Cost-effective Poron conductive fabric gaskets are ideal for liquid crystal display cushioning and EMI protection in handheld monitoring devices.

New from Laird Technologies are cost-effective Poron conductive fabric (PCF) gaskets for liquid crystal display (LCD) cushioning and EMI protection in handheld monitoring devices These gaskets are RoHS compliant EMI shields comprised of Rogers Poron and Laird Technologies' proprietary fabric and conductive adhesive

This combination creates an environment favourable to LCD cushioning and EMI security, for applications including mobile phones, PDAs, GPS receivers, barcode scanners and graphic tablets.

Laird Technologies' Poron conductive fabric gaskets reduce the number of needed parts and also eliminate the need for a high-cost stamping tool that traditionally slows down production lines.

The PCF gaskets help reduce customers' time to market while lowering costs.

The novel PCF design also reduces the weight of handheld products since it replaces the conventional metal stamping frame.

PCF gaskets can be die-cut specifically to fit underneath the LCD screen in handheld devices.

Likewise, standard roll sizes are 500mm wide by 50m long, with other sizes are available.
