Support for Controlled Dispensing and Potting Programs
Potting protects electrical connector cavities and related electronic assemblies by dispensing a sealing material around wires, terminals, conductors, or internal components. Once cured, the material can help block moisture and contaminants, stabilize components, reduce movement, provide strain relief, and improve resistance to vibration, thermal cycling, and chemical exposure.
Forest City Technologies can support controlled dispensing and potting programs using material systems selected for the connector design and operating environment. Successful potting depends on factors such as material flow, adhesion, cure profile, cavity geometry, fill level, air management, component compatibility, and production cycle requirements.
- Backshell and terminal cavity potting
- Wire and cable entry protection
- Encapsulation of sensitive electrical components
- Strain relief and component stabilization
- Protection from automotive fluids, moisture, dust, and vibration
- Production dispensing for repeatable fill and cure
