Abstract: A device for producing a strip-shaped composite sheet may comprise at least two outer metal cover sheets and at least one plastic layer disposed between the two outer metal cover sheets. The device may further comprise at least one first laminating device for laminating the metal cover sheets with the at least one plastic layer arranged between the metal cover sheets, with the first laminating device comprising at least two laminating rolls forming a laminating gap. One object of the present disclosure is to provide methods and devices for producing composite sheets, with which the economy, in particular the production speed, of the production method can be significantly increased and at the same time the risk of delamination of the composite sheets during the further processing can be reduced.

Abstract: A method and a device for coating may involve continuously supplying a precursor, in some cases at a constant precursor level, to a plurality of coating modules. As a result, a continuous coating operation is ensured. Moreover, one such method for supplying a precursor to a plurality of coating modules of a coating device may be employed where, for example, the coating modules have a pick-off device and a supply line, the supply line which may be configured as a riser at least in some regions. Precursor may be supplied by the supply line to the pick-off device of the coating module.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for guiding bands to be joined to one another along their longitudinal edges, comprising guide elements which form tracks for guiding the bands that are configured such that the bands approach one another in the transport direction and the longitudinal edges thereof rest on one another at a non-overlapping contact point. At least one of the tracks may be configured to undulate with a wavelength of ¼???2, such that transverse displacement of the band guided thereon occurs. The axes of rotation and/or longitudinal central axes of the guide elements may also be inclined towards one another at different angles of inclination in relation to a horizontal plane of reference, such that the band guided on said track is rotated about its longitudinal axis in the transport direction.

Abstract: A device and a method for guiding bands to be joined to one another along their longitudinal edges, in which bands are guided via deflection rollers to a joining position. The device according to the invention provides that the deflection roller located closer to the joining position is configured as a conical roller, the deflection roller arranged upstream of this conical roller in the running direction of the band being also configured as a conical roller or as a deflection roller having a cylindrical lateral surface, and the conical roller last mentioned tapering in the direction of the other longitudinal edge of the band, or the rotational axis of the deflection roller having a cylindrical lateral surface spatially approaching the rotational axis of the conical roller arranged downstream in the running direction of the band on the edge side of the band opposing the longitudinal edge to be joined.
