Potting process (filling electronic components)

Role: Production Technology Manager

“The potting process is particularly sensitive: it involves filling operations that must be extremely precise, both in terms of volume and material distribution.”

Requirement

  • Accurate dosing of two-component resins
  • Control of dispensed volume and repeatability
  • Avoiding air inclusions and internal defects
  • Adaptability to different component geometries

“Even small variations in dosing could compromise the component’s performance.”

Solution implemented

  • High-precision dosing system for two-component materials
  • Integration with an automated part-handling system
  • Control of process parameters (flow rate, time, mixing)
  • Optimized filling strategies to avoid bubbles and discontinuities

“The most delicate part was defining the filling profile, not just the quantity.”

Results

  • High precision in the dispensed volume
  • Elimination of defects related to bubbles or incomplete filling
  • Greater reliability of the finished component
  • Stable and scalable process across multiple variants

“Today, the process is completely under control and allows us to guarantee very high quality standards.”
