Nordson EFD will present multiple assembly automation demonstrations at MD&M West featuring PROX and PROPlus automated fluid dispensing systems for next-gen medical device prototyping and assembly operations.

Nordson EFD's premier assembly automation demonstration exhibits the encapsulation of delicate embedded sensors in wearable technologies utilizing a 3-axis PROX system to dispense medical epoxy. Similar to water in viscosity, these critical epoxies encase sensor components that physically touch the skin and protect them from moisture and contaminants to ensure device reliability. A second live demonstration features a 4-axis PROPlus system simulating the underfill dispensing of a UV cure or thermal adhesive to fill gaps between a chip and its carrier or a finished package and the printed circuit board substrate. This crucial process protects electronics from thermal or environmental stresses and provides mechanical stability. A third automation demonstration exhibits a highly precise needle bonding application executed by two PICO Nexus controllers and two angled PICO XP jet valves. Integral to these demonstrations, the Nordson EFD line of Optimum fluid dispensing components ensure high quality manufacturing results.
