A development device includes a casing, an airflow former and a substrate holding device. The airflow former forms a downward flow of clean air in the inner space of the casing. The development device further includes a plurality of nozzles and a partition mechanism. The plurality of nozzles supply a processing liquid to a substrate held by the substrate holding device. The partition mechanism partitions the inner space of the casing into a processing space and a non-processing space with a substrate held by the substrate holding device. The processing space is a space including a substrate held by the substrate holding device. The partition mechanism includes a cup that receives a processing liquid that splashes from a substrate, a partition plate that has a nozzle opening and a plurality of through holes and is provided above the cup and a cover member that covers the nozzle opening.

A robot end effector for dispensing an extrudable substance comprises a chassis, cartridge bays, attached to the chassis and each shaped to receive a corresponding one of two-part cartridges, and a manifold, comprising a manifold outlet, manifold inlets, and a valve inlet. When the two-part cartridges are received by the cartridge bays, the manifold inlets are in fluidic communication with corresponding ones of the two-part cartridges via static mixers, attached to cartridge outlets of the two-part cartridges. The robot end effector additionally comprises a head assembly, comprising pairs of fittings, configured to selectively supply compressed air from a pressure source to the two-part cartridges when the two-part cartridges are received by the cartridge bays, so that contents of the two-part cartridges are concurrently extruded through the cartridge outlets.

The present disclosure provides a method and system by which a precise amount of a viscous fluid sealing compound can be dispensed at required locations through computer vision-based observation of the fluid deposited, its rate and amount of deposition and location; and that the dispensed fluid may be accurately shaped through robotic or other special purpose mechanism motion. The invention enables instant quality inspection of the dispensing process in terms of the locations, amounts and shapes of newly created seals.

Apparatus for blending and applying plural substances including aggregate onto an environmental substrate is shown and described. The apparatus includes optionally a single power plant, plural pumps each fed by a respective hopper, and a blender blending pumped materials together. Dispensing ratios of the two pumps are mutually adjustable. An onboard air compressor delivers compressed air for atomizing blended materials as they are dispensed with the aggregate. Because materials may be curable or hardenable, flushing is enabled. The apparatus may be a free standing wheeled device.

Disclosed is a drying-wetting separated filling method and a filling apparatus for an electrowetting display device. The filling method comprises filling a non-polar solution into pixel grids on a lower substrate of an electrowetting display device in air, and filling a polar solution to immediately cover the non-polar solution filled after filling the non-polar solution into the pixel grids. Compared with filling the non-polar solution into the polar solution, directly filling the non-polar solution in air has better filling uniformity, easier operation and control. With the method, the fillings of the polar solution and the non-polar solution are easy, having a higher filling efficiency, and no air bubble residue.

A device (1) and method for the production of plastic parts (2), having a first plastic feed device (3a) for feeding a first liquid plastic starting component (K1); a second plastic feed device (3b) for feeding a second liquid plastic starting component (K2); a mixing device (5) with a mixing chamber (6), wherein in the mixing chamber the liquid plastic starting components that can be fed by the plastic feed devices can be mixed to form a plastic mixture (KG); a discharge nozzle (7) for discharging the plastic mixture; and a cooling device (8) for the mixing device, wherein a drying device (9) surrounding the mixing device at least in regions is provided, wherein the drying device has a separating device (10), a drying chamber (T) formed between the separating device and the mixing device, and a desiccant feeding device (11) opening into the drying chamber are disclosed.

The disclosure relates to an application device for applying an application agent (e.g. heat-conducting paste) into a cavity, in particular in a battery module of an electric battery.
