    摘要: A device actuation system for actuating a treatment device includes a first drive gear rotatably mountable to the treatment device, a coupler rail slidably mountable to the treatment device, a second drive gear rotatably mountable to the coupler rail, and a coupler gear rotatably mountable to the treatment device and engageable with the coupler rail. In addition, the device actuation system includes a drive rail locatable between the first drive gear and the second drive gear of the gear system. The coupler gear is rotatable to move the coupler rail in a manner maintaining the second drive gear in continuous engagement with the drive rail against the first drive gear. The first drive gear and the second drive gear are rotatable in a manner causing at least one of translation and rotation of the treatment device relative to the drive rail.

    摘要: A method of monitoring cleaning of an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, the apparatus including a rotatable deflecting element for atomizing the coating medium; and a cleaning medium line for conducting a cleaning medium to the deflecting element; where the method including commanding performance of a cleaning operation including delivery of the cleaning medium through the cleaning medium line towards the deflecting element while rotating the deflecting element; collecting operational values of at least one operational parameter of the apparatus for the cleaning operation; comparing the operational values with reference values of the at least one operational parameter for the cleaning operation; and determining whether the cleaning operation was successful or unsuccessful based on the comparison. A method of cleaning an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object is also provided.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to a path correction method for correcting paint tracks when coating a component (e.g., motor vehicle body component) with a coating agent (e.g., paint). The path correction method includes:



    Defining a reference path,
    applying a first paint track of the coating agent to the component, where the first paint track and the reference path run adjacent to one another and ideally adjoin one another without a path error at a seam,
    determining the interfering path error at the seam between the first paint track and the adjacent reference path, and
    determining path correction values for correcting the course of the first paint track in a subsequent coating operation, the path correction values being determined as a function of the path error.




    Furthermore, the disclosure comprises a corresponding coating method and a correspondingly adapted coating system.

    摘要: The systems and methods described herein relate to basting food-related items. The food-related items may include baked goods, baking sheets, cake pans, cupcake pans, and the like. The food items may include pastries, baked good, pies, etc. The item to be basted, glazed, or otherwise deposited with a fluid is placed in a target area. A movable head is then able to move along a track and distribute a fluid over the fluid-related item. The item is stationary during the process.
