Creating a New Program

This section briefly covers the steps required to create a new dispensing program. For detailed
instructions, refer to the Fluidmove User Guide or Online Help.
NOTE The following procedures assume that the dispensing system is on and FmXP is running.
6.9.1

Loading a Part

1. In the FmXP Main Window, click on
The Programming Window opens.
2. Place the substrate on the conveyor.
3. Click on the
The substrate will be lifted off the conveyor and clamped into place. The substrate should
be evenly clamped and level.
4. Adjust the clamping mechanism as necessary to achieve a level dispensing plane.
When using heated tooling with pedestals, the parts are NOT clamped but held in place
with vacuum and the tool itself must be leveled.
NOTE The dispensing sequence MUST be taught with the part raised and clamped as necessary.
Failing to load the substrate in this manner results in the camera being out of focus.
6.9.2

Setting the Heaters

Heater tooling temperature is set in the Fluidmove software and saved with the dispensing program. The
Heater Controller in the lower front cabinet monitors the Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD),
compares it to the heat parameters set in Fluidmove, and regulates the voltage going to the heating
element to maintain the set temperature.
