  • Publication number: 20230405629
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dispensing adjustment system, which includes an optical measuring unit, a calculating unit and a glue dispensing control unit. The optical measuring unit measures a glue to obtain a Nth 3D glue signal or a Nth 2D glue signal. The calculating unit receives the Nth 3D glue signal or the Nth 2D glue signal to obtain the volume or the weight of the glue, and compares the volume or the weight of the glue with a default glue value. If the volume or the weight of the glue fails to conform to the default glue value, the calculating unit transmits a Nth glue dispensing adjustment signal to a glue dispensing control unit for the glue dispensing control unit to adjust the glue supplied thereby according to the Nth glue dispensing adjustment signal. The invention can solve the problem that the glue is insufficient or overflows in order to improve the bonding quality.
