Overview
Congratulations on your choice of the Axiom X-1000 Series Dispensing System! This Quick Operations
Manual is intended primarily as a reference for production operators. However, process engineers, service
technicians, and others unfamiliar with Asymtek products may also find this manual useful as a general
introduction to the system. Refer to the Axiom X-1000 Series Operations Manual or the Axiom X-1000 Series
Installation and Service Manual for detailed information.
The Axiom X-1000 Series Dispensing System is designed to solve the diverse fluid dispensing needs of the
electronics industry. This dispensing system provides a modular approach to hardware, software, and factory
integration. Advanced platform architecture provides precision control for calibrated fluid delivery, closed-
loop thermal management with multi-zone substrate heating, an integrated vision system for fiducial
detection, chip corner detection, and flexible material handling capabilities. Fluidmove for Windows NT
(FmNT), an advanced user-friendly software interface, controls the entire system. This software control
ensures consistent high-level system performance.
System Status
The X-1000 Series Dispensing System is completely installed and tested on-site by Asymtek-trained
personnel. Only Asymtek-trained personnel should move or reinstall the dispensing system. This ensures
that your dispensing system will be ready to provide you with accurate, dependable dispensing.
Safety First
Operation of your X-1000 Series Dispensing System involves heat, air pressure, electrical power,
mechanical devices, and the use of hazardous materials. It is essential that every person servicing or
operating the dispensing system fully understands all hazards, risks, and safety precautions. When properly
operated and maintained, the dispensing system should be safe and reliable. Thoroughly review the Safety
section of this manual prior to operating your dispensing system.
WARNING! CAUTION!
Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for all fluids used with the
dispensing system. The MSDS provides material usage instructions, disposal
instructions, and safety precautions.

certification for all operators, technicians, and engineers using, programming, and servicing the dispensing
system.
Asymtek offers several levels of training courses to enable customer operators, technicians, and engineers
