Peelable masking for conformal coating
Peelable masking for conformal coating
(OP)
We do conformal coating and have some pretty complicated masking to do prior to coating. This is currently all done manually. I am interested in looking into using a peelable mask. has anyone ever implemented an automated peelable mask system for this purpose before?





RE: Peelable masking for conformal coating
I'm guessing you are using some type of masking tape(hence the name) that is manually cut with an exacto knife and hand applied by a technician. If this is the case and the labor component is high, you might want to check out a company that does adhesive labels, that has die cut capabilities. The tooling is relatively inexpensive. I'm not sure what kind of volumes you are doing, but you can get labels printed and die cut, relatively inexpensively. I guess it depends on how much it's costing you to do it manually, figuring both straight labor cost, lost productivity and what other activities your technicians could be doing.
