matches the fluid pressure to the machine speed, achieving consistent pattern volume. As machine speed increases,
the valve remains open for a short period of time. For the same volume of adhesive to appear on the product, the
adhesive must flow at a higher rate, achieved by increasing the fluid pressure.

pressure adjustments instantly. It does not change the pressure table profile.
