2 Description
The Loctite®RB10 Rotary Dispense System is a fully integrated system used for
dispensing adhesives onto parts in a circular or arc pattern. It will control a syringe system,
cartridge, or dispense valve without requiring a separate valve controller. Internally
synchronized operation of an advancing slide, turntable, and dispense timer makes for easy
and repetitive placement of the adhesive. The set-up is simple, using only preset distance
and rotation speed adjustment. No complex programming required!

5 Operation
5.1 Theory of Operation
1. After turning on the unit, press the footswitch or ENTER button to activate the
system.
2. The advancing slide will start to extend and the rotary disc will start to rotate with
the preset speed.
3. The advancing slide will activate the proximity sensor when it reaches the preset
position.
4. The start of disc rotation, or the locator pin reaching the proximity sensor (in
homing mode), will trigger the rotation distance counter and the unit will start to
dispense for preset dispensing time. Use of the homing mode ensures that each
dispense start will be at the same point.
5. After the dispensing timer has reached the preset dispense time, the advancing slide
will retract and the rotary disc will be stopped.
6. The dispense start position “DS Position”determines how far the disc will rotate
before starting to dispense. This ensures the rotation has reached a constant speed
when dispense begins.
7. The “Off Delay”feature determines how long the disc will continue to rotate after
the dispense has stopped. This allows product remaining on the tip of the dispenser
to be transferred to the part after the dispense stops, prior to retracting.
8. The reservoir low level sensor setting disables the start signal and displays “Alarm:
RESERVOIR LOW LEVER.”The Low Level state can be manually overridden
allowing the system to cycle by pressing the ENTER button, however the alarm will
continue to be displayed and the system will not cycle using a footswitch or PLC.

5.5 Slide Adjustments
The speed controls on the slide can be adjusted to increase or decrease the speed that the
slide advances or retracts. The speed should be set so that the slide moves at a controlled
rate. This may need to be adjusted to account for more weight on the slide or to change the
slide advance / retract time.
5.6 Reservoir Low Level Control
5.6.1 Disabling the Low Level Function
1. In Set Up mode (see section 5.2) set Low Level Sensor to “Disabled.”
5.6.2 Enabling the Low Level Function

6 Troubleshooting
Before proceeding with any repair or maintenance operation disconnect the
tool from the main electricity supply.
Symptom Possible Corrective Action(s)
Plug the unit inThe “POWER”does not turn
“ON” Set the “POWER”button “ON”position
1. Confirm that the “Air Input”is connected
2. Confirm that the air supply is 80-125 psi.
The system will not pressurize.
3. Confirm that the “Dispense Out”fittings are properly connected or
plugged.
Mounting plate rotates further
than distance setting. Higher speeds and part weights will cause the mounting plate to carry beyond the distance setting. The distance setting is intended for reference
purposes only as an aid to initial set up.
The slide is advancing or
retracting too fast or slow. The slide advance and retract rate should be set so that the slide moves at a controlled rate. The factory default is for the full slide stroke to take
approximately 0.5 seconds. If this needed to be adjusted, see Section 5.5
for instructions.
1. Confirm that the air supply is pressurized and at 80-125 psi.The disc will not stop rotating
and the display reads
“Homing… ”OR
Display read "Dispenser in wait"
2. Confirm that the advancing slide moves down when the cycle starts.
1. Check that XS2 cable between the reservoir and the RB10 is connected.The “Reservoir Low Level
Alarm Light”(1) does not work 2. Check that Low Level Sensor Switch setting is in the “enabled”state.
1. Check the pneumatic connection.The dispense valve does not
dispense 2. Check the pneumatic supply.
7 Care and Maintenance
7.1 Care
This unit should be stored in a level, dry location at ambient condition out of direct
sunlight.
7.2 Maintenance
To minimize wear of the slide assembly, periodically apply several drops of light machine
oil to the slide rods, manually advance and retract the slide several times then remove the
