Abstract:
An apparatus for controlling a plurality of material applicators, comprising:a power supply for supplying an input signal to power an activated material applicator out of the plurality of material applicators;a plurality of controllers that allow transmission of the input signal to the activated material applicator and prevent transmission of the input signal to non-activated material applicators;a plurality of contacts corresponding to the plurality of material applicators;a plurality of independently adjustable signal regulators, each adjustable signal regulator corresponding with one of the plurality of contacts and one of the plurality of material applicators, wherein the contact corresponding to the activated material applicator closes to allow the input signal from the power supply to be modified by the independently adjustable signal regulator corresponding to the activated material applicator to generate an adjusted signal that controls an operating characteristic of the activated material applicator.
