1K metering and mixing machines are used for the processing of one component (or one-part) material. This could be greases and sealants or pastes and adhesives such as polyurethane, epoxy or silicone.  Pressure-time dispensing
The easiest and most cost-effective dispensing method Valve opens for a certain period of time and material is dispensed under pressure (pressure and flow rate remain constant) Low safety and repeatability Suitable for manual metering of adhesives or automatic metering with low quality requirements
Volumetric dispensing
Most popular metering option Metering with regard to the volumetric quantity Two possibilities: time-dependent: exactly defined volume is applied at a specific location time-independent: volume has is metered over a specific period of time and a defined distance or area Automatic dispensing Suitable for applications with high requirements on safety and reproducibility
