At the same time, the Z-axis motor 87 drives the glue dispensing head 4 to rotate, so that the glue outlet of the glue dispensing head 4 is always facing the heat exchanger frame template 9, so that the glue dispensing head 4 moves relative to the heat exchanger frame template 9 on the workbench 7 according to the set trajectory to inject glue. After the glue injection is completed, the heat exchanger frame template 9 is replaced for the next glue injection.
[0034] The pneumatic solenoid valve 2 arranged on the glue outlet pipe 3 can ensure that the glue dispensing head 4 can stably discharge glue. The first moving component 6 and the second moving component 8 drive the workbench 7 and the glue storage cylinder 1 (i.e., the glue dispensing head 4) to perform mobile glue injection, thereby replacing manual movement of the glue dispensing head 4 to inject glue. This can ensure uniform speed glue dispensing to avoid uneven glue coating and ensure stable glue injection quality.
