The ability to efficiently and accurately dispense adhesives, sealants, and other materials is absolutely vital in assembly operations. Companies that rely on manual methods run into issues with operator error, slow speeds, excessive waste, and other problems. High-speed, high-performance automated dispensing equipment can drastically improve production speed and precision, but they also bring their own set of challenges.
What do you think are the most prevalent challenges experienced by manufacturing companies in their dispensing operations? Any guesses? To find the answer, Nordson EFD partnered with Clear Seas Research, undertaking multiple in-depth studies over five years. Claude Bergeron, Nordson EFD product line manager, shares the compiled results—as well as solutions to these common problems—in this issue.
