Dispenser takes care of two-component
adhesives
The Program-A-Bead 692 servo driven dispensing system is ideal for high-volume automated application of high-viscosity two-component structural adhesives.
The Program-A-Bead 692 servo driven dispensing system is ideal for high-volume automated application of high-viscosity two-component structural adhesives This stainless-steel system is engineered to apply the adhesive with precision as a continuous bead or as a stitch Powered by a servo drive that allows variable dispense rates, the 692 ensures precise flow rate control and consistent bead size, regardless of the profile of the bead path

The Servo-Flo 401 is engineered to dispense thixotropic and cohesive materials such as one-part silicones, epoxies, urethanes and heat or ambient cure materials
Program-A-Bead 692 derives its precision and control from its servo drive assembly and its positive displacement meter, which electronically controls the flow rate of the mixed material through all facets of the dispense process.
The x-y-z table or robot controller can 'order' the 692 to dispense at a flow rate that conforms to the bead path corners.
This control ensures that the bead dispensed will have the same profile throughout the bead path.
The control components interface with the robot or line controller using standard control protocol.
This sealant system easily interfaces with automation robot, an x-y-z table, or a fixture.
The 692's graphic display panel presents a broad range of information including diagnostics and operation; sensitive control areas are password protected.
Material temperature and total usage are also compiled by the system's MicroLogix controller.
Mounted on the end of the robotic system's arm, a Snuf-Bak - No-Flush dispense valve with disposable mixer/applicator nozzle assures thorough material mixing and eliminates the need for solvent flushing.
