Dispensing systems are used in almost every industry and range from table top versions to automated turnkey solution lines with multiple operations. These systems are configured based on the resin material used (such as silicone, foam, epoxy, adhesives or polyurethane), the flow rate and shot size. The use of automated gasketing technologies has increased significantly over the past decade where a wide range of industries are switching over from manually applied foam tape gaskets to automated gasket dispensing systems. What is automated gasketing? It is a system that automatically dispenses material on a component in a precise pattern and specific amount. Some of the materials that can be dispensed include single-and two-component polyurethanes and silicones, thermoplastics, butyls, platisols, and other standard materials. Some of the major industries to use gasket dispensing systems include appliance, automotive, electronics, and electrical industries. One of the major benefits is the significant reduction in material waste, labor and inventory costs. The multiple benefits of automated gasketing High-precision automated dispensing systems help to eliminate errors, waste and constant modifications that are normally associated with the manual application of gaskets. This allows for better quality control. Another benefit is a reduction in material costs and inventory. An automated gasket dispensing system eliminates the need for boxes of single-purpose die cut or roll gaskets. The materials used are versatile and take up less space. In addition, a single system can be used for multiple products and parts with the integration of a robot and dispense system that is easily programmable. Take advantage of superior design for assembly and manufacturing Automated gasket dispensing systems can enhance the efficiency of your assembly line by allowing the application of DFA or design for assembly and DFM or design for manufacturing methods. Gaskets can be integrated into the design right from the beginning and made to meet the requirements of you or your customer. Dispensing systems allow you to respond to market conditions quickly, giving you a competitive edge when it comes to developing new products.
