RFI/EMI/ESD Shielding

Consolidated Coating Company specializes in the application of RFI/EMI/ESD coatings onto a variety of plastic substrates to contain emissions within the equipment onto which the parts are assembled. RFI/EMI shielding effectively blocks the high and low frequency emissions many times caused by electronic/electrical devices. Industrial equipment, electronic enclosures, medical equipment, computer housings, electrical instruments, power supplies are some examples of products that could require this type of shielding.

  • Radio frequency and electromagnetic radiation can be emitted from devices and shielding contains these emissions within the device so that interference with the operation of other electronic devices is eliminated.
  • Consolidated Coating Company applies copper acrylics, nickel acrylics, and silver plated acrylics to a wide array of plastic resins, e.g. ABS, PC, ABS/PC blends, Kydex, PPO, PPE.
  • Shielding is performed to customer specifications. It is applied to internal surfaces with masking to prevent overspray onto customer visible surfaces or applied to external surfaces with a decorative coating overlay.
  • Depending on the volume of parts, masking can be accomplished by hand using appropriate materials or masking can be accomplished using custom made electro formed tooling which allows for absolutely repeatability in the masking features.
