Applications

Overmoulding across industries

Low-pressure overmoulding technology was initially used in the automotive industry to waterproof connectors and add effective strain relief for wires and cables. Nowadays, the applications of this technology have expanded rapidly.

Overmoulding is now used to provide electronics encapsulation across a wide range of sectors. From Automotive to Military and Medical, we have extensive experience in fulfilling even the most complex overmoulding briefs to meet specific industry requirements.

Example 1

Control electronics for Automotive sensor moulded with Macromelt OM6208S

The low pressure applied during the moulding process prevents damage to the electronics, protecting the elements from external influences such as moisture and mechanical stressing.

Example 2

Complex PCB assembly overmoulded with Macromelt OM6208

Complete overmoulding of the PCB assembly provides IP67 protection. This particular project was moulded in a two-stage process for a high-quality finish, creating a durable product that lasts.

Example 3

Grommet inserted-moulded with Macromelt OM638

One of the strengths of the moulding process is the possibility of moulding grommets where they are needed in any shape or size. The moulding can also include strain relief.
