Now Available-Single Component Dosing with Unparalleled Accuracy

Nov. 13, 2009 - PRLog -- Fluid Research Corporation, the leading innovator and manufacturer of precision dispensing equipment, has introduced the new FlexiMeter™ single component dispensing system.

When accuracy is important, Fluid Research’s FlexiMeter is the only solution, utilizing a Progressing Cavity Pump and maintaining the strictest accuracy, repeatability, and dependability.

Other advantages of the new FlexiMeter are superior performance over all types of single component metering/dosing.  When accuracy, repeatability and dependability are key to your process, the FlexiMeter will outperform any other systems.

Employing a wide selection of positive displacement Progressing Cavity Pumps, these exceptionally reliable systems incorporate state of the art, patented controls to accurately dose your material.   Programming unique shot sizes and dispense rates is as easy as a few keystrokes.  You can dispense almost any type of material, with precise accuracy.    

The new FlexiMeter features a programmable run-back feature:  a pulse of the Progressing Cavity pump in the reverse direction after dosing virtually eliminates any dripping or leaking.  The FlexiMeter is designed to be either a standalone unit, or integrated into a larger system.  Using the Start, Stop, and 4 Bit Digital Interface, you can integrate the FlexiMeter into almost any application, from dispensing adhesives to zinc pastes.

"Over the years, we have come across several applications that went virtually unsolved," said Stephen Gordon, VP of Engineering for Fluid Research.  

“Normally, when a customer needs to dispense exacting amounts of a single component, using other methods to dispense would require constant calibration, even up to every other dispense shot.  With the new FlexiMeter, this drastically reduces the time and material spent calibrating the amount of material to be dispensed.

Calibrating is simple, just take a few calibration dispense shots, weigh, and input these numbers into our patented control system, and the controller does the rest.”

Fluid Research also recently introduced other new fluid dispensing equipment, acquired a new facility to triple their manufacturing floor space, acquired new management staff, and added a new material testing lab.  Fluid Research is dedicated to educating its customers to the benefits of automation.  From efficiency and consistency to health and safety, automation elevates these features to a level that cannot be obtained anywhere else.  

Fluid Research Corporation was founded in 1996 to provide superior accuracy in dispensing single and multiple component adhesives, sealants and polymers.  The company currently holds multiple U.S. foreign patents for its proprietary technology, which uses progressing cavity pumps and sophisticated electronic controls in an extensive line of metering and dispensing systems.  

Typically custom-engineered to user specifications, Fluid Research equipment can be found in a wide variety of industries, including automotive components, aerospace fabrication, electronics, solar energy systems, electrical power systems, polymer molding, chemical fastening, dome labeling, health and beauty, medical electronics, sporting goods, and filtration equipment.
