Argo Transdata is a full functional Contract Manufacturer.
We can provide Potting and Conformal Coating of part or all
of your assembly.
We commonly use Epoxies and Urethane compounds to seal and
protect sensitive assemblies.
We offer spray coating, potting, fluid bed
coating, brush coating or dip coating.
Conformal coating material is applied to
electronic circuitry to act as protection against moisture,
dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes that if uncoated
(un-protected) could result in a complete failure of the
electronic system.
Selection of the correct choice of
coating material is one of the most critical decisions.
Criteria for selection must be based on answering many
questions, which will include:
• What is being protected against? (e.g., moisture,
chemicals)
• What temperature range will the electrical device
encounter?
• What are the physical, electrical, and chemical
requirements for the coating material itself?
• Electrical, chemical, and mechanical compatibility with
the parts and substances to be coated
Answers will
be determined by the suitability of a particular material, be it
acrylic, polyurethane, silicone, epoxy, transparent, fully
covering, etc. Process,
production and commercial issues will then enter the
equation:
• How easily can the material
be reworked once applied?
• How fast does the material
dry (cure)?
• How rigid or
flexible is the material?
• What type of process and
equipment is necessary to achieve the required coating
quality (uniformity and repeatability)?
• Price of the material.
• Quality of the material
Argo Transdata can help determine the
proper coating for your application.
