An automated mobile sprayer (AMS) includes a mobile base, an applicator arm supported by the mobile base, and a nozzle extending from the applicator arm. The nozzle receives fluid from a fluid supply and generates an atomized fluid spray for application to a surface. The applicator arm moves vertically relative to the mobile base and the surface to cause the nozzle to generate a vertical fluid stripe. The mobile base moves laterally relative to the surface to cause the nozzle to generate a horizontal fluid stripe.

A spray system includes a spray applicator configured to apply a fluid to a grounded target, an electrostatic charge system configured to apply an electrical charge to the fluid, and a vibration system configured to provide tactile feedback to an operator of the spray system based on at least one detected operating parameter of the spray system.

The disclosure concerns a coating device for coating components with a coating agent, in particular for painting motor vehicle body components with a paint, with a printhead for applying the coating agent to the component, and with a coating agent supply for supplying the printhead with the coating agent to be applied, wherein the coating agent flows from the coating agent supply to the printhead at a specific coating agent pressure and a specific flow rate. The disclosure provides that the coating supply will control the coating agent pressure and/or the flow rate of the coating agent. Furthermore, the disclosure includes an associated operating method.

A robot system and a control method of a robot are provided. The robot system includes a robot, a liquid application part being provided on the robot, an application thickness measurement part measuring an application thickness of a liquid applied by the liquid application part, a distance measurement part measuring a first distance from the distance measurement part to an application object, a control part controlling the robot based on the first distance so that a second distance from the liquid application part to the application object becomes constant, a supply amount adjustment part adjusting a supply amount of the liquid to the application object according to the application thickness measured by the application thickness measurement part, wherein the distance measurement part, the liquid application part and the application thickness measurement part are arranged in this order in an application direction of the liquid.

Disclosed is a coating equipment. The coating equipment may include a back roll, a coating die head, and a detection assembly. The coating die head may have a coating opening facing towards the back roll, and the coating opening may extend in an axial direction of the back roll. The detection assembly may be configured to detect a position of the coating die head relative to the back roll. The detection assembly may include a level mounted on the coating die head.

A nozzle for applying a bead of material onto a component or a substrate. A nozzle body has a wall that defines a nozzle duct between a first end and a second end. A first nozzle discharge opening is formed at the second end and connected to the nozzle duct. A second nozzle discharge opening is connected to the nozzle duct and is introduced into the wall at the second end.

A coating method, a coating device and a light-emitting device, the coating method comprises: controlling an ink supply device to stop supplying ink to a micro nozzle when it is determined that the lowest end of an ink droplet from the micro nozzle reaches a first position; determining that the distance between the end of the micro nozzle and a substrate reaches a second distance, the second distance being preset; controlling the ink supply device to continue to supply ink, and controlling the micro nozzle to move relative to the substrate for a pattern coating. The disclosure provides a good pattern forming solution, thereby avoiding the technical problem in the prior art of inkjet printing apparatuses easily causing nozzle clogging.

Exemplary coating devices and exemplary coating methods for coating components with a coating agent, e.g., for painting motor vehicle body components with a paint, are disclosed. An exemplary coating device comprises an application device that applies the coating agent. The application device may include a paint head that discharges the coating agent out of at least one coating agent nozzle.

An end effector, for adhesively attaching a first part to a second part, comprises a support, a first nozzle, movable relative to the support, and a second nozzle, movable relative to the support. The first nozzle comprises a first-nozzle-body outlet port and a first-nozzle separator plate. The second nozzle comprises a second-nozzle-body outlet port and a second-nozzle separator plate. The end effector additionally comprises a first ultrasonic-sensor roller that is rotatable relative to the support, translationally fixed relative to support, and located between the first nozzle and the second nozzle. The end effector also comprises a second ultrasonic-sensor roller that is rotatable relative to the support, translationally fixed relative to support, and located between the first ultrasonic-sensor roller and the second nozzle.

A method of applying a coating product on a surface of a part, this method being carried out using an applicator including at least one row of nozzles, among which at least the first nozzle in the row includes a valve, the method including moving the applicator in a first direction to apply a first layer of coating product, and moving the applicator in a second direction substantially parallel to the first direction to apply a second layer of coating product adjacent to the first layer, comprising measuring at least one application distance of the first nozzle from a point in front of the first nozzle on a path of the applicator, and based on the measured application distance, opening or closing the valve.
