High viscosity adhesives dispensed efficiently
Designed to process high-viscosity materials, the SeeFlo 494 is ideally suited for dispensing structural adhesives widely used throughout manufacturing for structural bonding.
Easy potting improves automotive electrics
This potting operation is smooth and predictable, allowing a single operator to produce four 80-pin power train connectors every 20 seconds.
The exact amount to be dispensed and the rate of dispense are both easy to adjust.
The Shot-A-Matic comes complete with a remote or close-mounted dispense valve which ensures precise, drip-free material cut-off at the end of each shot - no more drooling !! Dispense valves are available in various designs, including those with the Snuf-Bak feature for paste or materials with stringy consistency.
Alternatively, a No-Drip valve for lower viscosity materials.
All valves include an NPTF outlet that accepts a wide variety of nozzle configurations.
Shot-A-Matic systems are designed for material viscosities from 1 to more than 1,000,000 centipoise.
The Shot-A-Matic is available in two formats to suit the type of material being dispensed.
For non-abrasive and catalysed two-component materials, the Shot-A-Matic I is recommended, where Teflon V-Packed seals are used throughout - these systems can be solvent flushed !! For abrasive materials, we recommend the Shot-A-Matic II which utilises special PolyPac seals, which can withstand the high wear associated with filled materials.
For multiple shot applications, for example, plate locking on multi-cell batteries, the Shot-A-Matic can be configured with multiple dispense heads to accurately dispense rapid multiple shots of material using a single metering cylinder.
Alternatively with multiple metering cylinders controlled by a single PLC, multiple shots of material can be made at the same time, for instance in potting electrical components on a production line.
