Disclosed is a device for spreading an adhesive on a film, including at least a first metering roller and at least a second metering roller, which rotates in contact with an adhesive, the surface of the first metering roller being spaced from the surface of the second metering roller by a gap so that a portion of the surface of the second metering roller is coated with a uniform layer of adhesive, and a regulating device for moving at least the first metering roller with respect to the second metering roller to vary the width of the gap, wherein the regulating device is controlled by a control unit, the control unit being configured to control the position of the first metering roller and to regulate the width of the gap as a function of geometric and/or dimensional parameters of the first metering roller.

Systems and methods for dispensing liquid materials as may be used in applications for coating flexible films and the like. Such a film may be coated by dispensing a rheological material onto its surface while drawing the film through a gap between a pair of rollers. The gap defines the thickness of a layer of the material applied to the film and is maintained at a desired width by microwires positioned through the gap. Another film across the gap from that to which the rheological material is applied aids in the coating of the layer and a contact area of the second film may be adjusted relative to the gap, e.g., when changing materials or when the coating film becomes abraded or deformed.

A gluing group for a rewinding machine for applying glue to an end edge of a log comprising a delivery roller (12) supported in an idle manner by supporting and translation guiding elements (15, 16), delivery means (20) for delivering a glue line (11) on one of the generatrices of the delivery roller (12), a linear actuator (30) connected to said delivery roller (12) to transmit the approaching and distancing movement of the delivery roller (12) against the paper (11) being wound onto a contrast roller (115). A rewinding machine comprising such gluing group and a related method for gluing the end edge also form part of the invention.

In a coating system, two rollers are arranged adjacent to one another. A donor foil with rheological material dispensed thereon is advanced through a gap between the two rollers. Such gap spreads the dispensed material over the donor foil, coating the donor foil with a layer of the material with a uniform thickness associated with the gap width. Each roller is supported on a holder. Adjustment of the gap width may be effected by keeping the position of one of the holders fixed, while horizontally translating the position of the other holder. The position of the translatable holder may be adjusted by pistons and linear actuators. The pistons may bias the moveable holder towards the stationary holder. The linear actuators mounted on the moveable holder may extend respective arms against the stationary holder, thereby countering the biasing of the pistons and pushing the moveable holder away from the stationary holder.

A coating device for supplying a liquid to a substrate, particularly in the form of an optionally printed web, foil, strip or sheet, comprises a reservoir for holding a quantity of liquid. A coating assembly is provided which is able and configured to take liquid from the reservoir and transfer it to the substrate. A supply delivers the liquid into the reservoir during operation. The supply is controllable and is able to lead a constant liquid flow into the reservoir. The reservoir is provided with a level detector capable and configured to detect a liquid level in the reservoir. Provided between the level detector tools and the coating assembly is a control which controls the coating assembly during operation on the basis of a detection (LS) of the liquid level in the reservoir in order to maintain the liquid level at a fixed value.

The present application provides a chain-type roller coating apparatus, including a liquid coating roller and a synchronizing wheel. The synchronizing wheel is provided with a mounting hole. A proximity switch is arranged on an outer side of the synchronizing wheel. The synchronizing wheel is further provided with a trigger element which is configured to be sensed by the proximity switch. The liquid coating roller is assembled with the mounting hole of the synchronizing wheel by a connecting shaft. A shaft main body of the connecting shaft is equipped with a rotation support device configured to support a rotation of the shaft main body. The rotation support device is equipped with a first lifting driving device configured to drive the rotation support device to ascend or descend vertically. A ranging sensor is arranged exactly above the liquid coating roller.
