Some embodiments of the invention belongs to a technical field of NdFeB magnet processing, and mainly relates to a device and method for improving the coercivity of ring-shaped NdFeB magnet. A layer of heavy rare earth coating is sprayed on the inner and outer surfaces of the ring-shaped NdFeB magnet by the device, and then the ring-shaped NdFeB magnet sprayed with the heavy rare-earth coating is subjected to diffusion treatment to improve the coercivity of the ring-shaped NdFeB magnet. The invention uses heavy rare earth slurry as the diffusion source, combined with spraying technology, can quickly and uniformly cover a layer of heavy rare earth coating on the inner and outer surfaces of the ring-shaped NdFeB magnet, and the coercivity of the ring-shaped NdFeB magnet is improved after heat treatment.

The system includes a fixing ring applied against the end support face and a counter-ring applied against the opposite support face as well as a fixing device, an end hub fixed to the fixing ring in line with the splayed end, and including a running belt suitable for resting on two rollers of the bench, a hollow external hub including two half-hubs delimiting a running belt suitable for resting on two rollers of the bench, and fixed to the counter-ring while surrounding the splayed end.

An applicator machine and a process for heating and coating a section of pipeline. The applicator machine includes a frame configured to rotate about a section of pipeline to be heated and coated, rotating means operable to rotate the frame, and coating material applicators induction coils and radiant heaters mounted on the frame and rotatable therewith. The induction coil is configured to heat a section of pipeline adjacent to the induction coil to a coating material application temperature. The radiant heaters are configured to heat factory-applied coatings. Each coating material applicator sprays coating material through an aperture in a respective induction coil. The applicator includes an enclosure configured to surround a section of pipeline and provision for evacuating and collecting waste coating material. The coating material applicator may be configured to spray powder coating material, such as fusion bonded epoxy powder material and/or chemically modified polypropylene powder material.

A fluid application device, strand engagement device, and method of controlling the same are provided. The fluid application device includes an applicator head and a nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly includes a guide slot configured to receive a strand of material and an orifice configured to discharge a first fluid on to the strand. The strand engagement device is secured to the applicator head and includes an actuating assembly and an engagement arm connected to the actuating assembly. The engagement arm is configured to engage the strand and move between a first position and a second position in response to actuation of the actuating assembly. The method of controlling the strand engagement device includes receiving an input signal including content, determining the content of the input signal and operating the strand engagement device in response to, and based on the content of, the input signal.

An Tube Spray Gun for coating an elongated member comprising a handle, a flow trigger, at least one positioner engaging the member and adapted to maintain a spray tip in a desired position relative to the member, a mounting means for releasably engaging the spray tip assembly around the member, a coating supply fluidly connected to the spray tip and a flow activated by the trigger and a spray tip assembly calibrated to provide complete radial coverage of the member, whereby an user engages the positioner placing the apparatus around the member and activates the flow trigger while moving the apparatus along the member to coat the entire radial surface of the member with a single pass.

A system for coating a heat transfer tube for a condenser is disclosed. The system simplifies a process of coating the heat transfer tube, and is able to uniformly coat a plurality of heat transfer tubes. In addition, the system is economically feasible in that coating solution can be reused by collecting and circulating it. Due to super-hydrophobic coating, the size of a droplet condensed on the surfaces of the heat transfer tubes coated by the system can be reduced, and a condensation heat transfer coefficient can be increased.

A method of coating an exterior surface of the elongate object with the coating material includes holding the elongate object lengthwise in the elongate chamber, mixing the pressurized air and the coating material to form a mist, and coating the exterior surface while directing the mist around the exterior surface and toward the outlet of the elongate chamber.

A device for coating a fiber includes a fiber receiving arrangement and a coating arrangement which includes an application unit which wets the fiber with a coating agent, and a curing unit arranged downstream of the application unit which optically cures the coating agent. The curing unit includes a lamp which emits at least one light beam which is aimed directly or indirectly at a surface of the fiber. A main radiation direction of the lamp includes a beam angle between the main radiation direction and a longitudinal direction of the fiber of less than 40. The fiber receiving arrangement and the application unit are movable relative to each other in the longitudinal direction of the fiber via a translational motion arrangement so that a wetting process is implemented substantially along an entire length of the fiber.
