Methods for Processing Formex Electrical Insulation

  • Die Cutting – Including steel rule, engraved, rotary and male/female dies.
  • Laser or Water Jet Cutting – Advancements in technology provide rapid prototyping as well as high-speed production.
  • Heat Forming – Low-cost tooling and a simple process combine to produce parts with permanently formed angles.
  • Thermoforming – Produces complex, rigid, three-dimensional shapes.
  • Machining – Materials are easily fabricated with conventional machining techniques.

Additional Processing

  • Marking – Materials may be embossed or printed to display product identification, part numbers, safety messages or technical information.
  • Lamination – Laminating with aluminum or copper foil provides EMI shielding and RFI shielding.
  • Adhesives – Formex™ readily accepts adhesives for various applications.
  • Welding – Formex™ can be bonded to itself using conventional welding techniques.
  • Joinery Methods – Parts can be easily designed to incorporate a number of joining and fastening methods, often eliminating external fasteners.
