The Best Waterproof And Impact Resistance Solution for Electronic Components: Low Pressure Molding

The Best Waterproof And Impact Resistance Solution for Electronic Components: Low Pressure Molding

Advantages of Low Pressure Molding

"Low-pressure molding (LPM)" uses environmentally friendly rubber materials to form products, which is becoming a trend in the West. More and more customers choose or switch to "low pressure molding" because it has many advantages:
 

  • IP 67 grade waterproof & harsh enviroment resistance.
  • More productive due to reduced production steps and shorter cycle time per part to mold.
  • Fulfill the need for waterproofing and impact resistance for electronic components.
  • Potting takes a longer cycle time, 24 hours on average, while the LPM process takes around 45 - 60 seconds to complete molding.  Additionally, it takes 8 steps to complete the process, and more spaces for curing when LPM completes the whole process in 3 steps.


Low Pressure Molding Process

LPM simplified the production process to only 3 steps to solve your pain points in molding!

Step 1: Insert parts

Step 2: Inject & Mold

  • The injection pressure is low and helps to protect fragile electronic components. The eco-friendly materials provide better watertight encapsulation.
  • Cycle time per part to mold only takes 45-60 seconds.
  • Custom structure/shape for the products, as the materials can be skylined around electronic components.

Step 3: Test

  • IP67 dustproof/waterproof. Products can be adapted to a harsh environment.


Applications of Low Pressure Molding

LPM has been widely applied in various cutting-edge fields, such as electronic bikes, automobiles, marine, PCB encapsulation, and sensors.
