Built for Harsh Environments

Overview

Pro-Active Engineering applies conformal coating to protect PCBs and electronic substrates from moisture, thermal shock, static, vibration, and contamination, while preserving electronic function. These coatings extend the lifespan of electronics in extreme environments by preventing dendritic growth and metal electromigration between conductors. We apply spray coating for uniform coverage across complex, high-density assemblies, and encapsulation and potting for builds that need environmental isolation or mechanical reinforcement.

Conformal Coating Capabilities

Protection and reinforcement built into the same workflow as your assembly.

  • Spray Coating & Encapsulation

    Spray coating for uniform coverage across complex, high-density assemblies. Encapsulation and potting for builds that need environmental isolation or mechanical reinforcement.

  • Material Selection

    Material selection support (epoxies, urethanes, and acrylics) matched to your environmental exposure and performance requirements.

  • Surface Prep & Masking

    Masking, surface preparation, and plasma cleaning to ensure coating adhesion.

  • Inspection & Verification

    UV trace inspection to verify coverage and edge definition across the finished coating.

  • Material Expertise

    High-quality materials designed for durability and optimal performance.

  • Quality Assurance & Testing

    Strict testing processes to ensure reliability and compliance.

  • Scalable Production

    Flexible manufacturing from prototyping to high-volume production.

Why Pro-Active Engineering for Conformal Coating

  • One Integrated Workflow

    Coating happens in the same production line as your assembly, not handed off to a separate vendor.

  • Engineering-Led Material Selection

    Material choice matched to your program’s environmental exposure and performance needs, not a one-size-fits-all coating.

  • Inspected to the Same Standard

    UV trace inspection and the same quality process that governs the rest of your build.

  • Certified Quality

    ISO 9001:2015, JCP certified and ITAR registered, with full material traceability and serialization carried through coating and final inspection.
