A new overmolding machine

In its quest to continually improve the quality of the solutions it offers its customers, EKTRO recently acquired a new overmolding machine.

Is this investment worthwhile ? We'll tell you everything!

A quick reminder: overmolding is a technique that involves molding a finished product.

In the case of EKTRO, overmolding provides connectors that are completely dustproof and/or protected against liquid splashes (water, grease, etc.). Specializing in low-pressure overmolding (between 1 and 40 bars), EKTRO precisely “coats” parts to protect, insulate, and above all, provide solid, durable, compact, and attractive solutions.

A quick reminder: overmolding is a technique that involves molding a finished product. Our first investments in 2020

Since 2020, EKTRO has equipped itself with high-performance machining equipment in order to design custom molds and thus be able to meet the most specific demands of its customers and offer them 100% personalized solutions.

The ultimate goal is always to provide a real service to our partners, who can now benefit from both EKTRO’s expertise in harness manufacturing and foolproof protection for their connectors.

Yes, but what else does this new machine offer?

Users agree that this machine is a real step forward in several ways!

Firstly, the quality and durability of the parts is even better! Operators have gained greater control because it is now possible to manage the pressure thanks to manual pressure filling rather than gravity filling as was previously the case. The overmolding is even more reliable, and the icing on the cake is that we have gained in technicality with easier implementation.

This means fewer reworks and a real time saving!

This investment also makes work much more comfortable for operators. The machine is much more ergonomic and easier to handle. It is safe to use, which considerably reduces the risk of incidents or accidents. Finally, the crucial step of demolding is now easier, which means that much less demolding agent is required.

In short, this machine has it all! Quality finished products, ergonomics and safety for users, and increased productivity!
