Zusammenfassung:A method of depositing a bead of adhesive onto a surface of a wind turbine blade component is disclosed. The method comprises supplying adhesive to an adhesive deposition tool and using the adhesive deposition tool to apply a bead of adhesive to the surface. The adhesive deposition tool is caused to vibrate during the application of the adhesive to improve the conformance of a cross-sectional profile of the bead of adhesive with a profile of the adhesive deposition tool. An apparatus for applying an adhesive bead to a surface of a wind turbine blade is also disclosed.
