Drip Proof Liquid Dispensing

Many of today's manufacturing applications require drip proof liquid dispensing. This may be for a variety of reasons. The liquid may be caustic to certain materials and ruin a unit if it contacts anything except for the prescribed area, it may be hazardous to workers or it may just be extremely expensive. No matter what the reason, a small volume liquid dispenser from OK International is often the solution. These precision automated fluid dispensation units are available in basic and digital models. When combined with the proper pneumatic controller your production employees will have all of the tools they need for efficient, drip free application.

For efficient drip proof liquid dispensing you need two things: a precision dispenser and precise air control. Often the dispenser is the focus, but it will only be as good as its controller. It is important that it be the correct size for the task. A small volume liquid dispenser should be selected that is able to hand the pressure necessary for the liquid's viscosity. It should also have an applicator that allows for precise placement of the liquid.

A pneumatic controller is necessary to eject consistent amounts of the liquid being used. There are two basic control mechanisms available. Many groups prefer a foot pedal style control. Others use a fingertip control that mounts on the end of the dispensing unit. Both units have their advantages. Many feel that finger units allow for great control while others argue that using the foot to control the dispensing process keeps the hand steadier.
