Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing a medication comprising an ejector unit adapted for ejecting a predefined amount of a drug having a liquid component to a solid carrier substrate. The ejector unit comprises a capillary and a tubular piezoelectric actuator surrounding at least a part of the capillary. The apparatus further comprises a control unit adapted for applying an electric signal to the piezoelectric actuator which, in response to the electric signal, is adapted to generate a compressional wave in the capillary for ejecting the predefined amount of the drug via an orifice of the capillary. Moreover, a method of manufacturing a medication is provided, the method comprising ejecting a predefined amount of a drug having a liquid component to a solid carrier substrate. Furthermore, a medication is provided comprising a solid carrier substrate, and a predefined amount of a drug ejected with a liquid component to the solid carrier substrate by an ejector unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sheet-like radiation-sensitive recording material whose surface is a discontinuous dulling layer comprising monodisperse particles is present. The dulling layer can be produced by spraying on a dulling liquid. An apparatus comprising an oscillation generator, which can transmit oscillations to the liquid in the apparatus, and has an orifice plate which has at least one hole with a diameter of from 5 to 250 .mu.m and from which the liquid emerges in the form of at least one laminar free jet which disintegrates into monodisperse drops is suitable for this purpose. The oscillation generator is preferably a piezoelectric ceramic.
