Abstract:
A device for applying successive layers of a viscous substance and tape to a pipe includes a hollow cylinder surrounding the pipe. The pipe is displaceable axially while the cylinder is rotatably driven. The cylinder includes circumferentially spaced openings through which the viscous substance is passed to the pipe surface. A tape spool is connected to the end of the cylinder and rotates together with the cylinder to apply tape about the pipe.
Abstract:
In a lumber factory, an automated laminated veneer lumber (LVL) process supported by a lumber production line employing a cross-cutting and rip-sawing stage, a dip-coating stage, a spray-coating stage, a print-marking stage, and a stacking, packaging and wrapping stage. At the dip-coating stage, cross-cut and rip-sawed LVL product is automatically transported and submerged through a dipping reservoir containing clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) liquid, and then wet-stacked and set aside to dry. Once dried, the dip-coated LVL products are returned to the production line and sprayed coated with a moisture, fire and UV protective coating at the spray-coating stage, and then passed through a drying tunnel for quick drying of the spray-coating to produce Class-A fire-protected LVL products. The Class-A fire-protected LVL products are stacked, packaged and wrapped at the stacking, packaging and wrapping stage into a package of Class-A fire-protected LVL products, ready for shipping.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for producing an adhesive tape (2), comprising a supply unit (5) for supplying a strip-type textile carrier (3) of the adhesive tape (2), and a coating unit (6) for applying an at least lamellar adhesive coating (4) to at least one side of the carrier (3). The invention also relates to an ultrasound unit (9 and 10) and/or a laser unit for producing perforations and/or cut edges in the carrier (3).
Abstract:
A fluid application device for mechanical fasteners such as rivets, screws, bolts, and similar fasteners, and a robot end effector including such a device as well as a robot being equipped therewith. The fluid application device includes a fluid application element having a curved application surface, wherein the curved application surface includes a channel configured to receive a fluid. A brush is arranged at the curved application surface such that the fluid is able to wet the brush elements. The device further includes a gripping device configured to push a mechanical fastener against the wetted brush elements.
