We are hiring! We have updated our Jobs @ INTERTRONICS page with some new vacancies. We are looking for a Marketing Executive and a part-time Bookkeeper. Would you like to come and work with us?
The preeflow® family gets a new big brother, through the development of the new eco-PEN 700 3D from ViscoTec. The brand new geometry between rotor and stator generates a three times bigger output without any velocity loss in dispensing. The eco-PEN 700 3D reaches a volume flow of up to 60 ml/min – this means the eco-PEN range covers the entire array of micro dispensing starting from 1 µl, whilst still retaining the well known features like repeatability > 99 % and the reproducible accuracy ± 1%. preeflow® stands for easy, exact and accurate dispensing.
We have updated our product, the Micro-Dot, to include a lever-action model. This is a great little tool for precision dispensing from syringe barrels.
With low cost robotics playing a significant part in cost-reduced/quality-upgraded small scale production, the new Fisnar Unitop F5200N will interest production engineers in all industries, especially as it has the ability to be used as a gantry, as well as a benchtop robot.
The F5200N is a compact dispensing robot with all moving axes above the work piece. It is ideal for form-in-place gaskets, adhesives, potting, coating and filling. The Unitop™ design makes it suitable for any platform requiring a gantry type mounting providing open access under the robot, conveyor fed automation or installation in work cells operating as a slave robot.
We recently introduced the preeflow® eco-PEN 450 from ViscoTec, which not only offers a greater capacity for high accuracy and highly repeatable volumetric dispensing – it also addresses the needs of a wide range of low to medium viscosity applications. These include oils and fats, colour mixes, silicones, sealing compounds, adhesives and even abrasive media, which can be easily handled by the innovative precision rotor-stator mechanism which we call an “endless piston”.
The eco-PEN 450 deals easily with dots and beads as small as 0.004 ml at up to 6 ml per minute, featuring viscosity autonomous application at pressures from 16 to 20 bar via luer lock dispensing nozzles or needles. Easy fitment to robotic or semi-automatic systems is facilitated by preeflow® EC200 controllers which are available in bench top or panel-mount format. The units are microprocessor controlled and simple to operate, without submenu, and with graphic support. External signals can be connected via I/O ports to a PLC for control in automated lines. A wide variety of dosing programs with part-management are storable. Error messages for filling level and motor current may also be monitored via an RS232 interface. Alternatively, for robotic and automated installations the preeflow® “plug-n-dose” Speed Control readily enables time/pressure control by external computer system.
The eco-PEN 450 is applicable to self-levelling low viscosity media and to non-self-levelling fluids with pressure feed.
Thank you for working with us in 2011.
We wish you a Delightful Christmas, and a Peaceful and Prosperous New Year.
This year we are not sending out printed Christmas cards. Instead, we have donated to Action for Children Parklands Campus, a new special school that opened in September 2011 which provides flexible education and care for young people and their families through day, residential, fostering and outreach services. If you would also like to make a donation please visit their website.
