Dispensing valves are devices used for accurately dispensing liquid or paste-like materials in precise quantities. They are crucial in the manufacturing and assembly of industrial products, enabling precise application of adhesives, grease, paint, and other materials.
Operators can adjust material quantity and speed using control panels or computers, fine-tuning valve parameters for precise distribution. These valves are available in manually operated, air-driven, and solenoid variations, each offering distinct operational advantages.
