Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Düsenanordnung (8) für eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen von fließfähigem Material auf ein sich in eine Auftragungsrichtung bewegendes Substrat, die einen Zuführkanal (46) aufweist, mit einer Mundstückaufnahme (68) mit einem Kanal (66), mit dem eine Verbindung für fließfähiges Material mit dem Zuführkanal (46) herstellbar ist und einem Mundstück (70), zur Aufnahme von fließfähigem Material aus dem Kanal (66) und zum Auftragen von fließfähigem Material auf das Substrat, das an die Mundstückaufnahme (68) angebracht ist und einen äußeren Kontaktbereich (74) aufweist, der während des Auftrags fließfähigen Materials mit dem Substrat in Kontakt kommt und einen gekrümmten Abschnitt hat, der während des Auftrags relativ zum Substrat divergiert, einen kreisscheibenförmigen Querschnitt hat und in eine der Richtung der Auftragung des fließfähigen Materials auf das Substrat entgegengesetzte Richtung divergiert.
