Welcome to Zephyrtronics! The World's First Low Temp Approach to the Electronic Benchtop.

AIRMILL ZT-5100
Automatic, Precision Fluid Dispensing System with Digital Pulse Timer and Adjustable Air Pressure

 

New! Order Securely On-Line.

 

The ZT-5100 AirMill™Dispensing System "controls the duration of the air to the solder paste syringe. The amount of solder applied can be controlled using pressure and time controls." -- NASA Report, Jan. 9, 2004

Reliable, Low-Cost & Simple Dispensing: Whether your job requires high-volume, repetitive and precision dispensing or low-volume prototyping where accurately dispensed shots are still critical, the  ZT-5100 Air Mill  is your easy-to-use and economically-priced dispensing system.

ZT-5100 Air Mill provides you with either fully automatic dispensing with its front panel timer dial, or manual activation one shot at a time with the system's foot pedal. The system puts you in control and makes it all simple for you.

Ideal for dispensing most all liquids packaged within barrels or syringes, this popular unit is found on benchtops' around the world dispensing solder pastes, thermo-conductive adhesives, fluxes, lubricants, sealants, welding creams, silicons and more.  Understanding the common pitfalls that technicians deal with at the bench, our engineers packaged together this smart looking, economical and highly utilitarian product so you can 'getting it right' when dispensing.

More Details:

Air Power Beats Hand Power! The ZT-5100 Air Mill puts all of the advantages of air power, adjustable air pressure and digital pulse timing at your fingertips resulting in a cleaner operation with far more consistent and repeatable fluid deposits than possible with most manual methods and devices.

Tired of Hand Dispensing With a Syringe and Your Thumb? No more struggling with difficult manual dispensing methods and tools. No more fretting about inconsistent deposits. No more hand fatigue from manipulating syringes and squeezing tubes. No more guess work and "eyeballing" your fluid deposits. The ZT-5100 Air Mill is a premium, precision fluid dispensing system for most all viscosities of fluids featuring digital timing control for reproducibility and regulated vacuum helping prevent unwanted drippings.

Two Dispensing Modes: Automatic and Manual Shots: And for those dispensing tasks that require some "eyeballing" and/or beading, the ZT-5100 AirMill features an illuminated timer bypass switch and a foot pedal for manual operation. (The foot pedal is standard equipment).

 

You Choose! The ZT-5100  Provide Both Auto-Timed Dispensing & Manual Shot Modes by  Convenient, Lighted  Switch at Front Panel. Foot Pedal Comes Standard With Each ZT-5100.

Lots of Extra Goodies:  At no extra charge, Zephyrtronics packs a lot of extra gear (foot pedal, too) and accessories along with your ZT-5100 so you can begin dispensing right away. Unlike other dispenser manufacturers who nickel and dime you on every "option", we pack it all with the system including a wide variety of gauges and styles of dispensing needles and tips so you can determine and select the precise dispensing tip for your individual applications. We have you covered.

"Suck-Back" Feature Prevents Unwanted Drippings During Dispensing: It's important to point out that the ZT-5100 AirMillalso has a dial control right on the front panel for vacuum adjustments for "suck back" to balance the dispensing pressure against unwanted drippings. So whether you are  dispensing solder pastes, adhesives, sealants or lubricants, the ZT-5100 will increase your productivity, decrease fluid waste, increase worker confidence, decrease rework, increase quality and consistency, and decrease scrap...saving time, money and frustration.

Space-Saving Design: The small profile/footprint of the ZT-5100 is no indicator of the versatility of this system. Here is a fluid dispenser with an almost unlimited range of applications from generous potting and filling work to microdot depositing. And for those engaged in printed circuit board low volume assembly, prototyping, and rework and repair where solder paste is required, the ZT-5100 is truly an essential element at the benchtop. And for those dispensing tasks that require some "eyeballing" and/or beading, the ZT-5100 AirMill features an illuminated timer bypass switch and a foot pedal for manual operation. (Note: The foot pedal is standard equipment).

Extra Goodies! The ZT-5100 Air Mill, Ships With Over $100 of Accessories Including: a Very Generous Variety of Gauges of Dispensing Tips; the Barrel Storage Stand;  Several Size Barrels, and an Operating Manual Filled with Helpful Dispensing Techniques

 

 

Our Easy Navigation Front Panel: The control panel of the ZT-5100 AirMill is distinctive and easy-to-navigate with clear markings for the technician for the Barrel Vacuum Control, the Air Pressure Dial and the Timing Control. Moreover, both the Main Power Switch and the Timer By-Pass Switch are illuminated. Typical of Zephyrtronics products, the Operating Manual is filled with helpful dispensing techniques. Each ZT-5100 features a full one year limited warranty, is made in the USA, and is 100% factory tested before shipping from our factory in Southern California.

All Metal, Rugged Construction (Not Partially Plastic Like Others): We have to point this out: The AirMill is completely housed within an ESD-Safe, durable metal casing intended for industrial usage. As you may know, many (if not most) dispensing units on the market are made of thin-wall plastic which do break easily. Your ZT-5100 is a tool, not an imported toy.

   

Distinctive in Styling, the ZT-5100  is Easy to Navigate with Clear Markings on the Front Control Panel & Lighted Rocker Switches.
