The present disclosure provides a self-traction wire coating robot and a wire routing and wire hanging method, wherein the robot includes a mounting plate, a material pushing module, a winding traction module, a coating module, a walking module and a power supply and control module, wherein the coating module and the walking module are rotatable in the extension direction of the non-overhead bare wires, when hanging wires, the coating module and the walking module are first rotated and swung to the side of the robot, an unmanned device is then used to hang a traction belt on the overhead bare wires, the winding traction module tightens the traction belt to hang the robot under the overhead bare wires, and then the coating module and the walking module are controlled to rotate and recover to the top of the robot and hang the robot on the overhead bare wire.

The present invention relates to a wire coating composition comprising an infrared radiation sensitive compound resulting in the conversion of absorbed light energy into heat and a matrix with a varnish that responses either chemically or physically upon treatment with heat, to a method of producing an enameled wire and to the use thereof.

A stretchable composite sheet, wherein pleat-free regions where no pleats are formed are formed between a plurality of pleat formation regions, the sheet being made by a method, wherein non-continuous coating sections are set so as to correspond to form the plurality of pleat formation regions, and non-coating sections are set so as to correspond to form the pleat-free regions, and an intermittent coating is performed on stretchable elastic members (rubber threads). An apparatus for non-continuously and intermittently applying a hot-melt adhesive comprises an intermittent coating unit, which includes a hot-melt supply control device having a valve mechanism and a coating head having slit grooves in which coating areas are formed, and a non-continuous coating unit, which vertically vibrates rubber threads, passing through the coating areas, between a coating position and a non-coating position.

The present invention relates to a novel process for the production of coated filaments for subsequent application as print in extrusion-based 3D printers, e.g. FDM printers (fused deposition modelling printers). The filaments are coated in a separate process outside of the printer, and can also be used in a conventional extrusion printer. The present invention further relates to the coating device for application of the coating to the filament and to a roll containing the coated filaments.

A tow prepreg manufacturing apparatus applies resin to an original tow of reinforcing fibers. The tow prepreg manufacturing apparatus includes an oiling roller, a scraper, a resin reservoir, a tube pump, and a controller. The oiling roller is supplied with resin while rotating at a predetermined rotation speed. The scraper adjusts the shape of the resin supplied onto the oiling roller. The resin reservoir supplies resin to the oiling roller. The tube pump discharges resin to the resin reservoir. The controller controls the tube pump so that the amount of resin held in the resin reservoir remains constant and controls the rotation speed of the oiling roller so that a resin content of a wound tow prepreg becomes equal to a target resin content.

The disclosure provides example methods and a system that includes: (a) a fluidization bed having a reservoir and comprising a base and a plurality of side walls, (b) an epoxy-based powder disposed within the reservoir, where the fluidization bed is configured to fluidize the epoxy-based powder, (c) a first heating element configured to heat the wire matrix reinforcement to at least a melting temperature, (d) a conveyor positioned over the fluidization bed and configured to engage the wire matrix reinforcement, where the conveyor is configured to submerge the wire matrix reinforcement into the fluidized epoxy-based powder such that a portion of the epoxy-based powder melts and coats the wire matrix reinforcement, and where the conveyor is configured to remove the wire matrix reinforcement from the epoxy-based powder; and (e) a second heating element configured to cure the epoxy-based powder coating the wire matrix reinforcement into a corrosion resistant barrier.

An intumescent mesh has a flexible grid with a plurality of strands that form a series of openings in the flexible grid, and an intumescent coating applied to the flexible grid. The intumescent coating is made of an expandable graphite and a polymer-based carrier as ingredients and having an activation temperature above which the intumescent coating swells. The grid is sized such that the intumescent coating permits airflow through the flexible grid until the intumescent coating is exposed to temperatures at or above the activation temperature, whereupon the intumescent coating swells to seal the openings and prevent air flow through the flexible grid.

Provided are apparatuses for the infusion of one or more additives into the surface of a linear substrate. The apparatuses include a processing barrel having an infusion chamber defined therein as well as a linear substrate inlet and a linear substrate outlet. The processing barrel also includes an infusion fluid inlet and an infusion solution outlet in fluid communication with the infusion chamber. The infusion chamber is dimensionally reconfigurable, optionally during an infusion process.

The present invention relates to a surface modified overhead conductor with a coating that allows the conductor to operate at lower temperatures. The coating contains about 5% to about 30% of an inorganic adhesive, about 45% to about 92% of a filler, about 2% to about 20% of one or more emissivity agents, and about 1% to about 5% of a stabilizer.
