The benefits of low pressure molding 低压成型的好处
Material Compatibility
【低压注塑成型的好处】材料兼容性
Hotmelt polymers used in low pressure molding are lightweight and have excellent adhesion to multiple surfaces. They possess high temperature, shock, environmental and solvent resistance and no cure process is required. The material also contains no fillers so mold sets can be made out of less expensive aluminum and still be durable. Materials are suitable for overmolding sensitive electronic components, and many grades are UL 94V0 approved. Henkel materials that have been tested to ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards are also available. Contact us for more information on these materials.
Sustainability
可持续性
With low pressure molding there is minimal waste as only the parts being protected are encapsulated. It is solvent-free and 80% of raw materials are based on renewables (vegetable oils). There are no harmful fumes from the molding process and it is RoHS and REACH compliant.
Cost Savings
节约成本
There are fewer physical parts, reducing the number of items on the bill of materials (BOM) and inventory as well as work-in-process. This also results in lower labor cost per part and reduced shipping costs of final products. Fewer steps in the process results in less equipment, reducing production space and lowering capital equipment costs.
Low pressure molding is lower in cost versus conventional injection molding tooling and there is further potential to lower mold costs and reduce lead time by creating molds with Henkel 3D printing materials.
Simplified Manufacturing Process
简化制造过程
Part of the appeal of low pressure molding is its ease of processing. Whereas conventional potting can involve as many as eight or more distinct steps and take as long as 24 hours to complete, the low pressure molding process can be achieved in as little as 30 seconds, enabling increased throughput. Compared to mechanical enclosure, low pressure molding can replace a 2+ part housing that may involve gasketing, fasteners and assembly labor.
