The MEMCAST™ offers a significant advantage over traditional, non-automated methods of membrane casting:
- Compared to traditional methods, MEMCAST™ stands out as a time-saving and automated solution. It simplifies and expedites the membrane creating process, allowing the operator to allocate valuable time to more critical tasks.
- The MEMCAST™ requires minimal operator intervention, limiting variations and inconsistencies often encountered in manual processes. The MEMCAST™ guarantees quick and reproducible membranes.
- The MEMCAST™ is designed with the user’s convenience in mind. With easily adjustable settings for coating speed and temperature, it’s possible to produce smooth and consistent membranes within minutes. The membrane can be tailored to the exact specification thanks to our casting knife with adjustable thicknesses.
The MEMCAST™ comes with a standard knife with 1 compartment and 4 thicknesses (M1G4) for casting films of 100 µm, 150 µm, 250 µm and 500 µm wet thickness. Custom made knives can be made on request. Also included with the MEMCAST is the tempered glass casting plate.
Easy mechanism to attach/detach the coating support, allowing fast immersion in a coagulation bath.
The coating length can be determined by either setting a stop point prior to the casting, or pushing the optional stop button during the application.
One arm casting design implemented for operator safety and ease of use to take out casting late
Casting is done on a tempered glass casting plate, ensuring plain and durable operation
Digital display for easy control and read out of the parameters
Upgrade your membrane synthesis process with MEMCAST™, and experience the benefits of automated, user-friendly, and highly efficient membrane coating.
MEMCAST™ casting size ca. 350 x 560 mm
Casting speed 0.1 up to 10 cm/s
Heating of the coating surface up to 60 °C
Digital display (touch screen) to set temperature and read the actual temperature, as well as to set and read the coating (casting) speed.
