This allows us to apply long sealing or adhesive beads in a highly precise contour.&nbsp; <br> <br> The basic principle is based on a helical rotor that rotates on an eccentric axis inside an elastic stator. This movement creates accurately sized cavities that are continuously conveyed downward by the rotation. The dosing volume is determined by geometry of the stator and rotor. Likewise, the feed rate is determined by the rotational speed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"342\" src=\"https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/11\/Unitechnologies_mta_continuous_flow_dispensing-500x342.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/11\/Unitechnologies_mta_continuous_flow_dispensing-500x342.jpg 500w, https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/11\/Unitechnologies_mta_continuous_flow_dispensing-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/11\/Unitechnologies_mta_continuous_flow_dispensing-350x239.jpg 350w, https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/11\/Unitechnologies_mta_continuous_flow_dispensing.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The rotor and stator are available in a range of materials, so we are able to find combinations suitable for a variety of applications. For example, pharmaceutical and medical industries often require inert materials in the dispensing systems.<br> <br>After leaving the continuous pump, the material can either proceed directly to a dispensing needle or to a mixing chamber. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mixing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When applications require two-component materials, mta uses separate pumps for the resin and hardener component before mixing. This applies to the piston and continuous pumping technologies. Since we use individual pumps for each material, we are able to precisely control the mixing ratio with high repeatability.<br> <br>After the pumps meter the material, each the resin and hardener move separately into a dynamic <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/mtaold.unitechnologies.ch\/us\/product\/mixing-chambers\/\" target=\"_blank\">mixing chamber<\/a>. A rotating mixing blade mixes the material inside the chamber. A numerically controlled actuator controls the speed and rotation. This allows the mixing to provide the correct number of folds without damaging the material. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dynamically mixing the material provides two significant advantages over static mixing tubes. First, we are able to size the mixing chamber according to the shot size \u2013 not the number of folds. Hence, the chamber can be much smaller than static mixing tubes. Second, the reaction does not begin until the material is ready to be dosed maximizing the pot life. As a result, there very little residual material reacting between doses and the pot life is maximized. This means mta\u2019s systems are able to dose much smaller volumes of material than are possible with static mixing tubes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High precision volumetric dispensing mta uses volumetric dispensing systems for liquid and high-viscosity materials with mono- or two-components in a variety of dispensing processes, including potting, gluing, and conformal coating.
