"Next generation" adhesive dispensers give today's global manufacturers greater accuracy, better process control and international ease-of-use
Finding new ways to build products faster, better and more cost-effectively can be a powerful tool for manufacturers struggling to stay profitable in a global marketplace where consumers demand more features, higher quality, and lower prices. The new Ultra™ Dispensing Workstation from EFD Inc., East Providence, RI, provides an easily implemented way for these companies to improve their production processes, as well as their bottom lines.
The majority of assembly operations involve at least one adhesive, sealant, threadlocker or other fluid. While some companies still use squeeze bottles and toothpicks in simple low-volume processes, manual applicators are almost never a cost-effective option when hidden expenses like rework, rejects and fluid waste are factored in.
