Vacuum impregnation enables metal and electronics parts of vehicles to be fully sealed against fluids, gases and other external influences and ensures they are ready for just-in-time assembly. After impregnation, all parts are clean, free of corrosion or oxidation, and are ready for use without post-treatment. LOCTITE vacuum impregnation solutions provide resins that cure to an impermeable thermoset polymer. This makes it possible to permanently seal pores or leakpaths to enable quality lightweight, thin-walled die-casted parts or electronic components.
With an unmatched portfolio of LOCTITE products and our fully automated vacuum impregnation system, we can ensure that you no longer face the negative effects of porosities, such as cost of scrapping, loss of production, dissatisfied customers or even lost business. Our state-of-the-art impregnation technology gives you a permanent and reliable sealing solution to the problems of porosities and leakages.
We offer a number of different service locations to our customers and you can choose from the following options below.
A variety of equipment options are available for casting impregnation, including the LOCTITE Circular Sealing System, the LOCTITE Modular Sealing System and the ability to create customizable equipment, based on customer needs and specifications.
LOCTITE Circular Sealing System
Well suited for high-volume, fully automated impregnation solutions, the LOCTITE Circular Impregnation System functions in five steps, beginning with parts placed in processing baskets and positioned in the CIS loading station.
LOCTITE Modular Sealing System
Offers production flexibility at an affordable investment price. Can function as a manual system or fully automated robotic system.
Microscopic voids are inherent in many electronic assemblies, particularly where metals and plastics are assembled together. Our resin solutions seal even microscopic gaps and leak paths in critical electrical and electronic components, permanently sealing them from moisture, solvents, fluxes and other corrosive agents.
