Abstract:
This disclosure is directed to an improved process for making glass articles having optical coating and easy-to clean coating thereon, an apparatus for the process and a product made using the process. In particular, the disclosure is directed to a process in which the application of the optical coating and the easy-to-clean coating can be sequentially applied using a single apparatus. Using the combination of the coating apparatus and the substrate carrier described herein results in a glass article having both optical and easy-to-clean coating that have improved scratch resistance durability and optical performance, and in addition the resulting articles are “shadow free.”
Abstract:
A continuous dosage form coating apparatus uses vibrational impulses to maintain a dosage forms in a fluid state to expose them to a coating material atomized by spraying.
Abstract:
A system and method for providing adhesive to a pre-formed blister tray having shoulders and recesses between the shoulders, the system having at least one pallet, each pallet of the at least one pallet having with holes to accommodate recesses within the blister tray and support for the shoulders of the blister tray; a pallet loading station for loading the pallet with the pre-formed blister tray; a printer unit for printing adhesive to the shoulders of the blister tray; a drying station for drying the adhesive; and an unloading station for unloading blister trays with adhesive printed on the shoulders thereof. Further a pallet for use in the system.
Abstract:
Methods for processing a vessel, for example to provide a gas barrier or lubricity, are disclosed. First and second PECVD or other vessel processing stations or devices and a vessel holder comprising a vessel port are provided. An opening of the vessel can be seated on the vessel port. The interior surface of the seated vessel can be processed via the vessel port by the first and second processing stations or devices. Vessel barrier, lubricity and hydrophobic coatings and coated vessels, for example syringes and medical sample collection tubes are disclosed. A vessel processing system and vessel inspection apparatus and methods are also disclosed
Abstract:
A masking apparatus is provided for masking a workpiece, for example a turbine blade, to protect portions thereof from the deposition of coating material thereon during selective application of a coating material to other portions of the workpiece. The masking apparatus includes an enclosure formed of a first mask half body defining a first cavity half and a second mask half body defining a second cavity half. The first mask half body and the second mask half body mate in assembly to form a workpiece cavity it which the workpiece may be enclosed.

Abstract:
A display panel manufacturing device including a stage slider, a first stage configured to slide on the stage slider and to receive a test substrate, a second stage on the stage slider and configured to receive a main substrate, and a patterning unit located at a distance from the stage slider and configured to discharge organic drops onto the test substrate, configured to analyze patterns of the organic drops, configured to modify the patterns of the discharged organic drops according to an analysis of the patterns of the organic drops, and configured to discharge the organic drops onto the main substrate.
Abstract:
The invention provides coating units, heat-treating units, and a first main transport mechanism for transporting substrates to each of these treating units. The substrates are transferred from the first main transport mechanism to a second main transport mechanism through a receiver. When a substrate cannot be placed on the receiver, this substrate is placed on a buffer. Thus, the first main transport mechanism can continue transporting other substrates. The other substrates in the treating units are transported between the treating units without delay, to receive a series of treatments including coating treatment and heat treatment as scheduled. This prevents lowering of the quality of treatment for forming film on the substrates.
Abstract:
A substrate processing system for processing an essentially vertically oriented substrate is described. The system includes a first processing chamber having a first processing region to deposit a first layer comprising a first material, a second processing chamber having a second processing region to deposit a second layer over the first layer, the second layer comprising a second material, a third processing chamber having a third processing region to deposit a layer comprising the second material, a transfer chamber providing essentially linear transport paths with the first, second, and third chambers, respectively, and a chamber comprising a first and a second transportation track, wherein at least one of the first and second transportation tracks forms an essentially linear transportation path with the first processing chamber, wherein the first chamber is adapted to receive the substrate from the transfer chamber, and to deposit a further layer comprising the first material.
Abstract:
A device for lacquering or coating a substrate is disclosed. The device includes a substrate plate configured to accommodate said substrate, and one or more suction points connected to, and extending upwardly from, the substrate plate. The one or more suction points may be configured to provide a vacuum to said substrate.
