Abstract
A coating apparatus and method is disclosed for applying coating material onto a web supported by a backing member. The apparatus includes a housing which is disposed closely adjacent to the backing member. The arrangement is such that the web supported by the backing member moves between the backing member and the housing. The housing defines a chamber having an open end facing towards the backing member. A coating shoe slidably cooperates with the web, the shoe being movably disposed within the chamber. The shoe defines a cavity which is connected to a source of pressurized coating material. The cavity has an exposed face towards the web such that the coating material flows into the cavity and through the exposed face for applying the material onto the web.
