We Know How Your Future-Proof Metering and Dispensing Solution Works

The megatrends of today are manifold, from increasing personalisation, electromobility, Industry 4.0,
and the Internet of Things (IoT), they include fast-paced markets and growing competition. All in all,
the challenges that enterprises are facing to ensure they remain competitive and fit for the future
are becoming more demanding rather than less. For many industries efficient filling, potting and glu-
ing turns out to be a crucial factor for profitable and economically efficient production, still gaining
importance. What makes these processing steps efficient are adaptable, flexible systems delivering
sustained high levels of quality and process reliability. The efficiency needed to achieve this must start
with selecting the right dispensing medium and go all the way through to employing the most suited
processing technologies applied in flexible production processes and include even the best service and
support – on a global scale.

Since 1990, we have been successfully building your solutions, making your production challenges our
task. Consequently, the portfolio of our solutions grows with each year, and we never grow tired of
setting new standards. Take our creativity, our passion and our visions and turn them into your success.

Efficient metering and dispensing –

Efficient potting, filling and gluing are key to ensuring the functionality of electronic products. It is
essential to consider process engineering technology in its entirety, because dispensing quality not

the casting resin properties, storage conditions, the design and shape of the substrate, and the curing

are perfectly dimensioned with regards to the required volume and mixing ratio. An added benefit for
even higher process reliability is the fact that metering accuracy does not depend on temperature,
pressure or viscosity of the casting resin. When 2C materials are used, the mixing ratio is kept constant
by discharging both cylinders absolutely simultaneously into the mixing tube. As a result, reaction
time, or pot life, starts at this very moment. The two components are mixed inside of the static mixing
tube until they are absolutely homogeneous. The seal and the cylinder inside walls are cleaned with a
rinsing liquid each time the piston strikes, which removes aggressive product residues. This effectively
minimises soiling and wear and tear of machine parts. At the same time, the adverse effects of

Inlet Pressure
The Dos GP systems are the first choice for applications requiring 1C, highly viscous, but non-abrasive
and unfilled dispensing materials. As a result, these systems are the best for applying continuous
beads. Their gear pumps operate on the principle of rotating volumetric displacement. The geometry
of the gear and the number of cogs determine the metering output. The rotating speed precisely
controls the metering output. This renders the dispensing process absolutely continuous and constant.
These systems work fast and accurately – even on complex geometries of the workpiece component.

directly programmed on the unit and stored there as well. The control unit communicates with the

processes, all metering and dispensing tasks are perfectly reproducible. If there are more complex

Tests in our Testing and Application Center
will answer your questions about the ideal medium,
the perfect method, and the most efficient
technology for your metering and
dispensing task.

Our
Testing and Application
Center ensures
ultimate process reliability
Dispensing projects are hardly ever standard cases. Economic efficiency and process reliability
can often only be achieved through trial and error. This is why we have our application center at
Scheugenpflug. Here you can leverage our expert know-how and combine it with professional equip-
ment. Get a live experience of how efficiently we find solutions to real-life challenges. You can test
several dispensing materials and workpieces to optimise your production process. There are 350 m2
of cutting-edge machinery available for you to use in your tests, including equipment for pre- and
post-treatment (plasma pre-treatment units, UV curing equipment, pre-heating and curing ovens,
and many more). We find the answers to all dispensing material questions within our vast network
of dispensing material manufacturers see page 105 and give you the opportunity to test and try out
innovative dispensing media.

Our Services:

• Professional testing including test


evaluations and test documentation
• Setting up dispensing programs for your
sample workpieces/prototypes
• Conceptualisation of your ideal
dispensing process
• Conditions resembling volume production
• Equipment for: Plasma pre-treatment,
UV curing, pre-heating and curing ovens

Equipment Rental
and Leasing – do not tie up
Your Capital
Fluctuating numbers of pieces in the production of electronics components are a frequent issue.
Sometimes, additional production capacities are needed on short notice, but it is hard to tell for
how long. For smaller batch sizes, it may not be economical at all to invest in separate or additional
metering and dispensing equipment. In this respect, financing models, such as leasing or renting of
equipment, offer new perspectives, because they help you to remain flexible with regards to your
production volumes without tying up capital. Renting equipment is an ideal stopgap solution until a
permanent solution can be found. By leasing equipment, it is possible to use leading-edge production
line technology without too much tied-up capital.

Our Services:

• Interesting rental options with flexible rental


periods from 6 months and acquisition option
at the end

• Attractive leasing options in collaboration


with renowned leasing experts, leasing terms
to suit your needs and buyout options

Production outsourcing to dispensing
technology experts –
external subcontracting of small batches or limited-lot
production is ideal to keep costs at a minimum.

Subcontracting –
high quality, quickly available
The reasons to consider subcontracting of small batches are manifold, especially if metering and dis-
pensing does not count among your core competences and if you produce small batches with strong
variations, either in quantity or composition. Maybe your company strategy does not allow outside
financing or equipment leasing. Nevertheless, if you need a flexible stopgap solution for production
bottlenecks or if it is impossible to interrupt your volume production for an urgent small batch, sub-
contracting Scheugenpflug is always an interesting alternative. In this case, we can take care of all
upstream and downstream process steps related to metering and dispensing and customise them to
suit your requirements.

Our Services:

• We pot, fill, and encapsulate your products using the best and most advanced metering
and dispensing equipment – with ultimate quality and economic efficiency

• We integrate – if necessary – plasma pre-treatment, pre-heating, UV curing,


heat curing, and much more, into the dispensing process

• We use the most advanced metering and dispensing technology and testing equipment
to ensure ultimate quality, which we record and document according to your requirements

• We take care that the produced workpieces arrive safely at your specified destination

• Operating personnel can be provided by us or from among your own staff

• We offer subcontracting for different types of projects and requirements,


e.g. for production of limited-lots or small batches, as a stopgap solution until your
own plant is ready, or in the event of an unexpected critical production standstill
