Abstract:
Um eine exakt dosierbare und ortsaufgelöste Beschichtung von Unterlagen zu ermöglichen, sieht die Erfindung ein Verfahren zum Auftragen von Beschichtungen, wie insbesondere von Lacken auf Oberflächen mit einer Vorrichtung vor, die einen Dosierkopf umfasst, welcher zumindest eine durch ein Steuersignal ansteuerbare Düse aufweist. Das Verfahren umfasst die Schritte: Bewegen einer Unterlage (2) mit einer zu beschichtenden. Oberfläche (3) entlang dieser Oberfläche (3) relativ zum Dosierkopf (10) und/oder Bewegen des Dosierkopfs (10) relativ zu einer zu beschichtenden Oberfläche (3) einer Unterlage (2), und Auftragen eines fluiden Beschichtungsmaterials auf die Oberfläche durch die Düse unter Ansprechen auf zumindest ein von einem Rechner (12) erzeugtes Steuersignal.
Abstract:
A method of forming an ordered optic fiber array is provided by forming an array of holes (12) in a glass block (10) based on an enlarged pattern of a desired precision array, heating and drawing the glass block from a first end thereof, and reducing an outside dimension of the glass block and the array of holes to a predetermined size for the precision array. A portion of the alignment block body (18) is separated to form at least one fiber alignment plate (14), and optic fibers (22) are attached. This can be used in a connector arrangement (30) for optic fibers (22) having first and second fiber alignment plates (32, 34) being located on a floating mount. Alignment structures are located on the alignment plate (16) for precise alignment. Another method of assembling an ordered optic fiber array can be used in which optic fibers are positioned with a computer-controlled manipulator and adhered to a substrate.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus for the application of coatings to surfaces of substrates in the form of paper, paperboard, or plastics foils, preferably for the finishing of print products. The apparatus encompasses a coating unit for the application of coating material in fluid form to the substrate surface, and equipment for smoothing of the film while it is still fluid after it has been applied by means of the coating unit to the substrate surface, where the equipment encompasses equipment for generating a gas stream orientated onto the substrate surface coated with the film, where the gas stream smooths the film with at least partial elimination of undesired structures in the film surface, e.g. depressions, elevations and craters, prior to the hardening of the coating material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the production of glass substrates for electronic storage media, comprising the following steps: Production of a pressed glass blank, the outer diameter of which corresponds to the outer diameter of the glass substrate for storage media, dressing the surface of the substrate by means of lapping and polishing processes and/or grinding by means of lapping kinematics. The invention is characterised in that during the pressing process, the introduction of the inner aperture and the individual dressing processes, no microscopic cracks are produced which limit the function of the electronic storage medium and thus the chemical tempering step for stabilisation of the microscopic cracks is not required.
Abstract:
A mesh (36) is placed around a bundle (32) of fused glass fibers. The bundle is then immersed in a leaching bath (44). The ends of the bundle are protected from the bath fluid by ferrules (34). Some of the glass of the bundle is leached out, so as to provide a flexible fiber bundle.

Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen von Beschichtungen auf Oberflächen von Substraten in Form von Papier, Karton oder Kunststoffolien, vorzugsweise zur Veredelung von Druckerzeugnissen. Die Vorrichtung umfasst eine Beschichtungseinheit zum Auftragen von Beschichtungsmaterial in fluider Form auf die Substratoberfläche, sowie eine Einrichtung zur Glättung des auf die Substratoberfläche mittels der Beschichtungseinheit aufgetragenen, noch fluiden Films, wobei die Einrichtung eine Einrichtung zur Erzeugung eines Gasstroms umfasst, welcher auf die mit dem Film beschichtete Substratoberfläche gerichtet ist und den Film unter zumindest teilweiser Beseitigung von unerwünschten Strukturen der Filmoberfläche, wie Vertiefungen, Erhöhungen und Kratern vor der Aushärtung des Beschichtungsmaterials glättet.
