Conformal Coating Service

We provide professional conformal coating services (Acrílico / PU / Silicona / UV) to meet the long-term, stable operation requirements of industrial, automotor, and communication applications.

What Is PCB Conformal Coating?

PCB conformal coating is a thin polymer film applied to the surface of a printed circuit board (tarjeta de circuito impreso), typically ranging from 25 μm to 150 μm in thickness. It tightly conforms to the board and its components, forming a “custom-fit” protective layer—like an invisible armor that shields delicate circuitry from moisture, corrosion, and wear.

This coating is not an optional add-on but a core safeguard for electrical reliability. Whether in humid outdoor environments, oil-filled industrial workshops, or vibration-intense automotive engine bays, it effectively isolates environmental threats, preventing short circuits, component degradation, and other failures—significantly extending the product’s service life.

Core Advantages: Why Your PCB Must Have Conformal Coating

Comprehensive Environmental Protection
Effectively shields against moisture, condensation, salt spray, polvo, and chemical corrosives. Provides stable protection even in harsh environments such as maritime climates or industrial pollution zones.

Enhanced Electrical Performance
Improves circuit insulation, increases dielectric withstand voltage between conductors, and reduces leakage risks, ensuring stable high-frequency signal transmission.

Strengthened Mechanical Protection
Offers mechanical support to components, alleviates solder joint fatigue, and resists vibration, shock, and other physical damage—ideal for mobile devices, automotive applications, and other dynamic scenarios.

Supports Lean Manufacturing
Compatible with spraying, brushing, and dipping application methods. Some materials cure quickly at room temperature for high-volume production, while certain coatings allow easy rework and repair, reducing manufacturing costs.

Our Conformal Coating Processes

Spray Coating (Selective Coating):
Automated selective coating allows precise control over the coverage area, ensuring that only targeted regions receive the coating. Ideal for complex PCBs where certain components or areas must remain uncoated.

Dip Coating:
Suitable for PCBs with regular structures, dip coating ensures uniform coverage across the entire board. It is highly efficient for high-volume production while maintaining consistent quality.

Brush Coating (Manual Coating):
Provides targeted coating for small batches or specific areas that require additional protection. Perfect for prototypes, rehacer, or areas that automated equipment cannot reach.

Fully Automated Conformal Coating Line (Auto Coating Line):
Designed for large-scale industrial orders, this fully automated line combines speed, precisión, and consistency. It supports high-volume production while ensuring uniform coating quality across every PCB, meeting industrial and automotive standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How do I choose the most suitable conformal coating material?
A: Selection should consider three main factors—environment (use silicone for high temperatures, polyurethane for high humidity), maintenance requirements (acrylic for frequent rework), and cost budget (acrylic preferred for high-volume consumer products). We also offer a free application assessment service to help you choose.

Q2: Will the coating affect PCB heat dissipation or testing?
A: No. Our coatings are applied at a micron-level thickness, and some products include thermally conductive components, ensuring heat dissipation is not affected. Transparent formulations allow clear visibility of components, supporting online inspection and subsequent soldering operations.

Q3: Are your coatings environmentally compliant?
A: Yes. All products comply with the EU RoHS directive. Most are water-based, environmentally friendly formulations with zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ensuring safe production and environmental protection.
