Standard Equipment
Computer System
The Computer system consists of the Computer, Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse. It runs Fluidmove for
Windows NT (FmNT) software.
Fluidmove for Windows NT Software
Fluidmove for Windows NT (FmNT) is Asymtek proprietary software for use in a Windows NT
environment, developed specifically for dispensing applications.
Tooling Plate
The Tooling Plate is mounted to the Y-axis and secures the workpiece for batch system operations. The
Tooling plate allows you to add specific fixturing or mounting hardware for your workpiece.
Digital Gauges
The DispenseMate features digital valve and fluid pressure gauges for high accuracy and easy setup. They
regulate the air pressure required for the dispensing valves, fluid reservoir, and dispensing options.
Integral Height Sensor
The Integral Height Sensor allows increased positional accuracy in fluid dispensing by automatically
controlling the gap of the dispense tip to the surface of your workpiece.
Optional Equipment
Automatic Pattern Recognition (Vision) System
The Vision System consists of a camera, lens, and light source. It uses fiducial patterns, corner or edge
detection algorithms, skew correction, and part skipping to locate dispensing sites. Two types of Vision
Systems are available, a manual system that relies on the position of the Z-head for focus and a Fixed
Height Pattern Recognition System that is independent of Z-height.
CAD Import
The dispensing system features data-driven, offline programming with the CAD Import program using
CAD-generated data
Flat Panel Touch Screen Monitor
The Flat Panel Touch Screen Monitor simplifies user interface.
Heater Relay Module
The Heater Relay module provides needle heat for materials where heating the needle may improve the
dispense quality.
Service Station
The Service Station automatically controls two dispensing routines that affect the final quality of the fluid
delivery. It consists of a Vacuum Purge Cup, which helps maintain a clean dispense tip (primarily for the
DispenseJet), and a Tactile Needle Sensor, which aids in accurately determining needle/nozzle tip height
during setup.
Enclosure
The Enclosure provides a complete enclosure of the DispenseMate 550, thus preventing inadvertent or
hazardous contact to a moving mechanism by an operator or technician.
