The Elite Dispenser is combining flexibility with high speed and accuracy. This is opening doors when large production volumes are required. The Elite Dispenser is designed to be fast in the first place, without ignoring the need for flexibility. The Elite Dispenser provides both flexibility and speed by being able to mount up to three valves. Many different dispense applications can be handled with the Elite. In case of Dam & Fill at least two valves are needed. One for the high viscosity dam material and the second for the lower viscosity fill material. In case of a Glob-Top, only one dispenser is required. With a maximum speed of 1000 mm per second and an overall accuracy of 50 microns at 3 sigma, the machine is also ideal for high speed and high accuracy applications like dispensing dots of solder paste or SMD adhesives. This performance is made possible by utilizing linear encoders for all movements within the machine.
A camera is part of the standard package, as well as the unique off-line programming software. You can work with component, package and fiducial libraries and DIMA also created a dispensing library to store all available information about different materials, dispense valves and all necessary parameters needed for a repeatable production.The standard package even includes the ESI fiducial alignment software making the Elite Dispenser into an ideal dispensing platform for various different applications. The Elite can be equipped with all DIMA dispense valves whether they are pneumatic, electrical driven, piezo-actuated valves or progressive cavity pumps (PCP). The Elite can even be equipped with a Pick & Place tool. A standard feature within the Elite is that all air pressures used in the Elite (main air pressure and tank pressure) are being monitored in order to control the process and with that guarantee the process repeatability. The Elite is modular build, so options can be added to the machine at a later date.

The Elite Dispenser is configured with a camera, computer with DIMAsoft user software, a base for up to 3 dispense valves, one electronic pressure sensor for the main air supply and one sensor and regulator for material pressure. The Elite platform comes as a batch machine but can be upgraded to an in-line machine. Together with the unbeatable Easy track® offline programming software and the DIMAsoft User interface Nordson DIMA has created the ultimate dispensing machine.
Available options for the Elite Dispenser are a.o.: multiple heads, pin chain conveyor, automatic XYZ nozzle calibration, flow monitoring, dynamic flow adjustment, touchless valve cleaning, laser height detection, reservoir empty detection, and barcode and track & trace software. Even a Pick & Place tool can be integrated.
