An apparatus for painting articles comprises a painting booth delimited by side walls and having at least one inlet opening and an outlet opening reciprocally aligned on two of said respectively opposite side walls. A transport assembly moves a plurality of articles being processed respectively aligned along a movement path extending through the painting booth, to lead the articles being processed therein through the inlet opening and to extract said articles through the outlet opening. The delivery nozzles operatively arranged inside the painting booth deliver atomised paint against the articles transported along the movement path. Adjustment devices comprising adjustment knobs positioned externally of the painting booth and manually accessible by an operator operate on each delivery nozzle to modify its positioning with respect to the articles being processed.

Apparatus for painting mainly flat products including a spray booth, in its turn including a plenum, a conveying belt for conveying products at least a device for applying paint, and at least one suction plant, wherein the plenum of the spray booth has a symmetric M-shape including, from the respective peripheries to the centre of the plenum: two first descending surface portions tilted towards the periphery; two second lateral surface portions parallel to the belt; two third descending surface portions, with a tilt towards the centre, opposite the tilt of the first portions; a fourth central surface portion parallel to said belt, the fourth central surface portion being closer to the conveying belt than the lateral parallel sections.

An exhaust/drainage mechanism includes an exhaust channel guiding contaminated air discharged from a coating booth with non-attached paint; a drainage channel guiding contaminated water discharged from the booth; a scum receiving inlet included in the drainage channel and into which the floating coating scum floating on the contaminated water flows; and a dual-purpose flow channel used as both the exhaust and drainage channel. The contaminated air flows through an upper part of the dual-purpose flow channel, and the contaminated water flows through a lower part. A wind pressure of the contaminated air generates, in an upper part of the contaminated water, an upper-layer flow flows in a direction or at a velocity different from a direction or a velocity of a flow in a lower part of the contaminated water. A dynamic pressure of the upper-layer flow pushes and moves the floating coating scum to the scum receiving inlet.

A multi-angle wash system for cleaning carcass, wherein the wash system comprises a multi-angle fluid distribution unit; a rotating unit; a spray unit fluidly and operably coupled to the multi-angle fluid distribution unit; and a guiding unit operably coupled to the spray unit or the multi-angle fluid distribution unit. The multi-angle fluid distribution unit comprises a connecting element that is configured to operably couple with the spray unit such that the spray unit oscillates in correspondence to the rotation of the rotating unit. The spray unit comprises a guiding element and nozzle sprays. The guiding unit comprises a co-guiding element that has a reciprocate structure to the guiding element of the spray unit such that the guiding unit facilitates the oscillation of the spray unit in correspondence to the rotation of the rotating unit.

Provided is an apparatus for dispensing droplets, the apparatus including: a stage on which a substrate is disposed and spraying holes are disposed; a substrate moving unit for moving the substrate disposed on the stage in a first direction; a droplet dispensing unit disposed in a vertical direction above the substrate; and a droplet dispensing unit moving unit moving the droplet dispensing unit in a second direction, perpendicular to the first direction on a horizontal plane, the apparatus, further including: a distance measuring unit measuring a distance from a substrate in the vertical direction; and a control unit, wherein the control unit measures a distance between the distance measuring unit and the substrate through the distance measuring unit while moving the substrate through the substrate moving unit.

An application device for applying at least one fluid product on a substrate, including an application member having an outlet orifice for the fluid product(s) outside the application device and, for at least one fluid product, an adjusting member able to adjust a dosing flow of the fluid product through the outlet orifice as a function of a command input of the adjusting member provided by a command module, the application device also including a speed measuring device able to determine a measured speed of the outlet orifice relative to an inertial reference, the command module being configured to determine the command input as a function of the measured speed.

The present invention relates to a coating line and a method for applying a protective coating to hollow glass containers integrated in glass container manufacturing process. In particular it relates to a coating line and method for applying a cold end coating to hollow glass containers. More particularly the present invention relates to a coating line comprising horizontal spray guns for applying a cold end coating to hollow glass containers in a single line and such a method for applying a cold end coating to hollow glass containers.

A method and system for powder coating non electrically conductive elements, preferably brake pads. A pre-treatment station is upstream of an electrostatic powder coating deposition station and a baking station for melting and polymerizing the powder coating in order to form a coating layer on a surface to be coated. The pre-treatment station causes the elements to be coated to conduct electrically by uniformly wetting said elements by means of creating poorly mineralized water covalent bonds on at least one surface to be coated, in an amount aimed at producing a measurable weight increase in the non electrically conductive elements, which then causes them to conduct electrically. The water adsorbed and/or deposited is subsequently eliminated within the baking station.

Embodiments of the invention are related to a coating system and a method for coating a surface of a product. The system may include a coating unit, comprising; a droplet deposition assembly configured to deposit droplets of a coating material from a plurality of nozzles according to a predetermined deposition pattern, to form a coating on the surface. The system may further include a curing unit for curing at least one polymeric component included in the coating material and a control unit configured to receive the predetermined deposition pattern and control the coating unit to deposit the predetermined deposition pattern on the surface, such that the coating has a thickness deviation of less than 1 micron per 1 meter.

The present invention concerns a device (1) for applying adhesive to cores for a log comprising moving means (3) configured to cause at least one core (5) to advance along a feed direction (A) and dispensing means (7) configured for dispensing an amount of adhesive (9) on said core (5).
