Abstract
An application device for applying a coating liquid to a moving web which forms an applied layer of uniform thickness and with smooth surface properties. The sides of a slotted portion of an extrusion-type application head are provided with sloped or stepped portions in regions adjacent liquid-free areas of the web. This prevents scratching of the web and accumulation of extraneous matter at the edge portions of the application head.
