Micro-Meter 2 Servo is a positive-displacement, two-component meter-mix dispensing system designed to apply small precision beads and small metered shots of precisely mixed resins. Servo-motor design provides consistent, repeatable bead profiles and variable-flow-rate metered shot volumes. Said to improve production rates and product quality, and reduce manufacturing costs.
Provides a variety of preset material-dispensing profiles and dispense results. Can dispense precisely mixed materials for different part configurations. It can be preset to vary the flow rate during dispensing—to change the bead profile in gasketing or fill rate in potting applications—in automated, indexing, xyz-motion and robotic processes. The control will also accept commands from the automation.
Snuf-Bak or No-Drip dispense valve is provided with seals matched to each dispense fluid and designed for long life in high-cycle dispensing applications. Dispense valve may be remote mounted. Disposable No-Flush mixers mix and dispense virtually all two-component materials including epoxies, polyurethanes and silicones.Sealant Equipment & Engineering Inc., www.SealantEquipment.com
Integrated Reliability Test Systems (IRTS) Inc. announced that Rockwell Collins has purchased a Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock (HATS) System.
The system, scheduled to be installed in September, will service Rockwell Collins' in-house thermal shock testing requirements. Two HATS systems were previously installed at Intel Corp. and the Hong Kong Productivity Council last year.
The system, which has been in use by the IPC PCQR2 Database for reliability testing of via daisy-chain structures since October 2003, offers:
Built on existing air-to-air thermal shock standards (IPC-TM-650, Method 2.6.7.2B)
Reduced operating cost over dual chamber systems
Reduced cycle times by 50 to 70%
36-coupon capacity with 4 nets per coupon
Temperature cycles ranging from -60 to +160°C
20 4-wire precision resistance readings per second
