Application device for coating components with a coating agent

An application device for coating components with a coating agent, comprising:

• a print head comprising several individual nozzles configured to discharge the coating agent;
• and
• a nozzle valve attached to each individual nozzle, each nozzle valve being openable for a valve opening time to discharge the coating agent from the respective nozzle,
• wherein each nozzle valve is assigned in each case a nozzle valve supply line, which nozzle valve supply line, at an outlet opening thereof, is configured to supply the coating agent to the respective nozzle valve, and
• wherein each nozzle valve supply line has an inlet opening which is configured to be closed or shut off such that a quantity of the coating agent that is metered in a defined manner or a volume of the coating agent that is metered in a defined manner is receivable in a closed off manner within the nozzle valve supply line, each nozzle valve supply line being elastically and/or reversibly deformable.
