According to one embodiment, a liquid delivery member is provided which is to be arranged at a predetermined distance from a processing object, and which is configured to deliver a liquid from a slit while the liquid delivery member and the processing object are caused to make relative displacement therebetween in a first direction. The liquid delivery member includes a delivery amount adjustment part provided on a face that forms the slit, extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and configured to adjust a delivery amount of the liquid.

A device for applying a flowable substance to at least one substrate includes an applicator nozzle in the form of a slotted nozzle which has a stationary nozzle body with an inlet opening, a flow duct, and a nozzle slot, wherein the flowable substance is delivered through the applicator nozzle and passes from the inlet opening into the flow duct and from there to the nozzle slot, and is discharged through an outlet opening of the nozzle slot that is arranged in an outer region of the nozzle body, wherein the applicator nozzle further has a slide valve movable relative to the nozzle body in the longitudinal extent of the outlet opening and contacts the outer region of the nozzle body for modifying the covering of the outlet opening. The longitudinal extent of the flow duct is at least as great as the longitudinal extent of the nozzle slot.

The present disclosure pertains to a deposition system, a method and use of such system for filling a groove provided into surface of a workpiece with a printable medium, in particular a highly viscous paste. The system includes a deposition head that includes a first deposition chamber that extends to a first orifice. The orifice is reversibly closed off between at least two shutter elements. In some embodiments the system is a dual chamber system, each chamber having a reversible closable orifice. The system is arranged to maintain a flush physical relationship between the workpiece and the terminal ends of the shutter elements, so as to, upon application of a working pressure, fill the groove.

A slot die for manufacturing a rechargeable battery electrode includes a first block with a chamber to accommodate an active material slurry, a second block facing and attached to the first block, a shim between the first and second blocks and including facing end portions, and a slot between the first and second blocks, and between the facing end portions, the slot including a first side defined by the first block, and a second side defined by the second block and facing the first side. Each of the end portions of the shim includes a width adjuster protruding to a second reference point from a first reference point in a width direction by a first adjusting width, extending to a third reference point from the second reference point at a first angle with respect to a discharging direction, and having a first adjusting length in the discharging direction.

A slot die has a die gap which is formed by a first die surface and a second die surface where the second die surface opposes the first die surface. The die gap extends in a width direction and has a height. At least the first die surface has variable degrees of roughness in the width direction.

A preform coating device is provided with: a conveyance part that conveys a preform; a dispenser that discharges a coating liquid toward the preform; a drier that is disposed along the conveyance route of the conveyance part so as to be separated from the dispenser, and that dries the coating liquid applied to the preform by irradiating, with infrared rays, the coating liquid applied to the preform; and a first air sending mechanism that sends air, toward the preform, for inhibiting the temperature of the preform from rising at the position where the preform is irradiated with infrared rays by the drier.

A device and a system for a lacquer transfer with a frame, transfer roller with a circumferential lateral wall, a drive unit, a slit nozzle, the slit nozzle at least indirectly connected to the frame, an outside contact surface of the lateral wall including depressions, the transfer roller mounted rotatably about an axis of rotation at the frame, the drive unit configured to drive the transfer roller for the transfer roller to rotate about the axis of rotation. The slit nozzle includes a supply connection, nozzle-cavity, slit-shaped nozzle-channel and at least one limiter, the supply connection coupled to the nozzle-cavity for supplying lacquer to the nozzle-cavity, the nozzle-channel extending from the nozzle-cavity to a muzzle end formed by the slit nozzle at the end of the nozzle-channel for dispensing lacquer, the slit nozzle configured by the limiter to adjust a cross-section in a restriction area of the nozzle-channel.

According to one embodiment, a liquid delivery member is provided which is to be arranged at a predetermined distance from a processing object, and which is configured to deliver a liquid from a slit while the liquid delivery member and the processing object are caused to make relative displacement therebetween in a first direction. The liquid delivery member includes a delivery amount adjustment part provided on a face that forms the slit, extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and configured to adjust a delivery amount of the liquid.

A multi-layer slot die and method are provided. The multi-layer slot die comprises an upper body member, a lower body member, and a center body member. The upper body member has an upper surface and an upper rear surface. The lower body member has a lower surface and a lower rear surface. The center body has an upper center surface, a lower center surface, and a center rear surface. The upper center surface is spaced apart from the upper surface of the upper body member forming a first channel therebetween. The lower center surface is spaced apart from the lower surface of the lower body member forming a second channel therebetween. The first channel includes a first opening and the second channel includes a second opening. The first and second openings are substantially parallel to the upper rear surface, the lower rear surface, and the center rear surface.

A coating apparatus for a moving web that employs a spreader roller in the upweb position in a tensioned-web-over-slot die coater. The spreader roller can help spread webs laterally in a web processing operation, in particular to reduce or remove the presence of wrinkles or bagginess in the web. The spreader roller can be a reverse crown roll that is covered with a resilient material to assist spreading the web to remove wrinkles. The surface curvature of the spreader roller can be formed using layers of material such as a tape, to easily and readily approximate the shape of a reverse crown roll.
