Automated Potting System for Electronics: Precision and Efficiency in Assembly Protection

The automated potting system developed by Simprop electronic Walter Claas GmbH & Co. KG provides a reliable solution for encapsulating electronic assemblies with a two-component polyurethane compound. This process shields electronics from dust and moisture, ensuring long-term protection and durability. The system integrates advanced dosing and mixing technology, significantly reducing manual intervention while improving accuracy and efficiency.

What is the Application?

The system automates potting in electronic assemblies by mixing and dispensing polyurethane compounds into housing units. Components are stored, tempered, and vacuumed, followed by precise dosing through a mixing tube for consistent encapsulation.

What are the Advantages of the Solution?

• Reduced Manual Labor: Automation cuts workstation activity by 60%.

• Improved Process Safety: Sensory monitoring eliminates operational errors.

• Efficient Data Tracking: Integrated production data logs every step for analysis and maintenance planning.

What are the Advantages of the Robot?

The robotic automation within the potting system delivers:

• High Precision: Exact mixing ratios ensure consistent results.

• Reliability: Streamlined processes minimize human error.

• Optimization: Integrated systems identify bottlenecks and enable process improvements.
