Company Overview

Since its inception in 1974, Fluid Automation, Inc. has been at the forefront of developing and building state-of-the-art dispensing equipment for RTV and LSR materials. Lance Daby, president of Fluid Automation, launched his successful company when he developed the first “direct-from-the-drum” pumping system for RTV materials. The immediate success of this endeavor established his company’s reputation for innovation, quality and exceptional customer support.

Strategically located between two of the country’s top liquid silicone rubber manufacturers, Fluid Automation has always been an industry leader and established itself early on as a partner with its customers. Based on Fluid Automation’s success with its 10:1 RTV machines, the company was asked to develop the industry’s first systems for dispensing 1:1 LSR materials. The patented, hydraulic slave drive system was the beginning of an ever evolving product line that now includes PLC-controlled closed-loop metering units, transfer and metering systems, electric-servo motor operated metering machines, table-top cartridge dispensing systems and all pneumatic machines. Rounding out the product offerings is a complete line of LSR injection molding accessories including LSR injection nozzles, water-cooled material pressure regulators, material filter packs and a variety of static mixer sizes and styles.

As the LSR market evolved so did the need for specialized equipment. Approached by several customers to develop, design and build custom machinery, Fluid Automation now offers turnkey automation equipment for injection molding, WXYZ bead dispensing, coating line machinery and specialty dispensing equipment.

“We are constantly developing and expanding our product line to encompass the evolving needs of our customers and the growing LSR and RTV markets,” says Lance Daby, president. “We are moving aggressively into foreign markets in Asia, Australia, Europe and South America as we are determined to make Fluid Automation a worldwide leader of quality LSR and RTV dispensing equipment.”
