EMI Gemini prevents moisture and dust ingress

Laird Technologies

EMI Gemini gasket

Laird Technologies has introduced the EMI Gemini multi-extrusion shielding gasket.

The EMI Gemini product line is a convergence of a thin, electrically conductive filler elastomer gasket layer and an inner, non-conductive silicone-coated core gasket.

The conductive material portion of the gasket - usually loaded with silver, aluminium, nickel or copper - is greatly reduced due to the substitution of the silicone core.

The reduction of the conductive material lowers the total cost.

Extruded in various sizes and profiles, the gasket retains strong EMI protection performance with a lower deflection while sealing against environmental influences such as moisture and dust.

The gasket is manufactured in parallel using a ram and/or screw-type extrusion equipment.

The extruder equipment incorporates a complex fixture that contains specific tools, depending on the profile.

This combination with the multi-extrusion of silicones in many applications optimises the performance-to-cost ratio to the fullest extent by leveraging material costs and extending the longevity of the assemblies.

The EMI Gemini product line is ideal for military, medical and commercial applications requiring application-specific high shielding requirements.
