1. 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.
