This is a step-by-step procedure to use the Nordson Robot in B33 to deposit SE4445 in the star pattern. This page supersedes the content at Building 33 - Setting up for gluing in the lab.
Turn dry-air valve counterclockwise ¼ turn.
There should be a hissing noise from the air flow.
This dry air is used to control EFD and height gauge. |
Turn EFD on
The screen will display a default menu.
The settings for SE4445 are preset 001 and make sure it is set on "steady".
To change the settings refer to Building 33 - Setting up for gluing in the lab for instructions. |

Glue deposition procedure
Program file name: Rachel_Hannah_StarAtArbAngle_CarbonFiberEdition
A single JRC program file may contain many programs. A complete glue deposition program contains program data and a point data array specifying where to take actions. The actions themselves are encoded in point jobs. The confluence page Building 33: Programming and using the glue robot breaks down some key concepts. Further information is in the JR-C manuals, linked for download at {gotta upload them}
You can view the complete list of programs using the drop down program menu in the Toolbar. Program numbers with names beginning "----" are actually empty. Those program numbers serve as visual dividers so that we can comment the program menu. |

Program list & purposes

Program #6 is a blank program, serving as a visual divider between calibration-oriented programs and the Temporary Fixtures series (programs 7 and 8)
|
Program #9 is a blank program, serving as a visual divider between the Temporary Fixtures dispensing series and the Full Ring dispensing series. Each member of the Full Ring dispensing series dispenses all triplets or quads on one side of the ring local support with pause. There are four programs, corresponding to the 2 sides ("tubes up" and "tubes down") and the two module types.
