Highly Abrasive Materials Reliably Applied in Very Small Quantities

Manfred BacherGeneral

eco-PENs that are already in operation can be upgraded in a very short time, thanks to the spare parts kits. Test result after 120 hours dispensing: The standard rotor on the right, with a hard chrome layer, shows signs of wear over time when used with highly abrasive materials, depending on the process. Detail view rotor wear: Standard rotor left … Read More

Potting of miniature connectors

Manfred BacherGeneral

High-precision dispensing for complete process reliability Miniature connectors must be absolutely reliable and have secure contacts. Two-component potting compounds such as PU, epoxy or silicone are particularly suitable for potting miniature connectors. They are especially impressive compounds due to their wide range of applications. Increasing miniaturisation of performance electronics and improved sensor technologies increase the demands on dispensing equipment, i.e., … Read More

„Diamond Coated Rotor“ for preeflow

Manfred BacherAllgemein

The "Diamond Coated Rotors" significantly extend the service life of the system when processing highly abrasive materials, especially in the small and even smaller quantity range.

A new standard in the micro dispensing of highly abrasive Materials within the 1-component and 2-component range Precise, repeatable, and process-safe applications in the field of micro dispensing have always been the emphasis of the preeflow by ViscoTec brand. Thanks to the volumetric endless piston principle, almost all low to high viscosity materials can be processed. Solids-laden fluids, or filled … Read More

Dispensing anaerobic adhesives

Manfred BacherAllgemein

Test setup

Long-term tests with preeflow dispensers using one-component adhesives The word anaerobic means “without air” and therefore describes one of the two curing mechanisms in the handling of one-component adhesives: Air exclusion. Combined with the second mechanism, namely contact with metal ions, a rapid polymerization of the material is achieved. Due to their easy handling and fast curing, anaerobic adhesives enjoy … Read More
