Jet dispensing system

27 January 2016 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Nordson EFD has introduced innovative piezoelectric jetting technology that removes the barrier between speed and accuracy. The new PICO Pìlse valve and PICO Toìch controller make it possible to dispense very exact, repeatable micro-deposits as small as 0,5 nl at up to 500 Hz continuous, with 1500 Hz maximum bursts – an industry best.

The non-contact jet valve’s modular design makes it possible to jet low- to high-viscosity fluids onto any surface, including uneven and tough-to-reach substrates. Exchangeable parts provide versatility, while variable stroke, improved close time and faster full stroke open time make Pìlse one of the most robust jet dispensing valves on the market.

The Toìch controller features an easy-to-use, intuitive touch screen interface for precise control of the valve. Users can set extremely precise operating parameters, such as ramp open and close, and stroke control to fine-tune dispensing performance. Pulse time can be adjusted in increments as small as 0,01 ms, and better slope control delivers more repeatable deposits while preventing turbulence and air bubbles from entering the fluid.
