Plastic With Silicone Overmolding Manufacturing

Project Background and Customer Needs

A well-known high-end electronic product manufacturer wanted to customize a durable, lightweight and comfortable shell for its new smart device. The customer required the shell to have excellent protection and provide a unique texture, while ensuring the assembly accuracy of precision parts in a complex structure.

• The customer's requirement is to use plastic as the main material, but in order to improve the durability and protection of the shell, they want to add a layer of silicone on the outer layer, which can increase the anti-fall and anti-slip effect. At the same time, the shape of the device shell is complex, requiring very high precision and seamless integration.

• We use advanced silicone plastic processing technology combined with professional mold design to provide customers with solutions that meet their needs. Through precise injection molding and silicone coating technology, we ensure that the silicone layer is perfectly integrated with the plastic substrate, not only achieving the expected protection performance, but also maintaining a comfortable feel.

Our Solution

• Material selection:We chose medical-grade high-softness silicone, which not only meets medical standards but also has excellent flexibility and comfort. At the same time, we worked with suppliers to customize a highly conductive plastic to ensure its perfect combination with silicone.

• Process development:We developed a special injection molding process for the combination of silicone and plastic. Through multiple trials and adjustments, we optimized the injection molding parameters to ensure that the silicone can completely cover the plastic without any bubbles or delamination.

• Sample testing:After the initial success, we made a batch of samples and worked with medical companies to conduct rigorous performance tests. These tests include long-term wear tests, signal conduction tests, and biocompatibility tests. The results show that our products perform well in all tests.

• Mass production:Based on the successful sample testing, we further improved the production process and put it into mass production. We have established a strict quality control process, and each batch of products is fully inspected to ensure that every ECG monitoring patch that leaves the factory meets the highest standards.

Results and Conclusion

Through our efforts, the medical company successfully launched a new ECG monitoring patch. This product has not only been well received by doctors and patients, but also achieved excellent sales performance in the market. The leadership of the medical company highly praised our professional ability and cooperative attitude, and expressed their willingness to continue to cooperate with us in the future to develop more innovative medical products.

This successful product development story demonstrates our professional ability and innovative spirit in the silicone + FPC process. As a professional silicone product custom processing manufacturer, we will continue to be committed to providing customers with high-quality and innovative solutions and contribute our strength to the development of the medical industry.
