Two-component pneumatic dispenser

The two-component pneumatic dispenser gun is the indispensable tool for production lines requiring high throughput and perfect dispensing consistency. Unlike manual solutions, it uses compressed air to ensure constant adhesive extrusion, thereby guaranteeing a homogeneous mix through the mixing nozzle. The ACROM range relies on the expertise of Medmix (COX and MK brands) to offer robust applicators, adapted to the most common mixing ratios (1:1, 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1), allowing for effortless structural bonding with millimetric precision.

Pneumatic Technology in Industrial Environments

Integrating pneumatic dispenser guns into your workshops meets objectives for productivity, quality, and occupational health and safety (HSE).

Repeatability and Quality: The constant air pressure guarantees a regular flow of the adhesive bead, avoiding over-application or shortages, which are critical for the mechanical strength of the assemblies.
Comfort and Ergonomics (HSE): By eliminating the manual effort of squeezing, these tools drastically reduce the risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) among operators, even when using high-viscosity industrial adhesives.
Ratio Versatility: Our dispenser guns are compatible with a wide range of two-component cartridges (50ml, 200ml, 400ml, 490ml, and 600ml), whether processing methacrylates, epoxies, or polyurethanes.
Process Control: Equipped with precision pressure regulators, they allow the extrusion speed to be adjusted according to the complexity of the part being bonded.

Technical Comparison: Pneumatic vs Manual Dispenser Gun

This table helps determine the most suitable equipment based on your production volumes and the nature of your adhesives.

Technical Criterion	Pneumatic Dispenser Gun	Two-Component Manual Dispenser Gun
Production Volume	Industrial series and high production rates	Maintenance, rework, or short runs
Operator Effort	None (compressed air assistance)	Manual (effort proportional to viscosity)
Flow Consistency	Perfect (regulated pressure)	Variable depending on the force applied
Mobility	Limited by the air line	Total (cordless)
Maintenance	Air circuit maintenance required	Minimal mechanical maintenance

FAQ: The Essentials on Pneumatic Applicators

1. What air pressure should be used for optimal dispensing?

Most of our industrial dispenser guns operate between 5 and 8 bars. It is crucial to use a regulator to adapt the pressure to the viscosity of the adhesive to avoid cartridge bursting or mixture imbalance.

2. Are pneumatic dispenser guns compatible with all adhesive brands?

Yes, our models (COX, MK, Sulzer brands) are designed according to the universal standards for two-component cartridges. They are perfectly adapted to the ACROBOND ranges.

3. How to prevent the adhesive from continuing to flow after releasing the trigger?

Our high-end pneumatic dispenser guns are equipped with a rapid air exhaust system or automatic piston retraction to instantly stop extrusion (anti-drip system).

4. What is the difference between a pneumatic dispenser gun and a battery-operated electric gun?

Pneumatic is ideal for fixed workstations in the workshop with access to compressed air. For construction sites or hard-to-reach areas, the two-component electric dispenser gun offers total mobility with similar precision.

5. How do I maintain my pneumatic dispenser gun?

Regular cleaning of the pistons and light lubrication of moving parts are recommended. It must also be ensured that the compressed air used is dry and unlubricated so as not to contaminate the adhesive in the event of a leak.

The choice of your dispensing equipment is as important as the choice of the adhesive itself. Improper application can compromise the polymerisation of your adhesive. ACROM, drawing on its field experience, advises you on the most efficient gun/nozzle pairing for your application. Contact our technicians for a trial or an equipment demonstration.

Pistolet AirFlow1 CBA200C

CBA 200C is a PC COX SULZER pneumatic gun. CBA 200C is a pneumatic applicator for 200 ml separate cartridges. CBA 200C is ergonomic, very robust and easy to use. The CBA 200C is often used with special cartridges for Volkswagen or Audi brands. Other PC COX SULZER air guns are available for products requiring different mixing ratios.
