An adhesive and release liner application system and method. A bottom table is slidable with respect to a frame and a middle table is slidable with respect to the bottom table. An elevator drive subsystem between a top table and the middle table is configured to adjust the elevation of the top table relative to the middle table. An adhesive head, connected to an adhesive supply subsystem, a release liner applicator, a release liner cutter, and a staple gun are mounted to the top table for applying the adhesive to a surface of a structural member positioned adjacent the top table, for applying a release liner over the adhesive on the surface, for inserting at least one staple through the release liner and into the surface, and for cutting the release liner.

The invention relates to a method for operating a machine, in particular a coating machine, preferably a narrow-edge coating machine, such as those used e.g. in the furniture or component industry. The method comprises the following steps: transferring a plurality of input values from a storage device to a control device of the machine, the input values relating to at least one material and/or tool used in a processing of a workpiece, preparing the machine for processing based on the input values, processing a workpiece with the prepared machine, changing the input values based on the processing and/or the product, and transferring the changed input values to the storage device.

A reciprocating glue dispenser dispensing switch includes a switching device main body, a needle holding base, a sliding wear-resistant plate, and a driving device. The switching device main body is equipped with a double liquid inlet, the needle holding base is equipped with a mixed glue outlet, the sliding wear-resistant plate is installed between the switching device main body and the needle holding base, and the sliding wear-resistant plate is equipped with a sliding wear-resistant plate opening. The driving device is utilized to move the sliding wear-resistant plate. A mixed double-liquid glue passes through the double liquid inlet, the sliding wear-resistant plate opening and the glue outlet to dispense a mixed double-liquid glue while the double liquid inlet, the sliding wear-resistant plate opening and the glue outlet are overlapped. In addition, a double liquid dispensing equipment is also disclosed herein.

Systems apply a material (e.g., adhesive) to an article (e.g., a component in an article of footwear) with a multiple-nozzle tool. A first nozzle of the multiple-nozzle tool is effective to provide an edge application of the material that is consistent in application of the material. A second nozzle of the multiple-nozzle tool is effective to provide a greater material coverage application than the first nozzle. The second nozzle may be implemented to apply the material at an interior area from the edge at which the first nozzle applies the material, in an exemplary aspect.

An application unit for applying a viscous material to a component edge, in particular of varying width, of a component, wherein the application unit has a nozzle for applying the viscous material to the component edge, having a discharge opening of adjustable width, and wherein the application unit has a first feeler having a contact surface for contact against the component and a second feeler having a contact surface for contact against the component, wherein the first feeler and the second feeler are pretensionable with a pretensioning arrangement in opposite directions, and wherein the width of the discharge opening is adaptable in dependence on the distance of the contact surface of the first feeler from the contact surface of the second feeler.

A coating apparatus includes a dispenser that includes a discharge port and a displacement sensor, the discharge port being configured to be capable of discharging liquid from a vertical direction the displacement sensor being configured to detect a distance in the vertical direction between the discharge port and the coating region, a drive device that drives the dispenser, a dispenser movement control unit that controls the drive device to move the dispenser along a predetermined coating path, a tilt detection unit that detects a tilt of the coating surface with respect to a reference plane based on the distance detected by the displacement sensor, and a coating path correction unit that corrects the coating path based on the tilt of the coating surface detected by the tilt detection unit.

The disclosure relates to a coating device for edge-coating a panel with a coating medium, the device comprising at least one medium line, for guiding a coating medium, which comprises an inlet and an outlet, wherein the medium line comprises a recess for introducing a panel into a coating-medium stream, and wherein the medium line and the recess are designed such that the coating medium can be applied to the edge of the panel by means of suction in the flow direction of the medium. The present disclosure also relates to a coating system for edge-coating a panel with a coating medium.

The invention relates to a coating apparatus that is in particular configured to coat narrow surfaces of a plate-shaped workpiece, and to a method. The coating apparatus comprises a first application device for applying a first coating material to a first narrow surface of the workpiece as well as a second application device for applying a second coating material to a second narrow surface of the workpiece. The coating apparatus furthermore comprises a first printing device for printing the first coating material.

A substrate processing apparatus for forming a coating film on a peripheral edge portion including a peripheral edge of a front surface and a side surface of a substrate, includes: a substrate holder for rotatably holding the substrate; a first chemical liquid supplier for supplying a first chemical liquid onto the peripheral edge including a rear surface of the substrate; a partial removing part for removing the first chemical liquid adhering to at least a portion of the front and side surfaces; a second chemical liquid supplier for supplying a second chemical liquid for forming the coating film onto the front and side surfaces; a first chemical liquid removing part for removing the first chemical liquid remaining on the substrate to which the second chemical liquid adheres; and a controller for controlling the parts described above.
