KSV NIMA Dip Coaters are robust computer-controlled instruments for precise thin film deposition. They provide solutions for dip coating of small to large samples in either single or multiple vessels that are suitable for both simple and complex vessel sequencing.
Dip Coaters
Product Description
- User independent. High resolution motorized movement and software control, simplify precision dipping experiments.
- Flexible programming of dipping sequences. The Windows-based Dip Coating software enables easy programming of a dipping sequence into either single or multiple vessels. The dipping sequences can be stored in the computer for further use. Computer-controlled deposition features include setting the substrate resting positions, immersion speed, submersion period, withdrawal speed, drying period and number of dip cycles.
- Vibration free immersion and withdrawal. The dipping mechanism enables vibration-free immersion and withdrawal of samples into the liquid vessels for precise and uniform coatings.
- Versatile and robust. The range of products and accessories enable various configurations fitting a wide range of experimental requirements. The accessories offer the capability for in-built temperature and pH control and magnetic stirring. The Dip Coaters are safe long-term investments that are made from durable materials.
Dip coating can be applied to a large variety of materials from the inorganic sols and inorganic nanoparticles to self-assembling biochemical systems. Applications include deposition electrical- and electro-optical layers, anti-reflective coatings, creating super hydrophobic surfaces and depositing biologically compatible coatings.
The following surface coatings can, for example, be created:
- Sol-gel coatings
- Layer-by-layer assemblies
- Self-assembled monolayers

Product details
KSV NIMA Dip Coaters are designed to deposit layers of materials in a controlled and repeatable way. It is possible to deposit films of various thicknesses, from monolayers to multilayered structures. Automated dippers are well suited to situations when deposition is based on kinetic factors and where good control is needed. For multilayer deposition, multi-vessel dipping enables automated deposition with good reproducibility.
The product range covers compact instruments for coating small samples in a single vessel to more complex systems enabling horizontal and vertical movement for multi-vessel operations and coating of large samples.
The range of Dip Coaters is divided into two types: single and multiple vessel systems. Single Vessel Dip Coaters are used to deposit from one solution while the Multiple Vessel Dip Coaters enable many solutions to be used that can include cleaning or rinsing. The ‘single vessel’ and ‘multi-vessel’ categories offer Small, Medium and Large systems to cater for a large range of sample sizes. A Single Vessel Dip Coater is also available for extra large samples. It is possible to choose from the Dip Coater systems suited to sample weight, sample size, number of samples, dipper movements and number of vessels required (see tables below for exact specifications).
All KSV NIMA Dip Coaters come complete with software, computer interface with USB connection, instruction manual and solution vessels.
