Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for preventing the fouling of a liquid dispensing nozzle. The end of the dispensing nozzle is placed in a hollow interior of a band carrying the same solvent that is dispensed by the nozzle. The solvent on the band evaporates into a gap between the band and the dispensing nozzle, thus providing a vapor sheath, or environment in the gap, that helps to prevent the fouling of the dispensing nozzle.

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: An apparatus is provided for producing pharmaceutical and pharmaceutical-like product. The apparatus provides real-time monitoring of the pharmaceutical product and can provide real-time control. The apparatus monitors the dosage both before and after it has been added to a carrier substrate. The apparatus can provide monitoring of each pharmaceutical product that is processed.

Abstract: A semiconductor wafer is polished by a method which avoids constant instantaneous relative velocity between the wafer and an abrasive medium. The wafer is held by a tooling head and is contacted by an abrasive pad which is fixedly attached to a table. At least one of the tooling head and the table is movable relative to the other. A controller governs movement of the tooling head and/or the table according to a predetermined polishing pattern to initially effect a uniform instantaneous relative velocity between the wafer and the abrasive pad. The wafer is held by the tooling head in an initial orientation with respect to the abrasive pad. By changing the orientation of the wafer with respect to the abrasive pad, the instantaneous relative velocity changes for at least some point on the wafer.

Abstract: An apparatus which produces consistent transverse seals in a continuous shrink film packaging operation to package trays is disclosed. The seals are consistent as a result of constant sealing dwell-time, and are also consistently positioned with respect to the trays. Neat, leak-free packages are produced after shrinking. The apparatus is particularly useful for packaging trays of moisture-containing food products such as chicken parts.
