A method and apparatus are presented. A first roller has a sensor that senses a speed of the workpiece while the workpiece is in contact with the first roller and moving relative to the first roller causing the first roller to rotate. The sensor senses the speed of the workpiece from a rotation of the first roller. A second roller causes the sealant on the second roller to be applied to a surface of the workpiece when the workpiece is in contact with the second roller and moving relative to the second roller. The second roller is rotationally linked to the first roller. A third roller causes the sealant on the surface of the workpiece to spread on the surface when the workpiece is in contact with the third roller and moving relative to the third roller. The third roller is rotationally linked to the second roller.

An ultraviolet bottom coating system including a conveyor mechanism configured to route a plurality of cans in a machine direction, wherein the plurality of cans each have a bottom surface and uncured coating material applied on the bottom surface. The system also includes at least one ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV-LED) device configured to emit ultraviolet radiation towards the plurality of cans, wherein the ultraviolet radiation is configured to cure the uncured coating material onto the bottom surface.

Plant for making decorations on a bituminous membrane including a feed device configured to feed the bituminous membrane at a determinate speed in a direction, and at least two depositing apparatuses disposed one in series with the other in the direction and configured to deposit solid particles on the bituminous membrane according to respective patterns in order to obtain respective decorations on the bituminous membrane. The depositing apparatuses each includes a transfer member configured to receive, support and transfer the solid particles from a respective feed device, to the surface to be enhanced of the bituminous membrane.

Systems for applying low viscosity print coating to a web product using a coating roller and an off-press system are provided herein. An example system includes an unwinding station and a winding station. A motor causes the web product to travel along a web path. A coating roller applies a low viscosity print coating to a first side of the web product at a first position along the web path. The low viscosity print coating comprises a salt solution with a centipoise that is less than or equal to 100 centipoise that is configured to enhance printability. A backing roller applies a backing coating to a second, opposite side of the web product at a second, different position along the web path. The backing coating enhances sheet stability of the web product. A drying station dries the low viscosity print coating and the backing coating to remove moisture.

A coating device for the register-accurate application of plastic material to a carrier sheet comprises a first coating roll and a downstream second coating roll, wherein each of the first and second coating rolls has at least one cavity that can be filled with plastic material by means of at least one nozzle. First and second stripping means strip the respective first and second coating rolls. The first coating roll interacts with a first mating roll and coats a first carrier sheet side and the second coating roll interacts with a second mating roll and coats a second carrier sheet side. The second mating roll comprises at least one mating cavity corresponding to the at least one first cavity. In addition, the coating device comprises at least one carrier sheet positioning device and a coated region detection device. Related methods of coating a carrier sheet are also disclosed.

A system for automated pavement marker placement is disclosed, comprising a gun for applying a melted attachment substance onto a road surface, and a marker placement device for positioning a pavement marker onto the substance. The system includes one or more sensors to measure the speed of the gun and marker placement device, and processors to determine activation times for the gun and marker placement device based on speed and distance parameters. The described system addresses the technical problem of precise marker placement at varying speeds, providing a solution that ensures accurate alignment and adhesion of markers. The system is primarily used in road construction and maintenance, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in marker application. The processors dynamically adjust activation times in response to speed changes, optimizing the process for consistent results.
