Push-To-Connect™ Fluid Dispense Gun and Gun Tray Instructions

The SmartDispenser® Push-To-Connect™ Dispense Gun reduces the time required to change an empty syringe in an automated production cell to seconds.  It is clearly an asset to your manufacturing, as long as you use it properly. Here’s a look at some instructions that will help it run optimally:

Design of the Push-To-Connect™ Gun Mount

The Push-To-Connect™ gun mount is a bifurcated design. The A half is permanently mounted to the dispense gun and has a male molex interface connector. The B half is permanently mounted to the automation cell’s fluid dispensing station, has a female molex interface connector, and a 30-foot electrical cord connecting to the SmartDispenser® mounted in the automation cell’s electronic cabinet.

What to Do When Syringe is Empty or in Automation Cell

When the syringe is in the automation cell or empty, remove the entire dispense gun with a simple wrist caulking motion and place it in the gun tray using a similar motion. The SmartDispenser® fluid dispensing gun tray transports pre filled Push-To-Connect™ fluid dispense guns between the SmartDispenser® priming station to the SmartDispenser® automated production cell.

Details About the Tray

Made from powder coated aluminum, the tray is durable and scratch resistant made to withstand the manufacturing environment. Remove the USB memory stick from the SmartDispenser® priming station and insert into the travel port located on the gun tray. When ready, using both hands pick up the gun tray and transport the push to connect dispense guns to the automated production cell.

Remove the Push-To-Connect Dispense Guns

Next, remove the Push-To-Connect™ dispense guns from the gun tray with a slight caulking motion and insert into the Push-To-Connect™ adapter located on the mount in the automated production cell. The dispense gun is properly seeded when the Push-To-Connect™ clicks into place completing the electrical connection between the dispense gun and the SmartDispenser®. Restart the automation cell.

The entire dispense gun changeover process is reduced to seconds. Transport the gun tray to the SmartDispenser® syringe filling system to refill the empty syringes offline while the automation cell is running production. Experience a level of assembly fluid repeatability you never thought possible/.
