Providing Quality Custom Conversion
for Conductive and Non-conductive Flexible Gasket Materials
EMI/RFI Shielding
PNA offers a wide range of EMI/RFI shielding materials. These materials are used to prevent radiation interference from reducing performance of electronic devices. These EMI/RFI gaskets have outstanding physical properties, including wide-operating temperatures, high chemical, fuel and solvent resistance and a long life for critical applications.Conductive O-Rings
EMI O-rings are electrically conductive gaskets that provide constant shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI), disturbances that can disrupt electronic components, modules, and systems.
Thermal Management Solutions
Thermal Gap Pads provide effective thermal interfaces between heat sinks and electronic devices, with accommodation for uneven surfaces, air gaps and rough textures. The thermally conductive pads’ soft construction offers high conformability to reduce interface resistance. In addition to effective heat dissipation, thermal Gap Pads help reduce vibration stress for shock dampening. Gap Pads are produced in a variety of hardness and thicknesses, and are fabricated to customers’ dimensional requirements. Thermal Gap Pad materials are always designed to your specific application to ensure optimized thermal control.
You Design It We Create it!
CAD Design
The initial step involves creating the design of the desired part or material using a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software. This design includes all necessary dimensions, tolerances, and specifications for the final product. The CAD file is typically saved in a format compatible with the CNC machine's control software (e.g., DXF, DWG, STEP, etc.)
Digital Zund Production
Our Digital Zund machine is a computer-controlled, flatbed cutting system known for its modular design, precision, and versatility. Essentially, it's a highly sophisticated and automated way to cut, score, and mark a wide variety of materials.
Quality Control
Our Keyence IM-8030 is an Image Dimension Measurement System designed for fast, accurate, and automated dimensional inspection of parts.
Industries
Defense
Today’s system requirements demand optimal performance in extremely harsh environments. Severe temperatures, EMI shielding requirements, fuel, and harsh chemicals can push the specification limits of commercially available materials. In response to these challenges, MIL-SPEC Gaskets and Seals manufactured from Silicone or Fluorosilicone, among other materials, can provide the specifications required to meet the performance demands of Defense applications.
Automotive/EV’s
Automotive and Electric Vehicles provide challenges for gaskets and seals. Environmental sealing, thermal management protection, EMI shielding, noise elimination, vibration and harshness are all issues encountered in Automotive design. Choosing the correct material for the application is critical for these design requirements. It must seal out water, dust, moisture, and road salt for proper ingress protection. PNA can assist in choosing the right materials for these design requirements.
Uncrewed Systems
Many Uncrewed Systems’ components need EMI shielding. Examples include the radio controller and the radio receiver, the flight computer that is connected to a telemetry radio, failsafe switch and the various servos or flight control actuators. EMI elastomers that use either Silicone or Fluorosilicone as the base elastomer and are sometimes filled with nickel-aluminum, nickel-graphite, silver-aluminum, silver-copper, silver-glass, and silver-nickel provide excellent shielding for the many components within an uncrewed system.
Electronics
EMI gaskets help to protect electronic devices and equipment against disruptions and disturbances caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Because these shielding gaskets are made of particle-filled silicones, they also provide environmental sealing and resist a wide range of service temperatures. Depending on the durometer, the base elastomer supports varying degrees of compression. The metal or metal-coated particles provide EMI shielding and electrical conductivity.
