CFD continuous flow mono-component dispenser
The CFD continuous flow volumetric dispenser for mono-component material uses continuous flow progressive cavity pump technology. The dispenser is highly versatile capable of dispensing low to high viscosity materials as well as filled materials.
The CFDs are available in several volume and flow rate sizes. The rotors, stators and pump housings include
a variety of materials to provide mechanical and chemical compatibility with a broad range of materials. Several motors, controls interfaces and mechanical connections such as Luer Lock, threaded and many more are also available.
Furthermore, and according to the needs, the CFD is delivered as individual component for integrated solutions, with mta standalone numerical controller or as turnkey solutions using one of our standard automated dispensing platforms including: MRC500, TR300, OEM, and station.
The main features of our CFD include:
- Automatic or manual dispensing of mono-component liquid or low-viscosity, high-viscosity and filled materials
- Volumetric continuous flow dispensing thanks to a rotating displacement system
- Simple setting of the dispensing parameters via numerical controller
- Broad flow range
- Various motor, pump and rotor/stator sizes
- Rotor available in hard chrome plated or DLC coated
- Different elastomers for stator
- Housing in stainless steel or PEEK
- Flow rate is directly proportional to drive speed
- Material pre-heating possible
Typical dispensing applications:
Adhesive bonding, potting and honeycomb potting, dot and line dispensing, conformal coating, glob-top dispensing, dripping and lubrication.
Typical dispensing materials:
Sealants (e.g. silicone, MS-polymer, polyurethane, methylmethacrylat), adhesive (e.g. anaerobic glue, epoxy resin, UV-Acrylat, dispersion glue), gap fillers, thermal conductive paste, solvent-based medium, grease and oil.
7 reasons to choose the mta CFD continuous flow volumetric dispenser

TR300 dispensing table-top robot
Learn more Read moreThe PC controlled mta TR300 table-top robot is a standard automatic dispensing machine with a working area of 300×300 mm. It is used for semi-automated volumetric dispensing operations.
The increasing demands from customers in terms of quality, precision and repeatibility lead to increasing levels of automation. However, when production batches are small or products widely dissimilar, the cost of sophisticated equipment can place automation beyond the reach of many would-be users. Therefore, the TR300 combines flexibility with the required high levels of process quality and repeatability, all at reasonable cost.
The TR300 can be equipped with all the established mta dispensing heads: NVD mono-component dispenser, NBD two-components dispenser, mini-NVD mono-component dispenser, mini-NBD two-components dispenser, CFD continuous flow mono-component dispenser, CBD continuous flow two-components dispenser, CD cartridge mono-component dispenser and jet dispenser.
The 3 axes of the TR300 are fully programmable through the mta MotionEditor software including dispensing parameters such as:
- Volume to be dispensed, dispensing speed, mixing ratio as well as other related dispensing parameters e.g. unlimited quantity of points, linear or circular beads.
3 reasons to choose the mta TR300 dispensing table-top robot
- The TR300 is purpose-built and is user friendly. There was no compromise on the dispensing head design to fall within the lower payload of off-the-shelf table-top robots.
- Intuitive menu-driven mta MotionEditor software.
Each machine is specifically tailored to the customer’s application, but the standard TR300 dispensing table-top comes well-equipped:
- 3 axis cartesian robot
- Complete dispensing head
- Needle cleaning unit
- Purge bin
- Safety guarding and light curtain (on semi-automated systems)
- Air preparation system
- Industrial PC
- Full-size keyboard and screen
Options:
- Specific fixture
- Monitoring camera
- Robot recentering camera
- Needle recentering system
- Vision quality control
- Second screen
- ESD protection kit
- Part presence sensor
- Part height measuring sensor
- Automated sponge humidification system
- Container with or without mixer
- Cartridge with holder depending on the head
- Level detection – tank or cartridge
- Complete handling of material processing system e.g. recirculation, material pre-heating, etc.
- Signal tower
