EFD^® Introduces Optimum™ Product Line

EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I.--(EON:Enhanced Online News)--EFD, Inc., a subsidiary of Nordson Corporation (NASDAQ: NDSN), introduces the new Optimum Component Product Line.

In developing Optimum, EFD has taken a new approach and employed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to engineer a new, comprehensive family of disposable components that bring fluid dispensing and filling processes to a higher level of reliability to meet the stringent demands of today’s cutting edge manufacturing processes.

By ensuring that the same amount of material is dispensed on every part, every time, EFD systems improve product quality and reduce waste, rework and process variations, which helps companies lower their production costs while increasing throughput and profitability.

Optimum Components Available:

• Syringe Barrels – Provide even, laminar flow of watery low viscosity fluids to thick viscous materials during both the filling and dispensing processes. The internal CFD- enhanced geometry eliminates any opportunity for “dead spots” that could trap air bubbles during filling or dispensing.
• Pistons – Revolutionary new design channels fluid during the filling process to eliminate air entrapment. Precision molded to mate perfectly with syringe barrels and wipe them clean as fluid is dispensed, eliminating costly waste and simplifying disposal.
• Adapters, End Caps and Tip Caps –The Optimum adapter installs easily and incorporates a safety feature that eliminates the chance of accidental blow-off. The new end cap incorporates a unique pushbutton for error-free attachment and an air-tight seal. Tip caps have a special venting feature to ensure that no air is pushed into the fluid during the installation process.
• Compatibility –Backwards compatibility has been maintained to ensure that the Optimum system may be used with existing mounting fixtures, adapters and EFD’s extensive line of precision dispensing tips.

EFD, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Nordson Corporation. Since 1963 EFD has designed and manufactured precision dispensing devices for applying controlled amounts of the adhesives, sealants, lubricants and other assembly fluids used in almost every manufacturing process. EFD’s products are available through their worldwide network operating in over 30 countries.
