Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A dispensing device includes a drive unit, a detector and a controller. The drive unit is configured to operate a material dispenser. The detector is configured to detect a velocity of the material sensor. The controller is programmed to maintain the material dispenser at a constant velocity based on the velocity detected by the detector.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A dispensing device comprising: a drive unit configured to operate a material dispenser; a power supply configured to provide a voltage to the drive unit to operate the material dispenser; and a controller configured to monitor at least one of a current provided to the drive unit and the speed of the material dispenser, and increase at least one of the current from an initial current to a target current and an initial speed to a target speed over a predetermined time interval. 2. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to increase the speed of the material dispenser to the target speed by increasing the speed of the material dispenser at intervals of 0.1 seconds for 3 seconds. 3. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to increase the current provided to the drive unit to the target speed by increasing the current of the material dispenser at intervals of 0.1 seconds for 5 seconds. 4. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the target speed is between 0.5 and 5 mm/s. 5. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the material dispenser is a plunger. 6. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the material dispenser is a first material dispenser of a plurality of material dispensers, and the drive unit is configured to operate the plurality of material dispensers. 7. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the dispensing device is configured to mix first and second materials. 8. The dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to set at least one of the initial current and the initial speed.
