EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I.--(Business Wire / Korea Newswire)--Nordson EFD, a Nordson company (NASDAQ: NDSN) and the world’s leading manufacturer of precision fluid dispensing systems, introduces a new Better Dispensing™ How-To Video series. These four highly-educational videos, presented by EFD Application Specialist Tom Muccino, provide best practices for selecting and setting up syringe barrel pistons for more controlled industrial fluid dispensing processes.

“Pistons are a very small, yet important part of a successful application,” Muccino said. “They prevent tunneling in thick fluids and allow better control of thin fluids for precise, repeatable dispensing outcomes.”

Nordson EFD manufactures six different types of Optimum® syringe barrel pistons designed to improve process control for different applications. Knowing which one to use and how to use it improves dispensing results to keep production running smoothly with less rework, rejects, and fluid waste.

· How Pistons Improve Your Dispensing Process
This video provides an overview of why pistons are an important part of your process and should not be overlooked.

· How to Select the Right Piston for Your Fluid
This video explains each type of piston, how it was designed, and what solution it provides for different fluids.

· How to Set Up a Blue Piston for Thin CAs and Watery Fluids
This video provides instructions for how to use EFD’s unique blue LV Barrier piston when dispensing watery fluids and cyanoacrylates.

· How to Prevent Air Bubbles from Causing Piston Bounce
This video explains the many ways an operator can unknowingly create an environment for piston bounce, with helpful tips on how to avoid that.

These new Better Dispensing How-To videos are the third series of educational videos from Nordson EFD. The goal is to provide best practices to help manufacturers improve dispensing processes to achieve greater throughput while reducing rejects, rework, and fluid waste.
