-THERMOSET CASTING & MOLDING-




Molding For Electronics
Our overmolding process is one of the best ways to protect your electronics from the environmental conditions it may face through it's life expectancy. This process not only seals your product from the environment with moisture and chemical resistance it will provide a structure with excellent electrical and thermal properties while incorporating mounting capabilities with the look of a finished product ready for service in almost any environment.

Overmolding process is performed with low cost mold sets. We can incorporate seals in the mold for connectors, switches, LED's, sensors or anything you will need access to after the molding is performed. The electronic assembly is inserted into the cavity and then the mold is closed with a clamping device. Once closed it can be injected with the molding material. The material that enters the mold will be between 80-150 deg F and between 10 -150 psi depending on the size and shape of the assembly. This process works well even with the most delicate components in low or high volume production and will ensure the performance of your electronic assemblies even when exposed to the most severe environmental extremes.
Materials used in our process are synthetic polymer compounds that are used in place of plastic and rubber due to the superior properties. Polyurethane, epoxy, acrylic, silicone and RIM (reaction injection molding) polyurethane have excellent dielectric properties and are available in hundreds of custom formulas which have been designed for use in a wide range of specific applications. Some materials exhibit excellent thermal insulating properties while others are highly thermally conductive for thermal management. We also provide materials for demanding high voltage applications along with other products that require superior chemical resistance.
