Abstract
In a method for coating of disc-shaped data storage media with a coating medium at least one coating nozzle is moved quickly by a first movement into the vicinity of a coating medium application location at the inner area of a storage medium and subsequently the at least one application nozzle is moved slowly by a second movement to the location of application. The coating medium is applied at the location of application and is distributed by a centrifugal force resulting from rotation of the storage medium. The device for coating disc-shaped data storage media with a coating medium has a rotatable support for the storage medium and at least one coating nozzle comprising a drive unit for moving the at least one coating nozzle across the storage medium to a location of application of the coating medium. The drive unit is a hydraulic arrangement with a first hydraulic cylinder for a first, fast movement and a second hydraulic cylinder for a second, slow movement of the at least one coating nozzle.
