System takes on two-component gel
application
The Micro-Meter 2 is an air-operated positive-displacement single-acting two-component system, designed to meter, mix and dispense small 'shots', or beads, of reactive materials.
A leading contract electronics manufacturer in Glasgow, Scotland required a specialist machine to accurately dispense 1cm3 of a mixed two-part Shin-Etsu X-832-050 silicone dielectric gel onto a high-voltage circuit assembly The specialist gel had to be sourced from the USA via the Netherlands to meet the product's exacting specifications Integrated Dispensing Systems supplied its Micro-Meter 2 meter-mix-dispense system to match the customer's detailed equipment needs

The MicroMeter 2 is a complete system for metering, mixing and dispensing small shots or beads of two-component adhesives or sealants.
The Micro-Meter 2 is an air-operated positive-displacement single-acting two-component system, designed to meter, mix and dispense small 'shots', or beads, of reactive materials.
The Micro-Meter 2 features precision shot size and flow rate control, positive displacement meter, Teflon rod packings, integrated power inlet and outlet valves (to control the A/B fluid direction during reload and dispense) and a PLC logic control panel.
Each meter is configured to accommodate the ratio and shot size requirements of the client's application.
The Micro-Meter 2 uses No-Flush disposal static mix tubes and protective shrouds.
For very small dispense volumes, the mixer assembly can be fitted with a Luer-Lok adapter and needle.
Depending on the material's properties and the amounts used, the supply device could be a cartridge, pressure tank, or pump.
The fluid supply device is attached to the Micro-Meter's inlet ports and supplies the two material components to the Micro-Meter 2 under pressure.
The micrometer style shot size adjustment controls the amount of material that is metered and dispensed during a cycle.
This adjustment varies the stroke of the meter rods to control the volumetric output.
