Due to the dynamic mechanical loads to which motor vehicle traction batteries are subjected, housings of battery cells of the traction batteries are covered at least in part by an electrically insulating layer made from a coating material. For this purpose, a method and a coating station for carrying out the method are proposed. The method is performed with a liquid electrically insulating coating material, by applying separately produced individual drops of the coating material using a coating applicator. The drops form coating points on an outer surface of the housing, which coating points are applied sequentially with the coating applicator, adjacently to one another or overlapping, so that together they form coating lines.

Coatings, coating systems and coating methods for skis and snowboards are provided. The coatings may be lubricious coatings including one or more hydrophobic compounds, adhesion agents, shape memory polymers, free-radical initiators, and/or carrying solvents.

The present disclosure relates to a hot glue unit for a labeling machine in the beverage processing industry. The hot glue unit includes a housing, a glue roller disposed in an interior of the housing, a glue container, and a filter unit including an extractor connected to the housing. The extractor is to extract gases from the interior of the housing and supply the gases to the filter unit before the gases are to exit the hot glue unit.

A dehumidification forward passage is provided for guiding air withdrawn from a treating chamber as dehumidification-subject air A″ to an adsorption area of an adsorption/desorption type dehumidifying device. A dehumidification return passage is provided for guiding air A″ past through the adsorption area to the treating chamber. A desorption heat pump is provided for heating desorbing air HA to be flown through a desorption area of adsorption/desorption type dehumidifying device, with utilizing, as a heat sink, dehumidified air A″ which has flown through the adsorption area and sent to the dehumidification return passage. There is provided a sensible-heat heat exchanger configured to cool the dehumidification-subject air A″ present in the dehumidification forward passage through a heat exchange reaction with dehumidified air A″ present in the dehumidification return passage which has been cooled via absorption of its heat by the desorption heat pump.

The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for preventing oxidation or contamination during a circuit printing operation. The circuit printing operation can be directed to OLED-type printing. In an exemplary embodiment, the printing process is conducted at a load-locked printer housing having one or more of chambers. Each chamber is partitioned from the other chambers by physical gates or fluidic curtains. A controller coordinates transportation of a substrate through the system and purges the system by timely opening appropriate gates. The controller may also control the printing operation by energizing the print-head at a time when the substrate is positioned substantially thereunder.
