Nordson Electronics Solutions developed the patent-pending software, Automated Ratio Calibration Technology (ARC™ Technology), to enable easier set-up and sustained mix ratios for dispensing two-component (2K) fluid materials. ARC Technology is part of a system, which includes ASYMTEK Vortik® progressive cavity pumps and ASYMTEK dispensing platforms, that ensures consistently accurate mix ratios by volume or weight to improve overall dispense quality. The award was announced by Global SMT & Packaging magazine during a virtual ceremony held September 29, 2020.\nThis press release features multimedia.

(Photo: Business Wire)\nElectronics manufacturers recognize that today’s 2K fluids offer lower cost of ownership and greater process flexibility. However, it can be complicated to set up an application to accurately dispense the correct ratio of part A and part B materials, requiring manual calculations and time-consuming test iterations. ASYMTEK ARC™ Technology was developed as a feature in Fluidmove® software to simplify 2K setup and to control metering and mix ratios during dispensing operations.\n\n“ARC Technology for our Vortik 2K pumps takes the manual process and human error out of the equation during 2K fluid dispensing to ensure you have an accurate mix ratio,” explained Sonia Aldridge, product manager, ASYMTEK Products. “We developed ARC by focusing on our customers to make it easier for them to deliver better results. We are happy to win this award.”\n\nTo complete a 2K application setup using ARC software, operators enter basic information including:\n\n\nthe mix ratio method (mass or volume)\n\n\nmix ratio\n\n\nfluid density\n\n\nfluid working life\n\n\ndesired ...
