Dispense Valves
About Dispense Valves
Dispense valves are highly specialized components designed to control the release and flow of liquids or viscous fluids in various industrial applications. These valves are essential in ensuring the accurate and precise delivery of fluids, which is crucial for maintaining product quality, consistency, and efficiency in manufacturing processes.
There are several types of dispense valves, each suited for different fluids and applications. For instance, some valves are designed to handle thin liquids, like water or solvents, while others are built to manage thick, viscous substances such as adhesives, sealants, oils, and pastes. The choice of valve depends on the fluid’s characteristics (viscosity, temperature, and chemical composition), as well as the level of control required for the dispensing process.
In industries such as automotive, electronics, medical devices, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals, dispense valves are commonly used for tasks such as filling, coating, potting, gasketing, or lubricating. For example, in the electronics industry, dispense valvesare crucial for applying precise amounts of solder paste or adhesives onto circuit boards during assembly. Similarly, in the food industry, they can control the dispensing of sauces, creams, or other semi-liquid products with great accuracy
