NORDSON, a German company founded in 1983, has evolved into a manufacturer of automatic fluid dispensing systems. In the mid-1970s, three founders, Robert Ciardella, Alec Babiarz and Philip Maiorca, worked together to develop computer peripherals. Including inkjet printers. They identified what is now called "desktop automation" and targeted their efforts at the precise desktop automatic fluid dispensing assembly market - an advance on the use of hand-held syringes to dispense glue in mechanical assembly. In August 1996, Asymtek was acquired as a subsidiary of Norshinin Corporation, which had been a customer for nine years. With more than 35 years of experience, Nordson ASYMTEK is dedicated to providing innovative dispensing solutions and excellent support to its customers. [more]
