Tech-Etch has introduced SlimShield, a low-profile, two-piece board level shielding line with a dimpled cover that snaps into etched holes on the fence and offers shield heights as low as 1,5 mm.
According to the manufacturer, its photo etching process provides complete design freedom and fast delivery. Standard dimple tooling offers variable dimple location with excellent cover retention at low cost, with no tooling cost on standard two-piece designs. An optional flange for added rigidity is available on larger fence designs. Multi-cavity designs are achieved by incorporating internal fences enabling multiple components to be shielded with the same part.
Mounting pins are offered in any configuration. There is no additional cost for holes and slots for heat dissipation, as well as logos and part numbers. Tech-Etch also offers economical, standard one-piece designs with depth-etched bend lines for easy hand forming, as well as standard two-piece designs that utilise a spring-finger style attachment between fence and cover.
Custom designs are offered in a multitude of materials and shapes and product engineers can help customers develop the best design for their application.
