“ for CIP(Cured-in-place) Gasket ”
Water-proof
Gap correction
Cushioning

Anti-dust

Functions
Water-proofing, Dust-proofing, Cushioning, Vibration dampening,
Stress relief (gap correction, backlash fixing)
Noise reductionchatter noise, collision noise
Alternative to traditional gaskets made of rubber or foamed material

Some Applications
Precision devices, Cellphones, Digital Cameras, Camcorders, Tablet PC,
Handy terminals and various mobile appliances.

Features
1) High designing flexibility
The GEL is cured with ultraviolet (UV) light while robotically being traced onto a part in
accordance with the data electrically designed using the computer aided (CAD) system.
This eliminates the conventional die-molding process and provides high flexibility in
designing the gasket pattern.

2) Reduction of cost and lead time
The CIP (Cured-In-Place) Gasket process reduces the cost for the die preparation and the
loss generated by the manual fitting of parts. This enables one to reduce the cost as well as the
lead time.

3) Ease of down-sizing
The UV-curable gel can be easily processed into gaskets for various parts smaller and thinner
compared with the rubber-based and form-based gasket processing. This facilitates to downsize the final products.

4) Softness and low hardness
Compared with the manually fitted gasket, softer gasket with ultra-low hardness can be easily
fabricated in the CIP process using the UV-curable gel.

5) Short curing time
UV cure αGEL reaches its final hardness in 100-300mW/cm² x 10-30 seconds in order to
reduce production time.
