Low pressure moulding is perfect for Low to medium volume production 50+ units.
Low pressure moulding is a manufacturing process that sits between injection moulding and potting.
Material Facts
- Non toxic, single component polyamide material.
- Moulding material has shore hardness range from 77 to 92
- Material meets UL 94-V0
- Material has High Dielectric properties up to 25kV / mm
- Great adhesion to different substrate, including ABS, PVC, XLPE etc.
- Moulding material has a temperature range -40°c to + 125°c
- Fast cure time’s
Moulds for standard D-type connectors are already available, so production can commence in a short timescale without the need to procure tooling.
Custom tools can be designed in house and sourced within 6-8 weeks, often
less. The scope for over-moulded components is enormous with the possibility
of incorporating printed circuits, ferrites, multiple cable entry points to
identify a few of the applications.
Tooling
Facts
- Low pressure moulding is Cost effective and less expensive than complicated
injection methods
- Over moulding has the advantage of Low start up costs compared to costly
injection moulding.
- Long tool life.
- Precision-machined tool = high repeatability = low waste.
- Mould bushes or other mechanical fixings easily incorporated into your design.
- Possibility to mould strain relief or cable boots.
- Design’s can still maintain shielding for EMC, EMI properties.
- Option to mould company logo or part numbers.
- Mat or gloss surface finishes.
There are many benefits of over-moulding: rugged, almost unbreakable protection; built in strain relief; cosmetically attractive; possibility of incorporating company logos.
