A substrate processing apparatus includes a processing tub, a liquid recovery unit, a liquid recovery unit drain line, a storage, a first and a second liquid supply lines, a discharge line, a first and a second liquid flow rate controllers. The liquid recovery unit receives a processing liquid overflown from the processing tub. The liquid recovery unit drain line drains the processing liquid from the liquid recovery unit. The first and the second liquid supply lines supply a first and a second liquids, respectively. The cleaning liquid contains the first liquid and the second liquid, and removes a precipitate from the processing liquid. The discharge line discharges the cleaning liquid, the first liquid or the second liquid toward the liquid recovery unit. The first and the second liquid flow rate controllers are provided at the first and the second liquid supply lines, and adjust flow rates thereof, respectively.
RECIPROCATING GLUE DISPENSER DISPENSING SWITCH
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.
APPLICATION DEVICE FOR PREFERABLY PARTIALLY BOOSTED APPLICATION
The disclosure relates to an application device, preferably for alternately applying a 2C material, comprising a first component material and a second component material, on the one hand and the first component material on the other hand, in particular onto a motor vehicle component, comprising preferably an application head and a first line section leading to an application nozzle, wherein the first line section comprises a mixer and a first line for a first component material and a second line for a second component material, wherein the first line and the second line are connected to the mixer and the mixer mixes the first component material and the second component material with each other for forming a 2C material. The application device is characterized in particular in that it comprises a second line section for the first component material to form an application bead of alternately the 2C material from the first line section and the first component material from the second line section.
METERING SYSTEM
A metering system for applying a bead of a multi-component composite material to a component. The metering system comprises a mixing head including a mixing chamber. The metering system includes one supply line for each component of a multi-component composite material, leading from a source of each component to the mixing chamber. The mixing chamber is configured to mix the components of the multi-component composite material in the mixing chamber and has an outlet opening through which the mixed multi-component composite material exits the mixing head. The metering system includes a metering pump to convey a discharge of the multi-component composite material through the outlet opening. The metering system includes a control unit to output, to the metering pump, a control signal comprising control information andvadjust a metering output of the multi-component composite material through the outlet opening of the mixing head based on the control signal.
Robot end effector for dispensing an extrudable substance
A robot end effector for dispensing an extrudable substance comprises a chassis and cartridge bays, attached to the chassis and each shaped to receive a corresponding one of two-part cartridges. Robot end effector also comprises a dispensing valve, attached to the chassis and comprising a valve inlet and a valve outlet. The valve outlet is in selective fluidic communication with the valve inlet. Robot end effector further comprises a manifold, comprising a manifold outlet and manifold inlets, which are in fluidic communication with the manifold outlet. Robot end effector additionally comprises a plunger assembly, comprising pairs of plungers and arranged to concurrently extrude contents of the two-part cartridges through the cartridge outlets. Robot end effector also comprises an electric motor, attached to the chassis and configured to selectively move the plunger assembly relative to the chassis.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FIELD INTERNALLY COATING A PIPE JOINT
A system for field internally coating a pipe joint comprising a polymer application unit, which has a first cart configured to selectively advance inside a pipe; a first and a second tank configured to contain a first and a second polymer component respectively; a mixer to mix the first and the second component; a first and a second pump to feed the first and the second component respectively from the first and the second tank to the mixer; an applicator to apply the polymer to the pipe; and a conduit comprising a free end configured to be placed near the applicator to feed the polymer from the mixer to the applicator.
Adhesive applicator control system
An apparatus for coating carpet webs in a coating apparatus with varying adhesives includes a controller, one or more sensors for detecting a volume of a puddle of the adhesive pooled in front of an application roller, and an electronic valve in fluid communication with each of a plurality of mixers. The electronic valve directs flow of the adhesive from any of the mixers to the coating apparatus. To switch from one of the adhesives to new adhesive as a next carpet web passes through the coating apparatus, the controller calculates a remaining length of the carpet web that can be coated with the adhesive in the puddle of adhesive based on the volume of the puddle, so that the puddle of the adhesive coats the carpet web, and then proximate a seam to the next carpet web, the new adhesive begins to coat the next carpet web.
SUBSTRATE TREATMENT APPARATUS AND SUBSTRATE TREATMENT METHOD
In one embodiment, a substrate treatment apparatus includes a mixer configured to mix a first liquid including a metal element and a second liquid being basicity to generate a third liquid including the metal element and being basicity. The apparatus further includes a supplier configured to supply the third liquid to a substrate. The apparatus further includes a first flow path configured to convey the third liquid from the mixer to the supplier not through a filter that removes particles from the third liquid.
ROBOT END EFFECTOR FOR DISPENSING AN EXTRUDABLE SUBSTANCE
