Gentherm Selects Nordson ASYMTEK Equipment for Their Conformal Coating Lines
March 20, 2019 | Nordson ASYMTEKEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Nordson ASYMTEK, a Nordson company, was selected by Gentherm as their conformal coating equipment supplier. Gentherm is the global market leader and developer of innovative thermal management technologies. They were introducing new products to their manufacturing line and needed a conformal coating system that could meet production requirements. The new equipment needed to provide more selectivity, accuracy, and increased volume capabilities than was required for previous product builds. After evaluating suppliers, Gentherm selected Nordson ASYMTEK's Select Coat SL-940 conformal coating system for their conformal coating line.
"After reviewing Nordson ASYMTEK's equipment specifications and applicator options, we decided to purchase the Select Coat SL-940E conformal coating system based on the following capabilities: more coating flexibility with the SC-300 applicator, tighter control around keep-out areas with the SC-400 applicator, and user friendly, programmable software," commented Mike Renneboog, Manufacturing Manager at Gentherm Electronics.
Gentherm uses five SL-940 conformal coating systems, equipped with SC-300, SC-350, and SC-400 applicators, that are used in four manufacturing lines. The systems support the production of automotive modules, RV controls, medical devices, and other consumer electronic controls. Nordson ASYMTEK's equipment has enabled Gentherm to overcome manufacturing challenges and has added more flexibility and yield to their manufacturing processes. The SL-940 conformal coating systems offer a wide variety of options to provide the highest quality and productivity for automated coating processes. The systems operate at high-speed, high-accuracy, high-productivity, and yield, offering the ultimate solution to conformal coating production.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
