Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coating a workpiece (11), wherein a coating material (12) is adhered to a surface of the workpiece (11) by means of an adhesive layer (13), having the steps: defining a model for optimizing at least one target variable, in which the adjustment of at least one control variable in dependence on a plurality of disturbance variables is mapped, determining a plurality of disturbance variables which influence the coating operation, and adjusting at least one control variable by means of the model and on the basis of the determined disturbance variables, and to a coating device (10) for coating a workpiece (11), and to a computer program for setting up a coating device (10).

Abstract: A device for removing hot-melt adhesive from a rotating, vertically-arranged roller (1), comprising: a hollow, preferably hollow cylindrical, scraper (2), characterized in that the scraper (2) comprises an opening (6) on the circumferential surface thereof along the longitudinal axis, at which opening a strike plate (3) that protrudes radially outward is arranged, and wherein the strike plate (3) is arranged such that it can be brought into a position for removing adhesive from the roller (1) and can convey the removed adhesive towards the circumferential inner side of the scraper (2).

Abstract: A positioning, navigation and timing solutions for a ground-based device is determined by receiving a satellite RF signal at the ground-based device. It is determined whether the RF signal is from a satellite of interest. A satellite of interest has known data, enabling an estimation of a current location of the satellite. The RF signal frequency of the satellite of interest is used to collect observed Doppler measurements and time of receipt of the RF signal. The position, navigation and timing solution is determined as a function of the observed Doppler measurements, known data regarding the characteristics of the satellite, and predicted Doppler measurements to enable an estimation of the current location of the receiver.
