New Zephyr Meter, Mix, and Dispensing System from Fluid Research Eliminates Hand Mixing

Nov. 16, 2009 - PRLog -- Fluid Research Corporation, the leading innovator and manufacturer of precision dispensing equipment, has introduced the new Zephyr™ dual component Meter, Mix, and Dispense System.

Fluid Research® Corporation’s economical Zephyr™ is built to exacting specifications, eliminating the need for mixing manually. Converting meter-mixing from manual mixing to Zephyr will yield consistent dispensing results every time, eliminating the need for cleanup, while reducing labor dramatically.

The new Zephyr employs DirecDial knob control system for simple adjustment of the rate, ratio, and dispense time by the turn of a knob!  All Fluid Research’s dispensing equipment features Fluid Research's Stat-a-Seal™ Dispense Head to virtually eliminate material leaking and curing in the head.  Featuring no dynamic seals, the Stat-a-Seal features our patented non-sliding metal bellows to ensure reliable operation, every time.

Upgrading Zephyr with progressing cavity pumps to meter your viscous or filled material or the standard gear pumps to dispense your unfilled low viscosity material makes it the ideal solution  for accurate shots or continuous material flow.

The Zephyr reduces waste product, eliminating the need to mix large batches and race against the clock before it cures. With Zephyr solution, dial in the mixing ratio and use as much as needed.

"Converting from manual meter, mix, and dispensing with the Zephyr is both simple and economically savvy," said Stephen Gordon, VP of Engineering for Fluid Research.  

“Customers typically experience the return on their investment much more quickly than anticipated,  [eliminating] waste product, man-power and reducing exposure of employees to hazardous materials.”

Fluid Research also recently introduced other new 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.
