September 15, 2016 - Nordson ASYMTEK, a Nordson company, introduces Dual-Simultaneous Programmable Pitch on its Select Coat SL-940 Conformal Coating System. With Dual-Simultaneous Programmable Pitch, two of the same conformal coating applicators are installed and operated simultaneously, coating two parts at the same time. Nordson ASYMTEK's motorized system automatically repositions the applicators to match the programmed pitch.
Using Dual-Simultaneous Programmable Pitch reduces actual conformal coating process time by 50%, especially for high takt time conformal coating processes or when multi-up panelized or patterned parts with consistent spacing are used. This benefits automated high-mix production environments.
The pitch, or distance between applicators, is programmed and will adjust automatically. Unlike a manual bracket where the operator must reposition the applicator pitch at each changeover, programmable pitch eliminates operator dependency in adjusting the pitch for a specific part.
Dual-Simultaneous Programmable Pitch supports the full range of Nordson ASYMTEK conformal coating applicators, meeting current and future needs for conformal coating by simply being able to swap applicators. Applicators can also be installed with tilt and rotate options to maintain the unique agility of conformally coating complex PCB layouts.
