IDI Composites Supplies High Performance Thermosets for Allied Moulded Electrical Casings
(Archive News Story - Products mentioned in this Archive News Story may or may not be available from the manufacturer.)
NOBLESVILLE, INDIANA (USA) - IDI Composites International, the premier global formulator and manufacturer of thermoset molding compounds, announces that its Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) and Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) have been selected by Allied Moulded Products, Inc. to be used in the company's NEMA-grade electrical and electronic equipment enclosures. These enclosures must withstand highly corrosive environments, such as chemical and wastewater treatment plants, as well as the impact of harsh weather conditions when housed outdoors, such as on golf courses and sporting fields. The enclosures must also demonstrate superior structural rigidity and strength, as well as good electrical insulation properties.
IDI's SMC and BMC are much less expensive than traditional enclosure materials, such as stainless steel, making them an ideal replacement for metals. Furthermore, thermoset components are up to 35% lighter than steel parts of equal strength, helping to reduce costs associated with transportation.
The composite materials also offer many other benefits for Allied's outdoor products, including ballistic resistance, for protection against damage from rocks or sports equipment; UV-resistance; and molded-in color, allowing the enclosures to easily blend into their environment.
