Abstract
AbstractSlide coating was invented in the photographic industry by Eastman Kodak. Owing to its capability to apply several layers at the same time, slide coating resulted in a large productivity increase when compared to slot coating. The chapter begins with a description of the process configuration and the associated equipment, followed by a discussion of the flow field of the coating bead. The main operating limits of slide coating are the onset of ribbing lines and several vortices. The onset of ribbing lines is documented with experimental data. The chapter closes with suggestions for optimizing the process.
