About Company

SPEC, a leading provider of dispensing systems for liquids and powders, today announced that it is expanding its dispensing capabilities into the paste ink market with the introduction of the RTP3000 fully automated paste dispensing system. Over the past year, SPEC has made significant investments and tested numerous materials in order to achieve the most efficient and reliable small batch paste dispenser available. The result is the RTP3000 paste dispensing system. It not only dispenses each ingredient accurately to provide batch-to-batch shade repeatability but also provides production and cost reporting, returned ink reformulation, and complete ink room inventory control. “We have long been committed to finding reliable and affordable dispensing solutions to fit each of our customer’s individual needs,” said Marvin McDonald, President of SPEC, Inc. “The RTP3000 is another example of SPEC extending that commitment to our paste ink customers.” The dispensing system works in conjunction with a standard eight pound Sonoco Flow-Rite® dispensing cartridge. The cartridges are loaded into the carousel through a door in the back of the system. Up to 20 cartridges can be loaded at a time. The cartridges are rotated as needed over the dispense container. SPEC’s technologically advanced patent pending dispensing mechanism uses a direct acting “active” valve for precise control of material discharged from the cartridge. This allows the machine to handle wider variety of materials as compared to cartridges that use indirect passive valves. The RTP3000 is a gravimetric dispensing system using a scale as the basis for dispensing. “The RTP3000 dispensing system is simple and reliable,” McDonald adds. “Without the use of expensive pumps typically required with high viscosity materials, maintenance of the machine is greatly reduced, as well as price.”
