Dosing system

A dosing system in surface technology is a device or system that is used to dose specific materials or chemicals in precise quantities and apply them to the surfaces to be treated. These systems play an important role in various applications, including coating, bonding, cleaning and surface treatment.

The basic principle of a dispensing system is to accurately dispense and distribute the correct amount of material or chemical according to the requirements of the process. This is achieved through various components and technologies that can be customized for the specific requirements of the application.

A dosing system can have various features, including

- Metering pumps: these pumps are used to transfer the materials or chemicals from the storage containers and feed them into the metering process. They can include various types, such as piston pumps, diaphragm pumps or peristaltic pumps, depending on the requirements of the application.

- Dosing control: A precise control unit is required to accurately monitor and control the dosing of materials or chemicals. This can be achieved through the use of sensors, meters and automated control systems that ensure the correct amount of material or chemical is applied to the surface.

- Dispensing nozzles or nozzle heads: These components are responsible for distributing the dispensed material or chemicals onto the surface. They can be specially designed to ensure even distribution and ensure that the material or chemicals are applied exactly where they are needed.

Dispensing systems can be customized for a variety of applications and materials, from liquid coatings and adhesives to cleaning and surface treatment agents. They provide a precise and efficient way of applying materials or chemicals to surfaces and are therefore essential for the production of high-quality products in surface technology.
