COATING APPLICATOR

To provide a coating applicator which applies coating onto a substrate conveyed by roll-to-roll, without causing distortion due to an alignment.SOLUTION: Provided is a coating applicator which applies a coating liquid onto a top surface of a substrate by moving a coating nozzle in a space above the top surface of the substrate conveyed by roll-to-roll. The coating applicator includes: a coating nozzle; a scanning part which causes the coating nozzle to move in a linear direction; a rotary part which causes the scanning part to rotate; a conveyance direction moving part which moves the rotary part in a conveyance direction of a substrate; angular deviation detection means which detects an angular deviation relative to a coating region on a substrate before coating; and a control part which rotates the rotary part in accordance with an angular deviation relative to a coating region on a substrate that is detected by the angular deviation detection means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】ロールトゥロールで搬送されてくる基板に対して基板のアライメントによる歪を生じさせずに塗布する塗布装置を提供する。【解決手段】ロールトゥロールで搬送される基板の上面より上の空間で塗布ノズルを移動させて基板の上面に塗布液を塗布する塗布装置において、塗布ノズルと、塗布ノズルを直線方向に移動させる走査部と、走査部を回転させる回転部と、回転部を基板の搬送方向に移動させる搬送方向移動部と、塗布前に基板上の塗布領域に対する角度ずれを検出する角度ずれ検出手段と、角度ずれ検出手段で検出した基板上の塗布領域に対する角度ずれに合わせて回転部を回転させる制御部と、を有する【選択図】 図４
