Micro liquid dispensing technology is widely used in the field of electronic packaging. This study presents a lumped parameter model of a needle-type piezostack-driven jetting dispenser, which can produce small high viscosity adhesive droplets with a high driving frequency. After describing the structural components and operating principles of the dispenser, a lumped parameter model for the system is derived by integrating the sub-models of the structural and fluid parts. According to the lumped parameter method, the fluid channels of the dispenser have been divided into several lumps to obtain a more accurate performance. Based on the proposed model, the jetting dispenser is designed and manufactured, and its performance is then evaluated through both computer simulations and experiments. Further experimental studies about its working properties based on the proposed dispenser are carried out. The results are used to guide the design and control works about the proposed dispenser.
