Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0941956A1] The deformation of the flexible guide (7,12) causes an extension of the time lapse during which the guide and the product (1) are in contact with each other. The flexible guide is supported by at least one support (8,15). It can be stationary or movable. For the deformation of the guide an arc-shaped length (11) of it is selected. It is deformable between supports (8,9). The flexible guide passes through a fluid application station where a fluid is applied to its surface. It also passes through a cleaning station where impurities on its surface are removed.
