Waterproof sealing in 30 seconds! Miniaturization and high durability of outdoor power equipment electronic units.
Waterproof, dustproof, low-pressure molding, substrate encapsulation, hot melt, LPM, outdoor power equipment, OPE, electric tools, cordless, battery-operated equipment.
Waterproof and compact electrical components for outdoor power equipment/electric tools! Protect electrical components from rain, dust, and vibration! High-reliability hot melt molding.
Electronic units for brush cutters, chainsaws, and power tools are exposed to harsh environments such as rainwater, dust, and vibration. Hot melt molding achieves high waterproofing, vibration resistance, and miniaturization by directly sealing the electronic units. Additionally, it reduces the need for potting processes and waterproof cases, contributing to lower manufacturing costs. **Points of Hot Melt Molding:** 1. **High Reliability** Hot melt molding sealing has over 20 years of proven use in waterproof and dustproof applications for automotive and aircraft parts, boasting high reliability. 2. **Gentle Low-Pressure Molding for Electronic Components** Molding is done at extremely low pressures of 0.3 to 5 MPa, preventing damage to the sealed electronic components. 3. **Excellent Productivity** Sealing is completed in one shot within seconds, allowing for significant "tact time reduction" compared to potting. 4. **Miniaturization and Lightweight Products** Molding can be done in shapes that conform to the contours of the components without the need for housing, enabling "miniaturization and lightweight design." 5. **Environmentally Friendly** The hot melt products we handle are primarily made from plant-based fatty acid materials derived from grains.
