Q.
What material is used in your molding process?
A.
Elenger Industries molds all of its cases using Diallyl
Phthalate; more commonly referred to as DAP. It is a short-glass
reinforced thermoset. The grade utilized meets MIL-M-14
Type SDG-F. In addition it has a UL Flammability Rating
of 94V-0 at both 1/8 and 1/16 thickness. It
is available in black or green.
Q. If I dont see the size Im looking for,
wont a new mold take longer and cost more?
A. Our
lead-time on new items is 3 weeks or less and our tooling
costs are significantly lower than other suppliers.
Q. Im working on a quote with only an end print.
Do I need a print for you to quote an encapsulation shell?
A. Truthfully
- No. We have provided quotes from simple sketches, end
prints and end product samples. In the end, a print of
what we would be manufacturing is preferred, but with
our experience, we can assist you in the design process
of the encapsulation that you need.
Q. Im involved in a brand new project. Do you do
any type of prototyping?
A. Yes,
we can provide prototype runs on new items.
Q. How does sandblasting help with my potting process?
A. Sandblasting
provides a rough finish to the interior of the case. There
are some potting materials that adhere better to the walls
of the case when they are sandblasted.
Q. Do you carry stock on your standard
parts?
A. Sorry,
but no. We manufacture all parts as they are ordered.
This allows for easier tracking of specific lots. However,
our lead-time on standard and modified parts is 2 weeks
or less.
Q. Do
you have minimum ordering requirements?
A. Well, yes. But, we are happy to fulfill any quantity
with a small set-up charge.
