Abstract
A method includes contacting a first guide, coupled to a body of a nozzle, with a first side of an object; biasing a gate toward the first guide so that a second guide contacts a second side of the object; moving the nozzle along the object while maintaining the first guide in contact with the first side, and the second guide in contact with the second side; and applying the bead of the glutinous substance to the surface via an outlet opening of the nozzle while moving the nozzle along the object, wherein width of the bead and flow of the glutinous substance through the outlet opening are controlled via movement of the gate relative to the body.
