Dispensing robot designed for flexibility

1 min read

Fisnar Europe has launched multi-tasking robot model F9960N which has been designed for safe and secure dispensing applications ranging from miniature SMT circuit boards to larger PCBs and finished assemblies.

Users of the new robot will benefit from a great flexibility thanks to its multi-tasking capabilities. The system is claimed to be ideal for precision form-in-place gaskets, encapsulation, coating, EMI and thermal-grease applications as well as under fill and sealing projects. The F9960N is the first Fisnar gantry robot to be mounted within an enclosed free-standing platform, the company says. The enclosed environment provides access for fume extraction systems, safeguarding the work force and work place from potentially hazardous substances. Access to the working area is provided by an operator fail-safe, high clearance, security door, which is locked while in operation but easily accessible during programming. The system can be integrated within a conveyor dependent in-line manufacturing environment or installed as a stand-alone module for independent working. The F9960N is easy to use - programming a dispense path with unique characteristics, including continuous path and point-to-point routing, is quickly achieved using the interactive 178mm touch-screen display supplied with the system. Other features include software nozzle/tip change alignment routine for quick and automatic program change offsets and step-and-repeat functions for quick programming of multiple and identical objects.
