The environment essentially defines the need for coating. "Inside" may mean inside a men's locker room with attendant high humidity or inside a climate-controlled clean environment. Conformal coatings offer protection against moisture, fungus, chemi

We are producing boards with Alpha 591S RMA No-Clean paste and are coating after SMC with Dow silicone ( toluene solvent based) conformal coating. We have experienced several failures due to soft shorts ( electrochemical migration?) We have also obse

Some UV cure coatings do not have the correct rheology for sticking to small sharp corners. 984 is one of them. MicroCoat Technologies, Allen, TX makes one that works every time.

We are looking at switching to UV cure for faster throughput. Does anyone know of any cost effective coating manufacturers? The pricing we are getting back are around $250.00 a gallon in 5 gal pails. This is more than twice what we pay for our curren

Dave, Few questions concerning your Umiseal 1B73. To cure your Acrylic coating do you respect specification ( 2Hrs-170degree F) or you go faster than that? What do you use to cure it? Do you have to clean your nozzles each day or each monday beca

I use conformal coating DYMAX #984-LVUF and I don't know if it's a problem of viscosity but 0805 components are not covered properly. We use a dispensor to applied it and we cured it by UV. Even if I apply a thicker layer, the coating seems to have

Hello, I want to make a simple conformal coating machine, I think in a Cartesian robot with MACH3 software. My questions are about the G-Code for the program (the software to design: % open/close nozzle, the paths (trajectory), import the pcb fi

I haven't used this particular CC, but...found this in their data sheet: "AVR 80 BA Conformal Coating will be touch dry after 15 - 20 minutes at room temperature and does not require a thermal cure. The full properties of the coating will be obtaine

There are factors that manufacturers have taken into consideration when dealing with coating. On/off times, dispense speeds, heights, etc.. Dedicated software with tools to easily map out paths are a godsend. We made our own coating machine with a s
