Problem: To provide a technology for forming a planar liquid film having less surface unevenness than ever before using a jet-type discharge device.

Solution: Provided is a planar liquid film forming method of forming a planar liquid film on an application target using a jet-type discharge device having a plurality of discharge ports, and an apparatus for implementing the method. In the method, the plurality of discharge ports are arranged on a straight nozzle arrangement line 140, and are arranged with such a distance from one another that globs of a liquid material having landed on the application target can join together to form a linear liquid film. The method includes: a unitary linear liquid film forming step of forming a unitary linear liquid film 404 by discharging the liquid material such that a plurality of liquid globs simultaneously discharged from the plurality of discharge ports have no contact with one another before landing on the application target, and by letting globs of the liquid material having landed join together on the application target; and a specific planar liquid film forming step of forming a specific planar liquid film 405 from a plurality of unitary linear liquid films 404 by successively executing the unitary linear liquid film forming steps while moving the jet-type discharge device and the application target relative to each other in a direction perpendicular to the nozzle arrangement line 140 so that the plurality of unitary linear liquid films 404 join together.

A component for an electric machine includes a flat region in which an electric line runs when the component is integrated into the electric machine and which includes a sharp edged structure. A polymer layer adheres to the flat region without further aid such as to mask the sharp-edged structure and thereby protect from damage the electric line on the flat region. The polymer layer is made of cured plastic adhesive and jetted onto the flat region in the form of threads, such that the threads are spin-coated on top of one another in the form of overlapping loops and form a network structure which spans the sharp-edged structure.

A system and method for assembling a plurality of components into an assembly is provided. The system includes an assembling robot and an adhesive dispensing robot. The assembling robot is configured to attach a first sub-assembly to a second sub-assembly. The first sub-assembly includes at least one of the plurality of components, and the second sub-assembly includes remaining ones of the plurality of components. The adhesive dispensing robot is configured to apply an adhesive between the first sub-assembly and the second sub-assembly, after the first sub-assembly is attached to the second sub-assembly, to bond the first sub-assembly to the second sub-assembly.

An effective implementation is shown for a height adjustment system for a plurality of spray guns used in a line striper.

Methods of dispensing fluid are disclosed. A first applicator is positioned above a first dispense site at a first dispense region of a first electronic substrate by moving the first applicator using a primary positioner. A second applicator is simultaneously positioned above a first dispense site at a second dispense region of the first electronic substrate by moving the second applicator together with the first applicator using the primary positioner and moving the second applicator relative to the first applicator using a secondary positioner. It is then determined that the first or the second dispense region is misaligned relative to the other of the first or the second dispense region. Fluid is dispensed from the first applicator while moving the first applicator using the primary positioner to form a first fluid pattern at the first dispense region and fluid is simultaneously dispensed from the second applicator while moving the second applicator using the primary positioner and the secondary positioner.

A fastener painting system is a system for painting a head of a fastener. The system includes: a cup for covering the head of the fastener by contacting an edge of the cup with a surface of the object; a supply system; a liquid discharging system; and a moving mechanism. The cup has a cavity for being filled up with paint. The supply system is configured to store the paint and supply the paint into the cavity of the cup. The liquid discharging system is configured to discharge surplus paint in the cavity out of the cup. The moving mechanism is configured to change a position of the cup relative to the object. The cup has a supply port for supplying the paint into the cavity, a vent for discharging air in the cavity out, and a liquid discharging port for discharging the surplus paint out of the cavity.

Aspects herein relate to coating apparatus and methods for coating medical devices. In an embodiment, a coating system is included having a valve, a fluid supply reservoir in fluid communication with the valve, a reciprocating positive displacement pump in fluid communication with the valve, and a fluid applicator in fluid communication with the three-way valve. The valve can be configured to assume a first fluid transport state and a second fluid transport state, wherein the valve provides fluid communication between the fluid supply reservoir and the reciprocating positive displacement pump when in the first fluid transport state for filling of the reciprocating positive displacement pump, and wherein the valve provides fluid communication between the reciprocating positive displacement pump and the fluid applicator when in the second fluid transport state for applying a coating suspension to a medical device surface. Other embodiments are also included herein.
