Abstract: A system for applying a coating to a substrate. The system includes a coating station for applying a coating material to the substrate, where the coating station has a bottom portion, an oven for curing the coating material on the substrate, where the oven is positioned vertically below the bottom portion, and a first lift for transporting the substrate from the coating station to the oven. The system can also include an inspection station for inspecting the substrate. Each of the separate elements of the coating system, including the coating station, first lift, oven, and inspection station can define self-contained modules.

Abstract: Systems and methods for enhanced coating dispensing controls are disclosed. A dispensing system is configured to apply material to a sequence of substrates. The dispensing system applies a first amount of material to a first substrate according to a first value of an operating parameter. A sensor is used to measure a characteristic of the first amount of material applied on the first substrate. Based on the characteristic of the first amount of material applied on the first substrate, a characteristic of an amount of material, after being applied on a subsequent substrate in the sequence of substrates, is estimated to be outside of a range. The value of the operating parameter is adjusted in response and a second amount of material is applied to a second substrate.
