Spin Coating Theory<\/h3>\nSpin coating is a procedure used to deposit uniform thin films to flat substrates.\u00a0 Usually a small amount of coating solution is applied on the center of the substrate, which is either spinning at low speed or not spinning at all.\u00a0 The substrate is then rotated at high speed in order to spread the coating material by centrifugal force.\u00a0 A machine used for spin coating is called a spin coater, or simply spinner.\u00a0 Rotation is continued while the fluid spins off the edges of the substrate, until the desired thickness of the film is achieved. \u00a0From Wikipedia<\/a>, and Louisville University<\/a>.\n\n

SCK-300P + Vacuum Chuck<\/h4>\nThe SCK-300P makes use of the same innovative vacuum chuck design of the SCK-200P, but now uses an Arduino based Closed-loop<\/strong> Motor Interface Module (MiM<\/a>), and Brushless DC motor.\u00a0 This results in an increase speed resolution (+\/- 5 vs. +\/- 20 rpms for the SCK-200P), and the ability to directly set the desired speed, in 50 rpm increments, from 500 to 8,000 rpms<\/strong>.\u00a0 Like previous models, it comes with everything needed for R&D spin coating work of small substrates.\u00a0 A suitable Vacuum System needs to be provided by user<\/strong>.

SCK-300S “Low-Speed”<\/h4>\nThe SCK-300S (Stepper) was developed based on customers request for a version of the SCK-300P which can spin at very low speeds (10 – 5,000 rpms<\/strong>) with variable acceleration (0-800 rpms\/s). These features allows for casting of relatively thick films, or for other non-traditional Spin Coater uses. To meet this requirement, the SCK-300S employs a high precision Stepper motor, combined with an Arduino compatible stepper motor driver.\nAs such, it has a speed resolution of less than %1 rpms in the speed range from 10 – 5,000 rpms<\/strong>, in increments of 10 rpms.\u00a0 View video<\/a> of it in action.\u00a0\u00a0User Manual (pdf)\u00a0<\/a>\/\u00a0Specification<\/a>.\n<\/div><\/div>
