The disclosure relates to a method for coating a substrate with a lacquer. First, the lacquer is uniformly applied to the substrate. Then, the solvent proportion of the lacquer applied to the substrate is reduced, and the coated substrate is exposed to a solvent atmosphere. In some embodiments, the lacquer is heated. The invention also relates to a device for planarising a lacquer layer.

Provided are a container-interior drying device and a container-interior drying method capable of shortening drying time and improving the efficiency in an entire filling line without causing container deformation, the device having a simple configuration and requiring little space for installation. The device includes a gas ejector nozzle (110) capable of being inserted into an interior of a container through an opening of the container, a suction mechanism (120) capable of facing the opening of the container, and a gas supply unit (130) configured to supply the gas ejector nozzle (110) with gas, wherein gas is ejected into the interior of the container from the gas ejector nozzle (110), and the suction mechanism (120) positioned so as to face the opening of the container sucks out gas through the opening of the container.

A method of applying a marking onto a metrological scale. The method includes locating one or more markings on the scale substrate in a provisional state; checking whether the one or more markings located on the scale substrate are acceptable; and finalizing the one or markings which are acceptable so as to transform the one or more markings into a finalized state.

A method and apparatus for forming and shaping a fillet at an interface. A fluid may be dispensed from a nozzle onto the interface as the nozzle is moved along the interface to form the fillet. An exposed surface of the fillet may be worked using a fairing element associated with the nozzle, as the nozzle is moved along the interface and the fluid is dispensed from the nozzle.
