Nordson EFD Offers New Jet Dispensing Technology

The PICO Pµlse non-contact jet valve and PICO Toµch controller with intuitive touch screen interface offer greater dispensing capabilities for superior process control.

Nordson EFD, a Nordson company is the precision fluid dispensing systems manufacturer offering innovative piezoelectric jetting technology that removes the barrier between speed and accuracy. EFD’s new PICO® Pµlse™ valve and PICO Toµch™ controller make it possible to dispense very exact, repeatable micro-deposits as small as 0.5 nL at up to 500Hz continuous, with 1500Hz maximum bursts.

The PICO Pµlse non-contact jet valve’s modular design makes it possible to jet low- to high-viscosity fluids onto any surface, including uneven and tough-to-reach substrates. Its tool-free latch mechanism allows easy removal of the fluid body for faster serviceability and maintenance – reducing downtime and increasing productivity. Variable stroke, improved close time, and faster full stroke open time makes Pµlse one of the robust jet dispensing valves.

The PICO Toµch controller features an easy-to-use intuitive touch screen interface for precise control of the PICO Pµlse valve. Pulse time can be adjusted in increments as small as 0.01 ms. Better slope control delivers more repeatable deposits while preventing turbulence and air bubbles from entering the fluid.
