Low pressure moulding is a manufacturing process used to encapsulate and protect electronic components, cables, and connectors. The process involves melting a thermoplastic material and injecting it into a mould at a low pressure and temperature, typically around 100-150°C and 3-10 bar. This ensures that the electronic components, cables, and connectors are not damaged during the encapsulation process. 

 

Low pressure moulding is used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and consumer electronics. It provides an efficient way to protect electronic components, cables, and connectors from environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and vibration.
