Over the years the deployment of enormous research and development resources into the electronics industry has been a rising global trend. In Taiwan, the electronics industry is regarded as a key pillar for influencing the overall economy. For almost all electronic products, the printed circuit board (PCB) inside is a backplane base connecting components and allowing electric current to be routed between components. Dispensing is one of the critical techniques in the PCB assembly process that places glue on the PCB surface to steady components. 

Glue dispensing is a mature process in PCB manufacturing. However, there are still practical pain points for traditional and automated production lines. Traditional dispensing relies heavily on manual operation with fixed positioning to conduct pick-and-place, which is time-consuming, less flexible, and provides a high error rate and low product quality. Seeing these serious problems, manufacturers are keen to upgrade their traditional dispensing with automation products and solutions.

Aiming at solving these pain points, Delta has introduced its Fly Dispenser Solution, which includes four stages of glue dispensing: code reading and loading, vision positioning, robot dispensing, and unloading. The solution integrates a 5-axis SCARA and dispensing gun to track the continuous line and complete dispensing. It also adopts the Compact Modular Mid-Range PLC AS Series and barcode scanner to read product codes. No need for manual input, the system automatically switches to the corresponding position, providing user-friendly operation to prevent misprocessing. The system also saves historical statistics for real-time monitoring and in-depth analysis. In the positioning process, the Machine Vision Library DIAVision LIB can precisely determine product positions and create information for the SCARA Robot DRS Series to accomplish preset point dispensing. The PCB is then unloaded after drying to complete the glue dispensing process.

Delta’s Fly Dispenser Solution features a comprehensive system architecture with high-speed, stable, and precise operation. What’s more, the solution provides a user-friendly, simple system that allows users to follow the instructions to create a project. With no prior experience needed, users can manage the process and easily duplicate the implementation, enhancing commissioning efficiency by up to 50%. The Delta Fly Dispenser Solution also offers multiple motion modes, including time-adjustable single-point dispensing and speed-adjustable continuous dispensing for precise control of the dispensing position and glue amount, ensuring high-quality processing and satisfying different production scenarios. 

Delta’s Fly Dispenser Solution is an all-in-one solution that adopts self-developed automation products to achieve high stability and integration, help the electronics industry address pain points, upgrade production lines, enhance processing efficiency and quality, and guide customers toward their smart manufacturing transformation.
