Hot Melt Molding Case Study: "Waterproof Connector"
Low Pressure Molding, Hot Melt Molding, Waterproof and Dustproof, Encapsulation Molding
Introduction to the hot melt molding method that completes 4 waterproof connectors in 30 seconds.
Hot melt molding is a molding technique that involves injecting a solvent-free, one-component thermoplastic hot melt adhesive into a mold at low pressure. This method is widely used for purposes such as dustproofing, waterproofing, vibration resistance, impact resistance, insulation, and housing functionality. In this catalog, we introduce examples of process improvement and value analysis through the switch from waterproof connector rubber bushings. [Challenge] We want to waterproof the wire insertion area. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

basic information
<Conventional Method Rubber Bush> - Pass the rubber bush through the core wire before crimping the terminal. Insert it into the connector. - The rubber bush becomes an obstacle, making automatic terminal crimping impossible, so the more cores there are, the more difficult the work becomes. ↓ <Hot Melt Molding> - No rubber bush required. - After crimping the terminal with an automatic machine, insert it into the connector. Arrange 4 of them on the mold and start the cycle. - 4 waterproof connectors are completed in 30 seconds. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Our company provides comprehensive support for the introduction of hot melt molding methods, from initial technical discussions and appropriate hot melt selection to prototype production and evaluation, optimal process considerations for mass production, proposals for optimal equipment or the design and manufacturing of dedicated machines (automated systems), hot melt supply and line support. For customers for whom equipment installation poses a barrier to adopting this method, we even offer production contracting at our facility, ensuring support from "start to finish." **Benefits of Hot Melt Molding** - Improved production efficiency and cost reduction through alternative methods to potting - Greater design flexibility due to mold forming, enabling miniaturization and lightweighting of components - Use of sustainable raw materials derived from natural fatty acids We have various molding machines and displays of adopted products available at our prototype lab in Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture.
