Apply tiny amounts of epoxy with absolute precision
With preforms as small as 0.89mm outside diameter and 0.28mm inside diameter, Nano-forms from Multi-Seals allow highly repeatable placement of minute amounts of epoxy with precision that is unattainable with traditional dispensing methods.
With dimensional tolerances as close as ±0.013mm for critical applications, Nano-forms can control epoxy volume to within 0.00002cc for a typical configuration. Exceptional repeatability is further promoted with closely controlled pre-mixed ratios of resin to catalyst. In addition, Nano-forms are not affected by pot life, so epoxy viscosity is consistent from beginning to end of production batch. This combination of precision and consistency makes Nano-forms ideal for sealing fibre-optics, subminiature switches, capacitors, diodes, LEDs, and other microminiature components.
Like other Uni-forms epoxy preforms, Nano-forms are pre-shaped, one-part resins that are solid at room temperature. When heated, Nano-forms melt and cure, forming a consistent seal that protects components from contaminants.
