Platinum-Cured Silicone Gaskets for Medical Devices

Platinum-cured silicone gaskets are used in medical devices that require ultra-pure, ultra-clean materials. JBC can die cut platinum-cured silicones for medical wearables and wired or wireless devices where a die cut silicone gasket may touch human skin or require repeated sterilization.

Medical Seals and Gaskets: Die Cut Products for Medical Electronics

Medical seals and gaskets protect medical electronics from a host of hazards that can jeopardize patient health and safety. In this article, part of a series from JBC Technologies, we’ll examine three applications for die cut products in medical electronics.

Medical Device Seals and Gaskets: What Designers Need to Know About Materials

Medical device seals and gaskets are die cut from medical silicones, PORON foams, and other specialized materials. In this article from JBC Technologies, we’ll present an overview of what medical device designers need to consider during material selection. What's the right choice for your application?

ITW Formex® Materials: Properties, Processing, Products, and Applications

ITW Formex materials are flame retardant, electrically insulating, and chemically resistant. They're used in 3D printers, HVAC, electronics, automotive, and LED lighting. JBC Technologies can source, laminate, and die cut ITW Formex materials. Lamination can provide EMI shielding and dissipate ESD.

Thermal Interface Materials: Graphite Gaskets

Graphite gaskets are thermal interface materials (TIMs) that are used in computers, lighting, power electronics and other systems that generate excess heat. They create a thermal path from a heat-generating component to a heat sink. Learn more about die cut graphite gaskets from JBC Technologies.

Slug Removal for Die Cutting: How In-Line De-Slugging Adds Value

Slug removal or de-slugging removes the cut-outs from die-cut shapes. Manual slug removal adds labor costs, extends project timelines, and can cause quality control issues. In-line slug removal for die-cutting promotes efficiency and adds value. Learn more about de-slugging from JBC Technologies.
