The new dosing systems a.tronNext now detect the respective position of the component during the bonding and sealing of structural elements and automatically apply the assembly and adhesive to the intended position. The application path is monitored by the camera, which sends signals to the dosing controller via an interface. The sensors also check the applied quantity and transmit this data to the control unit.
