Apparatus and methods for fulfillment of patient prescription orders by adapting a standard or stock container pre-filled with medication or the like for use as a patient-specific container through precise application of patient-specific information to the pre-filled container. Precise placement of the patient-specific information to the pre-filled container enables pharmacy management to fully utilize valuable information provided with the pre-filled container, thereby improving the quality of service to the patient while making the process of prescription order fulfillment more efficient. In general, preferred embodiments comprise control apparatus and information-application apparatus. In embodiments, the information-application apparatus is adapted to place a patient-specific label on the container. Preferred forms of the information-application apparatus include a label printer and a positioner. The preferred printer applies patient-specific information on a label. The preferred positioner orients the pre-filled container to receive the label from the printer such that information provided with the container is available for use.

An apparatus for fabricating one or more electrowetting display devices, wherein the apparatus comprises a fluid dispenser to dispense fluids onto a substrate. The fluid dispenser comprises a first nozzle to dispense a first fluid of the fluids onto the substrate. The fluid dispenser further comprises two or more additional nozzles. Each additional nozzle dispenses a fluid in communication with the first fluid. The fluids dispensed by the additional nozzles combine to form a single second fluid that is substantially immiscible with the first fluid.

An electronic component and method for manufacture thereof is disclosed. A plurality of electrodes are positioned in stacked relation to form an electrode stack. The stack may include as few as two electrodes, but more may be used depending on the number of subcomponents desired. Spacing between adjacent electrodes is determined by removable spacers during fabrication. The resulting space between adjacent electrodes is substantially filled with gaseous matter, which may be an actual gaseous fill, air, or a reduced pressure gas formed through evacuation of the space. Further, adjacent electrodes are bonded together to maintain the spacing. A casing is formed to encapsulate the stack, with first and second conducting surfaces remaining exposed outside the casing. The first conducting surface is electrically coupled to a first of the electrodes, and the second conducting surface is electrically coupled to a second of the electrodes.

This sheet-laminating device is provided with first and second clamping devices, a first conveyance handler capable of holding a sheet with at least a portion of a periphery thereof protruding, and a control unit. The control unit causes: the first clamping device to move to a first upper position while the sheet laminate is being pressed with the second clamping device; the first conveyance handler, which is holding a first sheet, to move to a standby position above the stage from the direction opposite to the first clamping device with the stage therebetween; the first conveyance handler to be descended toward the stage to laminate the first sheet on the sheet laminate, which is being pressed by the second clamping device; and the first clamping device to be descended toward the stage to press the periphery of the first sheet, which is protruding from the first conveyance handler, toward the stage.

A particle removal device including a particle removal sticker. The particle removal sticker including a top side and a bottom side. The bottom side of the particle removal sticker includes an adhesive configured to removably adhere to a screen of an electronic device. The particle removal device also includes a sticker release liner. The sticker release liner includes a top side removably attached to the bottom side of the particle removal sticker. The sticker release liner is configured to be removed from the bottom side of the particle removal sticker to expose the adhesive and to adhere the particle removal sticker to the screen. The particle removal sticker is configured to remove particles as the particle removal sticker is removed from the screen. Other embodiments are provided.
