According to an embodiment, a winding apparatus includes a winding core and an air flow controller. The winding core winds a belt-shaped structure comprising a substrate and an edge-coating part that covers an edge of a substrate in a width direction, the edge-coating part being coated with a material liquid on a surface of the substrate. The air flow controller has a nozzle that performs at least either ejection or suction of a gas, and adjusts an air flow in the vicinity of the edge-coating part of the film of the belt-shaped structure, which is wound by a winding core.

Systems and methods for venting a solvent are disclosed. The system includes a chamber, such as an oven having an interior volume defining a heating zone, where the interior volume receives at least one substrate coated with a coating material comprising a solvent. The system further includes a vent coupled to the oven and defining a passage between the interior volume and the environment external to the oven. The system also includes a solvent sensor measuring an amount of evaporated solvent present in the interior volume, and a fan removing at least a portion of the solvent from the interior volume. The system may also include a coating assembly including an applicator and a flow meter, wherein the applicator applies a portion of the coating material to the substrate, and the flow meter determines the amount of coating material applied to the substrate.

The present invention relates to an automatic cushion-attaching device for attaching cut cushions or cutting and attaching cushions to a cutting plate so that the cushions are attached along both sides of the position at which a blade portion is mounted to the cutting plate. At least two of the attached cushions are automatically attached to the cutting plate next to the blade portion according to the shape of the blade portion. Since the operation of attaching the cushions to the cutting plate is automatically performed in a single machine, the present invention has the effect of achieving very high attachment speed and good productivity.
