I recall seeing a plate coating machine for wet plates. The plate revolved
on a holder in an open cylinder. I think the coating was poured into the
centre while it was spinning. I have images in mind that it may not have
been level - but its 40 years ago. I'm sure that such technology would be
well documented in the earlier process engraving trade books or magazines.
