Abstract:

Apparatus and method for the formation and application of small drops of liquid to a workpiece at a predetermined location thereon. The apparatus includes a machine vision system including a computer operable to view the drop as it is being formed and calculate a value indicative of the drop volume and control formation of the drop using the value. Application of the drop to the workpiece is also monitored and controlled by the machine vision system. The method and apparatus are particularly suited for use in the application of very small drops having actual volumes of less than about 30 nanoliters.
