Abstract: A method for controlling a recirculation pump assembly is disclosed. The method includes receiving a process-dependent characteristic and determining a recirculation flow rate of adhesive that flows to the recirculation pump assembly based on the process-dependent characteristic. The method further includes determining a recirculation pump speed of the recirculation pump assembly for pumping the adhesive to a supply channel using the recirculation flow rate, and adjusting an operating speed of the recirculation pump assembly to match the recirculation pump speed. A system and storage device for performing the above method are also disclosed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods of seasoning food product in a mechanized food product line advantageously seasons the food product in cartons or containers therefor so that the number of days or so of shipment from the process plant to destinations like grocery stores does double duty as time for the seasoning to be absorbed. Food product can be loaded into containers, which are placed on a conveyor line and passed under a seasoning dispenser which thereby applies a top coat. The containers are conveyed to shrink wrap stations or like packaging closure processes, then to refrigerated or freezer storage and onward by refrigerated or freezer motor vehicles. The dispensing apparatus has metering provisions for application of a measured amount and a controller for switching the dispenser ON as a container passes underneath and then OFF as the container goes past.

Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus 1 is configured to supply a processing liquid to a peripheral portion of a wafer W being rotated. The substrate processing apparatus 1 includes a rotating/holding unit 21 configured to rotate and hold the wafer W; a processing liquid discharging unit 73 configured to discharge the processing liquid toward the peripheral portion of the wafer W held by the rotating/holding unit 21; a variation acquiring unit configured to acquire information upon a variation amount of a deformation of the peripheral portion of the wafer W; and a discharge controller 7 configured to control a discharge angle and a discharge position of the processing liquid from the processing liquid discharging unit 73 onto the peripheral portion based on the information upon the variation amount of the deformation of the peripheral portion acquired by the variation acquiring unit.

Abstract: A device for delivering a sealant material includes a first nozzle having a first nozzle head and a second nozzle having a second nozzle head. The first and second nozzle heads each independently have an outlet, an inlet opposite the outlet, and an open channel that extends through a body of the nozzle heads from the inlet to the outlet. The first nozzle is spaced apart from the second nozzle to form a space between the nozzle heads to allow a component to enter a first side of the device and exit a second side of the device while passing by the first and second nozzle heads. A notch is formed through the body of each of the first and second nozzle heads at a side where the component exits the device to distribute a sealant material onto each side of the component.

Abstract: In one example, a pump assembly configured to connect to a manifold of an applicator includes a pump, a drive motor unit, and a thermal isolation region. The drive motor unit includes an output drive shaft connected to the pump and a drive motor configured to rotate the output drive shaft about a drive axis. The thermal isolation region is between the pump and the drive motor. The thermal isolation region includes an isolation plate and a thermal isolation frame. In one example, a cooling sleeve surrounds a proximal end portion of the drive motor unit so as to define an air flow passage between the proximal end portion of the drive motor unit and an inner surface of the cooling sleeve. In one example, the pump assembly further includes a coupling operatively connecting the pump and the drive shaft, the coupling including an insulating element therein.
