Abstract:
A strand coating system and method including drawing (710) a strand having major and minor dimensions past an adhesive dispensing nozzle, orienting (720) at least a portion of the strand so that the major dimension of the strand is substantially parallel to a direction in which adhesive is dispensed from the adhesive dispensing nozzle as the portion of the strand is drawn past the adhesive dispensing nozzle, and applying (730) adhesive to the strand as the strand is drawn past the adhesive dispensing nozzle.
