New Precision Technology's System Software now includes a 3D graphic path view. Pattern paths can now be simulated on-screen, reducing the need for "going wet for test." The mode facilitates the creation of new pattern paths, showing the current programmed points and the current active head ("tip") location. This advance represents yet another incremental step in New Precision Technology's pursuit of easy-to-use interfaces married to advanced production techniques.

    New Precision Technology announces true 3D planar correction! With the measurement of three points on a part, the CP System software can re-orient a part path for best-fit, further decreasing potential reject rates. Capable of being used with either tactile or laser based measurement systems, this easily incorporated feature brings added value to a system essential for quality gasket dispensing.

    This handy tool allows prospective customers to input the parameters of their application and receive recommended NPT machine setups. Multiple machine setups will be generated stressing either : overall machine cost, cost-per-part basis, or accuracy/reject rate. The tool is very user-friendly with tips for each input box and pictures to describe the desired parameter. If a parameter is unknown, it can be skipped and a default value will be used if available. Multiple projects can be saved for later viewings and can be updated at any time. Tool results will also display material consumption and show the rapid return-on-investment that NPT solutions offer.

This tool is available only to registerred users through the members tab on our web site. If you are not a member, simply register as a new member. While new members can enter all parameters, only verified registrants have web access to the final analysis. A simple phone call can verify your account and within seconds you will have access to the analysis.

    Our newest calibration routines offer a simple, accurate calibration procedure to establish the relationship between all working heads - dispense, measurement, programming, and manipulation. By leveraging our needle calibration station, we can now calibrate tactile height sensors as well, establishing a perfect relationship between target substrates and dispense tips. Say good-bye forever to slips of paper and feeler gauges that were part of precision gasketing.

    Traditionally, on/off valve controls forced the end user to compensate for the difference in time between when a dispense valve turns on or off and the corresponding point at which material starts or stops on a substrate. Now, through a simple calibration procedure, this concern is another that is relegated to the history books. The calibration procedure helps the end user make a one-time measurement of the time and distance between valve "on" and the start of the gasket as well as the valve "off" and the end of the gasket. Now it does not matter if you are dispensing at 1"/second or even 20"/second, the gasket will start and stop at the programmed points.
