Form in Place gasketing is an excellent alternative for your applications that use die-cut gaskets, O-rings, or hand cut and applied extruded cord stock gaskets. With a Form in Place gasket you no longer need to waste time aligning a die-cut gasket, or chasing an O-ring into position, or having to cut, apply, and carry excess inventory of extruded cord stock. Our Form in Place gasket is dispensed and cured into position so that you can assemble and disassemble your enclosure as needed.
Our process of Form in Place gasketing (FIP) is done using a 3-axis or 4-axis robot that dispenses the silicone elastomer onto your parts gasket path which has been programmed into the robots by our experienced operators. We carry a variety of silicone elastomers in stock for your Conductive and Nonconductive gasket sealing needs. If the silicone elastomers we care in stock do not meet your needs we will work with you to find a suitable solution to help seal and protect your electronic application.
The Form in Place silicone elastomer can be dispensed on to injection molded plastics, machined plastic enclosures, machined metal enclosures, and even most rapid prototype enclosures.
