PrecisionSwirl Overview
PrecisionSwirl Capabilities
The PrecisionSwirl orbital dispenser is regulated through the control assembly. The orbital dispenser is used to swirl sealant and adhesives in a variety of appli- cations.
In a basic robotic system, the control assembly serves as the interface between the robot controller and the orbital dispenser via an interface cable. Refer to Robot Interface Cable Assembly on page 52.
The orbital dispenser is operated either manually from the control assembly or automatically from a robot con- troller where the orbital dispenser is programmed to apply material continuously, or at interrupted intervals, or both. The orbital dispenser can be stopped, started, and regulated to suit the application, making high quality swirl patterns that hold form after the material is dis- pensed.
The orbital dispenser applies a continuous swirled bead of material directly on components in targeted areas, such as the hem flanges on car doors, the interior seams of the chassis, and on the fixed glass openings of autos.
Bead profile is
an accurate swirled bead of material on vertical and hor- FIG. 2 izontal planes.
The orbital dispenser is small enough to apply sealant and adhesives on any type of surface or material, and can be directed on any programmable path, including: a series of crevices, creases, or around a maze of straight lines, sharp angles, contours, curves, corners, and openings.
The material source for the orbital dispenser is com- monly supplied via a dual ram pump fluid supply system, which can be equipped with filters, temperature condi- tioning, and a fluid supply header.
