A few things to
remember:
-
When using a pneumatic
dispenser (air driven) you can change
dot size by applying
different air pressure, time settings and tip sizes.
-
Increasing either the air pressure, time duration
or tip size will increase the dot size, while decreasing either the air pressure, time
duration or tip size will decrease the dot size.
-
Thicker, more viscous liquids, such as pastes
or greases, will require either more pressure, a longer time
setting or a larger size tip.
-
Thinner, less viscous liquids, such as
Cyanoacrylates or thinners, will require less pressure, shorter time or a
smaller tip size. Higher pressure and/or short time cycle
increases the dispensing speed and provides a higher output.
