Nordson EFD Features Three New Dispensing Systems at The Assembly Show

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

Nordson EFD, a Nordson company, the world's leading precision fluid dispensing systems manufacturer, will introduce its third new series of dispensing valves at The Assembly Show, October 27-29, 2015 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, Rosemont, IL, at booth 823. The new series will join the recently introduced PICO® Pµlse valve and PICO Toµch controller and xQR41 MicroDot mini-needle valve. Nordson EFD's latest automated closed-loop dispensing system with vision and laser height sensing, the PRO Series, will also be on display.

"There is a wide range of requirements for fluid dispensing," explained Dennis Dameron, Director of Sales, Americas, Nordson EFD. "Some applications primarily require speed, others demand accuracy, and some need both. Dispensing is used by companies with just a few parts for prototyping or R&D, manufacturers with low volume/high mix products, and high-volume manufacturers. Some manufacturers need a product fully packed with features while others need a basic workhorse of a dispensing system. Nordson EFD's new product lines can accommodate an extremely wide array of dispensing niches."

Nordson EFD's new PICO Pµlse valve and PICO Toµch controller make it possible to dispense very exact, repeatable micro-deposits as small as 0.5 nL at up to 500Hz continuous, with 1500Hz maximum bursts - an industry best. Just released this fall, the piezoelectric jetting technology removes the barrier between speed and accuracy.

The xQR41 Series MicroDot needle valve, introduced in June, features a 60% smaller form factor, an exchangeable modular design for greater customization and process control, and a Quick Release (QR) clasp that allows easy removal of the fluid body to replace wetted parts in seconds.

In addition, Nordson EFD will present the paper "Latest Advances in Precision Fluid Dispensing Technologies, Including New Jetting Systems" on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, from 12:00-12:40 PM as part of the Showcase Theater.
