The story:
Krayden partnered with a company specializing in inverter boxes for the EV market. They wanted to complete the project in house instead of outsourcing and needed recommendations from a Krayden technical representative.
What is the application? | The customer was looking to pot an inverter box for the EV market. They decided to do in house instead of outsourcing. Suggested 3-4207 tough gel from Dow. Instead of selling dual cartridges and manually dispense, it was suggested to use meter mix equipment to offer high throughput and long term reliability with an accurate amount of dispensed material. |
What issues was the end-user having? | They needed a potting material with good dielectric and higher shock and vibration performance. |
What material was used to solve the issue? | Krayden solved the issue by suggesting DOW 3-4207 Tough Gel and recommended an automated piece of equipment from Techcon to make the dispensing of the material easier and more reliable. |
Why did this material work better than other materials? | Other products will work, but this one has a rich history of success and gives room for cost reduction. |
Was this material lower cost than other materials? | Higher throughput and less manual process for better yields and higher reliability of the amount of material being dispensed. |
Did this material improve the process? | Yes |
Savings to end-users in the cost of material or process improvement? Time, $ or both? | Replaced manual labor with an automated process. |
What industry/market was this material used in? | EV |
