Power Train Assembly SolutionsAutomated adhesive and sealant dispensing systems for power train gasketing applications
The challenge for improvement is a constant when it comes to manufacturing automotive equipment. And with it comes the need to deliver products that consistently meet the industry’s performance specifications, while maintain-ing your own profitability.
When it comes to adhesive and sealant dispensing, no one can rise up to these challenges like Nordson. We are the world’s largest supplier of precision dispensing technologies. Our engineered system solutions are designed to deliver speed, lower costs and enhance product quality in your operations.
Better Gaskets and Lower Costs
Power train components use a compression gasket to form a permanent seal that is impervious to internally held fluids. They also protect power train components from external dirt, dust, water, moisture, oils, road salt and other particu-lates. Gaskets must be sealed to withstand extreme environ-mental and engine operating temperatures and are typically required to last 100,000 miles or 10 years. Typical applica-tions include water pumps, oil pans, radiators, timing covers, transmission components and rocker arm covers.
Nordson automated systems allow manufacturers to robotically apply form-in-place or cure-in-place compression gaskets directly to the part, eliminating manual application. Replacing manual applications with proven systems from Nordson provides the following benefits:
n Fast, repeatable gasket dispensing
n Accurate deposition and control
n Increased productivity
n Reduced material costs
n Consistent part quality
What’s more, automated dispensing systems from Nordson are designed to handle today’s most advanced power train gasketing materials, including UV-cure silicones, moisture-cure silicones and UV/moisture-cure silicones, giving you the best in application flexibility.
