Potting and Encapsulation
Potting and encapsulating are two of the most popular applications for Fluid Research® Corporation’s multi-component dispensing equipment. It is a common belief that everything in this world either contains a potted/encapsulated part or was made from a machine that contains a potted/encapsulated part.
What is the potting process?
Potting is the process of environmental protection by pouring a hardenable polymeric material into an electronic device, totally submersing and protecting the internal parts. The outer shell of the device holds the potting compound in place until it hardens.
What is the encapsulation process?
Encapsulation requires a mold in which the device is to be protected are placed, after which the hardenable polymeric material is injected to completely fill the mold. The device then takes on the shape after the compound hardens.
