For waterproofing, dustproofing, and insulation of electrical components. The spotlight is on the sealing technology "Hot Melt Molding." Complete sealing of electrical components is achieved in just a few seconds.
"Complete sealing of electrical components in just a few dozen seconds. Ideal for waterproofing, dustproofing, and insulation!" Hot melt molding, which is gaining attention for waterproof sealing of electrical components, uses thermoplastic adhesives in low-pressure insert molding to achieve environmental protection such as waterproofing and dustproofing for electrical components like mounted circuit boards. Compared to traditional two-component potting and conformal coating, sealing is completed in an extremely short time, leading to an expansion in its adoption as a sealing technology. Now, at Matsumoto Processing Lab, nine hot melt molding machines are installed, and you can observe the process of hot melt sealing electrical components. Customers wishing to visit are encouraged to inquire.

Sustainable electrical component sealing technology "Hot Melt Molding." Suitable for waterproofing and insulation of electrical components. Achieves complete sealing in a short time.
"Complete sealing of electrical components in just a few dozen seconds. Ideal for waterproofing, dustproofing, and insulation!" Hot melt molding, which is gaining attention for waterproof sealing of electrical components, uses thermoplastic adhesives in low-pressure insert molding to achieve environmental protection such as waterproofing and dustproofing for electrical components like mounted circuit boards. Compared to traditional two-component potting and conformal coating, sealing is completed in an extremely short time, leading to its expanded adoption as a sealing technology. Additionally, due to the following features, it is also gaining attention as a sustainable sealing method: - The hot melt we handle is a solvent-free, one-component hot melt made primarily from plant-derived natural fatty acids. - The process does not require heating during the curing process, making it an energy-efficient operation. Now, at the Matsumoto Processing Lab, nine hot melt molding machines are installed, and it is possible to observe the actual process of hot melt sealing of electrical components. Customers interested in observing are encouraged to inquire.
