When it comes to soldering, our engineers always have problems finding the right product that will last, ensuring we wont have to come back and redo the process. When one of our sister companies introduced us to EFD Inc, we were beyond impressed, to say the least. It made their job so much easier AND we got less return calls to come back and fix the mistake. We have bought a stock of their solder paste. It really helps when it comes to filling those hard to reach gaps and vertical surfaces, as well as the hard to solder surfaces which helps tremendously as majority that we use ranges from stainless steel to steel piping.
We recommend EFD Inc to those companies which have been through the same difficulties as we have experienced!

Strengths: Strong product, really makes it reliable to use over and over again.

Needs to improve: Not that we know of!

Speed 4 / Price 4 / Quality 4

One of our products requires the application of adhesive to bond pcb, plastic substraights together. While a manual system is adequate, the EFD dispensing system by Norton can make application of the adhesive consistent over the manufacturing process - by cutting down on human error. Our engineers, along with production was please with how the EFD Dispenser System worked. It's easy to use and can be programed to apply the correct amount of adhesive each application.

Strengths: Reliable & Dependable, Accurate Quotes, Customer Service

Needs to improve: depending on the unit that is used or requested for adhesive application the delivery time can be as long as 4 weeks...

EFD dispenser Review

Speed 5 / Price 5 / Quality 5

One of our bonding process was inconsistent on the Tensile Strength due to the manually process of applying loctite at the bonding joint. Then we purchased EFD dispenser system and re-validate the bonding process. Our Tensile Strength variation were consistent with a small standard deviation. The bonding process is reliable and repeatable to meet the 95/95% confident and reliability. Also the operators are please to EFD Dispenser System. It's easy to use and reduce the mess on the production floor. Just it setup to the right pressure and time.

Strengths: Great Process Equipment

Our review on EFD relates to their adhesives that we have purchased. We have been very satisfied with our adhesive purchases as they are very durable, and come in various sizes depending on what size products we are building which allows us to go to EFD as our one stop shop for adhesives. The pricing is slightly higher than other groups, but the quality is well worth the premium.

Strengths: They know adhesives inside out, with wide range of size and strength.

EFD is our source for quality adhesives for a wide spectrum of applications. Customer service is always happy to help and offer their insight.

Speed 5 / Price 3 / Quality 5

While not inexpensive, the EFD adhesive delivery systems work very well. I have used both the newer blue units as well as the older black units on the manufacturing line and R&D lab with excellent results. On the line, they can make a huge difference in reliability of the bonding processes, in the lab they are just more convenient than using the hand plungers.

Strengths: Adhesive dispensing

Our experience with the EFD Inc is that their workstation is a precision dispensing system that applies accurate, consistent amounts of adhesives, lubricants, silicones, epoxies and other fluids used in benchtop assembly processes — from neat, controlled beads to uniform dots as small as 0.004 inches in diameter. Their standard features is incomparable to other.

EFD has an excellent adhesive it is stronger then any other adhesive I've tried. It holds down larger components and prevents solder cracks from vibration without the corrosive out gassing of silicone. They also have great shipping rates. Helps you decide what you need before ordering a large quantity. The customer service is very supportive. Well recommended.
