Our systems have also been used with commercially available robotic systems - Adept fully articulated arm. Conclusion FRC has brought to the industry a new standard in plural component dispense technology. Through the use of PC pumps and custom control hardware, we are able to guarantee repeatable, low maintenance material delivery. Our custom software allows the user to select and modify the shot size, time, and ratio all from a keypad no mechanical changes are needed. All Fluid Research dispensing systems are designed to deliver accurate, repeatable shots from 1.00cc up.
Piston pump dispensing machines have been around for quite some time.
The timing of the valve operation, along with the amount of wear, can also result in what are referred to as phasing errors. This leads to troubles maintaining ratio during a shot, as well as delivering a precise quantity. The very nature of FRC's progressive cavity pump design dictates that the amount of material delivered is proportional to the number of rotations of the pump. This makes it possible for Fluid Research machines to dispense virtually any amount of material over its usable range of flow rates. This allows for precise selection of the amount and shot time of the material to be dispensed.
