Nordson ASYMTEK introduced the NexJet NJ-8 system which improves and simplifies the dispensing process for fast-paced production environments where precision, flexibility and long-term reliability are important. Its ReadiSet 2-piece jet cartridge is quickly and easily removed, cleaned, inspected and re-installed without tools, maximising equipment utilisation and up-time.
The system is long-lasting, durable, and has been tested on many fluids, from high-viscosity silicones to low-viscosity reagents, in board-level underfill, chip-scale packaging, ball grid array, package-on-package underfill, precise coating, silicone jetting and adhesive dispensing applications.
Only the parts that come in contact with the fluid have to be removed from the system for cleaning and maintenance. NJ-8 saves fluid, resources, time and cost-of-cleaning, produces a clean dispensing environment, and delivers a reliable result. Nordson claims that cost-of-ownership can be reduced with the NexJet NJ-8 by as much as 20% over other jets.
Patented software manages the dispensing process, controlling fluid velocity, adjusting dot sizes, regulating the amount of fluid dispensed, and compensating for fluid viscosity changes to centre the process window. These process controls, combined with the high quality and capabilities of the NexJet NJ-8, ensure stable and repeatable outcomes for high-yield production.
The NexJet NJ-8 with ReadiSet cartridge comes in a range of cartridge sizes and is available as an upgrade for the Nordson ASYMTEK Spectrum, Quantum and DispenseMate platforms.

A cordless ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) wrist strap does not work by grounding the person in the same way as a traditional wired wrist strap. Instead, it works by reducing or balancing the static charge on your body so that you are less likely to discharge electricity into sensitive electronic components.
