A method for operating a double-action piston pump of an application system for applying a fluid medium to a substrate, wherein the piston pump has a piston which is movable between a first reversal point and a second reversal point for delivering the fluid medium, wherein on reaching the first reversal point and the second reversal point, the movement direction of the piston is reversed, wherein during an output period, the fluid medium is output by means of an output device, and during an interruption period, an output of the fluid medium by means of the output device is interrupted, wherein during the interruption period, the movement direction of the piston is reversed, wherein on reversal of the movement direction during the interruption period, the piston is situated at an intermediate position between the first reversal point and the second reversal point.

An ejection-material ejection apparatus and an imprinting apparatus are provided which are capable of quickly detecting damage of a flexible membrane and avoiding contact between an ejection material and an operating liquid even if part of the flexible membrane is damaged. The flexible membrane includes a first film (1) covering a first storing space (5) for the ejection material, a second film (2) covering a second storing space (6) for the operating liquid, and an inter-film space 4 situated between the first film (1) and the second film (2). A change in state of the inter-film space (4) resulting from communication between at least one of the first storing space (5) and the second storing space (6) and the inter-film space (4) is detected with a liquid sensor (41), a flow speed sensor (77), and a liquid leakage sensor (42).

Disclosed is a slot die coater adjusting device, which adjusts a slot die coater including a lower die having a lower discharge hole for discharging a first active material slurry and an upper die having an upper discharge hole for discharging a second active material slurry, to adjust a distance between the lower discharge hole and the upper discharge hole by allowing the upper die to move. The slot die coater adjusting device includes pressing block assemblies respectively provided to both longitudinal sides of the slot die coater and fixed to the upper die; a linear motion (LM) guide disposed at a lower portion of the pressing block assembly and connected to the pressing block assembly to guide a movement of the pressing block assembly; a servo motor configured to give a power for moving the LM guide; and a reducer connected between the servo motor and the LM guide.

An improvement to surface marking devices for pumping and circulating melted thermoplastic material to various surfaces including roads, parking lots and the like is provided. The pump for melted thermoplastic is comprised of a cold section and a hot section. The hot section is connected to a fluid or electric motor, or alternatively, an internal combustion engine for providing rotation to the pump. The connection to provide rotation to the hot section is through the cold section, which is spaced away from the hot section and connected with shafting to provide rotation to the hot section. A heating jacket is secured to the hot section for transferring heat from an external source to the hot section. The spacing between the hot and cold sections provides the ability to rebuild the hot section of the pump without removal from the cold section and without removal from the vehicle to which it is attached.

The method for dispensing of a liquid, viscous, pasty, powdery, or gaseous product by means of a dispensing device (100) adapted to being held and manipulated by a single hand of the user U comprises: Taking a dispensing device (100); Selecting a connection tip from a tip assortment A through G, each of them having a previously defined function; Securing the tip chosen from the tip assortment A through G inside the dispensing device (100); Selecting a mode among the different modes of the control program; Positioning the dispensing device (100) in the work zone; Activating a control button (400); Releasing the control button (400); Removing the selected tip from the dispensing device (100);

A method removes a follower plate of a device for transporting viscous material out of a barrel-like container. The device has the follower plate for closing the container, which is open at the top and has a container base and a container casing extending upwards from the base, the follower plate being movable toward and away from the base. A force measuring sensor measures a force exerted by a container onto a placement surface; the controller switches the ventilation mode to the lifting mode if the force exerted by the container onto the placement surface exceeds a first target force value; and the controller switches the lifting mode to the ventilation mode if the force exerted by the container onto the placement surface falls below a second target force value, and/or the at least one sensor measures the position of the container relative to a stationary point.

Device for cooling flat rolled material with a liquid coolant has at least one cooling bar, which is arranged above the conveying path and to which the liquid coolant is fed. A plurality of outlet tubes have, in a flow direction of the liquid coolant, an initial portion, which proceeds from the inlet opening and extends upward, a middle portion, which adjoins the initial portion, and an end portion, which adjoins the middle portion and extends downward and to the output opening. The middle portion contains a vertex at which the coolant flowing through the outlet tube in question reaches a highest point. The outlet openings are located above the cooling bar. A height distance (h1) of the inlet opening from the vertex is at least twice as large, in particular at least three times as large, as a height distance (h2) of the outlet opening from the vertex.
