Nordson EFD Wins EM Asia Innovation Award for 781Mini Spray Valve
With a unique Quick Release clasp, smaller form factor, and the ability to apply exceptionally uniform spray patterns as narrow as 1 mm wide, the 781Mini demonstrates innovation in the electronics industry.
East Providence, RI USA – May 4, 2017 – Nordson EFD, a Nordson company (NASDAQ: NDSN), the world’s leading precision fluid dispensing systems manufacturer, won the EM Asia Innovation Award for its 781Mini™ spray valve at a ceremony held Thursday, April 27 at the Shanghai World Expo Convention & Exhibition Center during Nepcon China 2017.
Now in its 12th year, the EM Asia Innovation Awards recognize and celebrate excellence within the Asian electronics industry, inspiring companies to achieve higher standards and drive the industry forward. Nordson EFD won this same award last year for its PICO® Pµlse™ jetting system.
“We are honored to have won this prestigious award for the innovative 781Mini spray valve that we launched just last year,” said Claude Bergeron, Nordson EFD Product Line Manager – Valves. “We designed the 781Mini to direct nozzle air pressure more consistently for a more precise, narrower spray pattern than previously possible. This combined with the time-saving attributes of the Quick Release clasp, which can reduce downtime by as much as 92%, provides a great deal of cost-savings for our customers.”
Nordson EFD’s 781Mini spray valve uses Low Volume Low Pressure (LVLP) technology to provide precision spray control for patterns as narrow as 1 mm (0.04") wide. This capability meets assembly process requirements for micro-spraying onto miniature components within tight tolerances. The valve features high transfer efficiency with nearly zero overspray.
The 781Mini is also 60% smaller than conventional spray valves, making it possible to mount more valves per fixture plate for high volume applications.
