Our Capability: Application, Cleaning & Curing
Every step of our liquid conformal coating services is engineered for precision, repeatability, and compliance. We adapt our processes to meet your exact requirements.
Application Methods
- Dip coating – uniform 360° coverage with controlled dwell/withdrawal
- Batch spray – flexible and ideal for prototypes or mixed lots
- Masking (boots, tapes, 3D parts), de-masking, touch-up, depanel, and packaging
Cleaning & Surface Preparation
- Aqueous or solvent cleaning matched to coating chemistry
- Ionic contamination testing (ROSE/IC) for cleanliness assurance
- Surface energy checks to confirm adhesion readiness
- Primer treatments where required to improve reliability
Curing & Thermal Control
- UV curing and ambient cure workflows
- Convection ovens with logged cure profiles
- Stable environments controlling viscosity, temperature, and humidity
Coating Materials We Apply
We apply a wide range of liquid conformal coatings and nano coatings to meet performance, cost, and compliance requirements. Our team can advise on the most suitable chemistry for your design.
- Acrylic (AR): cost-effective, fast cure, easy rework
- Polyurethane (UR): excellent toughness and chemical resistance
- Silicone (SR): flexible across extreme temperatures
- UV-cure systems: ultra-fast processing with secondary cure as needed
- Low-VOC and solvent-based options: aligned with regulatory requirements
- Nano coatings: ultra-thin hydrophobic/oleophobic barriers
Not sure which coating fits? Our team will assess your environment, reliability targets, and budget before recommending the best option.
Quality Control & Standards
We align every project to IPC-A-610 Class 3 and IPC-CC-830 standards, backed by ISO-certified processes.
Inspection & Test
- Film thickness verification (wet/dry) for accuracy
- Adhesion testing (cross-hatch/tape)
- 100% UV/white-light inspection
- Audit-ready records supplied on request
Compliance
- Certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001
- Full ESD compliance maintained
- Risk assessments with traceable documentation
Process Control
- Controlled viscosity, temperature, and humidity
- Recipe monitoring with logged cure profiles
- End-to-end operator and material traceability
Our stable processes deliver high yields, low rework, and fast turnaround—keeping your manufacturing on schedule.
📚 FAQs on Conformal Coating Services
Do you apply nano coatings as well as liquids?
Yes — we apply both. In fact, nano coatings are particularly well-suited for ultra-thin protection on miniaturised PCBs, where traditional liquid coatings may be too thick.
Can you help with coating material selection?
Absolutely. We work closely with customers to balance cost, rework requirements, and environmental performance.As a result, you get a coating that meets both technical and commercial objectives.
What cleanliness level is required?
We target very low ionic contamination levels. Before coating, our team verifies adhesion readiness using surface energy and wettability checks, ensuring consistent results.
How are keep-out areas handled?
Keep-out areas are protected using validated masking strategies — including boots, tapes, and custom fixtures. Each masking setup is confirmed before production release to guarantee proper sealing and coverage control.
