The invention provides a method of packaging a sterilized product. The method includes the steps of providing a product and sterilizing the product. The sterilized product is enclosed in a first layer, which is substantially hermetically sealed to form a first sealed enclosure. The first sealed enclosure is enclosed in a second layer, which is substantially hermetically sealed to form a second sealed enclosure. The second sealed enclosure is enclosed in a third layer, which is substantially hermetically sealed to form a third sealed enclosure. The third sealed enclosure is enclosed in a fourth layer, which is substantially hermetically sealed to form a packaged product.

According to the present disclosure, methods and techniques for generating preferred concrete block products are provided. The methods and techniques involve providing addition of color to selected section within the blocks (1), as described herein, to generate enhancement effects. Typical applications involve spray applications for color pigment to visually distinct sections of the block (1) on one or more decorative surfaces.

A liquid proportioning machine includes at least two liquid storage mechanisms for storing liquid, pump bodies for pumping liquid from the liquid storage mechanisms, and liquid discharge locations connected with liquid outlets of the pump bodies and ejecting liquid; and the liquid storage mechanisms are respectively connected with the corresponding pump bodies, and a regulating mechanism for keeping a proportion for the liquid discharge speeds of the pump bodies is arranged between the pump bodies. The pump body includes a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft rotates to cause the pump body to pump and discharge the liquid; and the regulating mechanism includes a driving shaft driven by a driving mechanism to rotate, and the driving shaft drives the rotating shafts of the liquid storage mechanisms to rotate through a transmission mechanism and maintains a proportion for the rotating speeds between the rotating shafts. The driving shaft drives any rotating shaft to rotate through a first transmission mechanism, and a second transmission mechanism is arranged between other rotating shafts and the rotating shaft directly driven by the driving shaft. In the present invention, an automatic proportioning manner is adopted, so the proportion of various kinds of liquid does not need to be manually regulated, which improves the working efficiency and the proportioning accuracy, and then the quality of the product is improved. The entire device has a low cost and great market competitiveness.

Systems and methods for semiconductor fabrication are described. A spin coater comprises a spin chuck, a nozzle, a nozzle housing, a purge gas supply, and an organic solvent supply. The nozzle housing includes a lower housing including a solvent storage groove in which the organic solvent is stored, and an upper housing on the lower housing. The upper housing includes a nozzle insert hole on the solvent storage groove and receives the nozzle, and a gas supply hole connected to one side of the nozzle insert hole.

The disclosure relates to a paint supply system for a coating installation (e.g. painting installation) comprising a ring line for circulation of a coating agent, a ring line tapping point in the ring line for extraction of the coating agent from the ring line, a consumer and a tap line leading from the ring line tapping point to the consumer. The disclosure provides a device for alternately moving the coating agent forward and backward in the tap line to avoid settling of the coating agent in the tap line.

A dross abatement system for a printer is disclosed. The dross abatement system includes a print head ejector, a pump in communication with the print head ejector having an inner cavity, a first inlet coupled to the inner cavity, a supply of printing material external to the print head ejector, a heating element configured to heat the printing material in the ejector, and a supply of absorbent material external to the print head ejector. A method of abating dross in a metal jetting printer is also disclosed, which includes pausing an operation of the printer, advancing an absorbent material into a melt pool within a nozzle pump reservoir, wherein the melt pool may include a metal printing material, absorbing dross from the metal printing material, removing the absorbent material including the dross, and resuming operation of the metal jetting printer.

Described herein is a texture material dispensing system. The system includes a container assembly, an actuator assembly, and an outlet assembly. The container assembly includes a container and a valve assembly. The actuator assembly includes a trigger actuator pivotably attached to an actuator housing. The outlet assembly includes a flexible tube fluidically connected to the trigger actuator and an adjustable outlet opening. The adjustable outlet opening is adjustable between a position that is aligned substantially parallel to a container assembly axis and a position that is aligned substantially non-parallel to a container assembly axis. Also described herein is a method of using the texture material dispensing system for dispensing a texture material onto a target surface.

A liquid discharge apparatus includes: a discharge head including a discharge portion configured to discharge a liquid; a cap configured to cap the discharge portion; a suction unit configured to suck an interior of the cap through a first fluid passage communicating with the interior of the cap in a state in which the cap caps the discharge portion; an open/close unit configured to open/close a second fluid passage communicating with the interior of the cap, the open/close unit being set in an open state when a negative pressure state of the interior of the cap, which is generated by suction by the suction unit, is canceled; and a filter arranged in the second fluid passage.
