Dual cartridge dispensing machine designed for low volume mixing

Fisnar Europe has revealed its latest development, which takes the form of a bench mounted, dual cartridge dispensing machine.

Designated Model DCD, its economic design provides users with a cost-effective solution for low volume mixing and dispensing of two-part materials in dual cartridges. The fully portable bench-mounted system is simple to install and program for accurate two-part dispensing, the company states Each feature of the dispenser has apparently been meticulously designed for the optimal user-experience. It is mounted on a robust bench support, resulting in a system that can be pneumatically controlled and adjusted in height and angle for dispensing. A compact controller provides all the necessary air logic functions, and maintains control of air pressure to the dispenser. The machine includes a pneumatically actuated dual-cartridge piston dispenser, which applies pressure to accurately meter materials contained in a dual cartridge. The machine's static mixer finally combines the two materials, while the piston retraction control allows for easy loading and unloading of the cartridge. A pinch-valve is with each system for increased accuracy and drip-free dispensing of low-viscosity materials. The valve is fitted to the exit tip of the static mixer and operated by an air portal on the controller and a pneumatic foot pedal facilitates the hands-free operation. Fisnar Europe is subsidiary of Ellsworth Adhesives and claims to be a market leader in fluid dispensing and dispensing automation, manufacturing automated dispensers, valves, industrial robots, peristaltic pumps, metering and mixing systems for two-part fluids, hot melt systems, syringes and consumables including, needles, barrels and tips.
