# 13
