Customized plastic profiles for electronics are a key component in the design of high-performance devices. Thanks to advanced plastic extrusion technology, Mavis produces tailor-made plastic profiles, ensuring tight tolerances, specific materials, and integrated functionalities. Accuracy and customization are essential to meet the needs of designers and manufacturers operating in advanced technological sectors.
Applications of custom electronic profiles
Plastic profiles for electronics are used in multiple applications, including:
- Protective gaskets for electrical panels and electronic devices to prevent dust and moisture infiltration.
- Cable ducts and guides in rack cabinets and control systems for organized and safe routing.
- LED profiles such as diffusers in polycarbonate or PMMA for technical lighting.
- Heat-dissipating profiles made from engineering polymers to manage heat generated by LED lamps.
- Electrical insulation and safety coverings for metal parts and sharp edges.
Technical features of plastic profiles for electronics
The custom plastic profiles for electronics produced through extrusion are designed to achieve an optimal combination of technical properties:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
