A supplier of technology-based systems for curing and surface-treatment processes produces precision dispensing equipment that applies adhesives, sealants, and coatings to products during manufacturing. Nordson Corp. (Westlake, OH), along with such high-technology subsidiaries as Asymtek, EFD, and March Plasma Systems, has developed liquid and powder dispensing, plasma surface treatment, solder assembly, fluid-jetting, nanofiber, and ultraviolet curing products. The company’s Life Sciences group has launched a Web portal that highlights the coordination of these technologies. The group focuses on delivering process efficiencies and cost savings to the biotechnology, medical device, and medical electronics industries.

The site’s users can access technical papers and trade show information, gain access to lab capabilities, and explore the firm’s new applications. They also can register to have a Nordson representative visit their facilities to provide a dispensing seminar.

“Nordson systems bring higher quality, speed, and increased efficiency to a wide range of life sciences applications,” says Nancy Gleason, manager of the Nordson Life Sciences group. “Our new portal site provides manufacturers with easy access to comprehensive information from all the Nordson companies that serve life sciences, and allows them to browse for application-specific technologies.”
