Requirements.

  • Precise and repeatable shot volume.
  • Accurate mix ratio.
  • Fast dispense cycles for high production rates.
  • Handle high-viscosity and thixotropic materials.
  • Handle significant viscosity differences between A and B components.
  • Consistent filling of relatively small insert cavities.
  • Minimize excess material and cleanup.
  • Manual, semi-automatic or fully automated dispensing capability.

Fluidic solution.

  • PK1D for suitable fixed-ratio materials.
  • PK2D for variable-ratio and demanding viscosity combinations.
  • Servo-controlled dispensing for precise, repeatable small shots.
  • Programmable shot size and flow rate.
  • Integration with XYZ tables or robotic systems for automated insert potting.
  • Cartridge loading configuration where prefilled cartridges are part of the process.
