Benefits to Your Organization:

  1. Protection from the elements
  2. Higher sales from attractive packaging
  3. Increased user-friendliness through ergonomics
  4. Extended life-span of the product

Helping you solve your electronic packaging needs:

  • Do you need to protect an electronic product with an enclosure made of plastic, sheet metal, or some other material? We have electrical packaging experience with many different materials.
  • Do you have a heat dissipation problem? We have designed EMI tight enclosures with custom aluminum extrusions to solve this problem.
  • Are style and ergonomic design especially important to you? We can help by creating renderings using Solidworks® with backgrounds and lighting.
  • Do you need prototypes or limited production? We use cast urethane parts produced with very low-cost tooling which closely mimics injection-molded plastics with great finishes and textures.
  • Do you need injection molding and vacuum forming for plastic parts? We have extensive experience in this area.

Miniaturized Electronics

Electronics today require smaller and smaller packaging, forcing the use of High Density Interconnect (HDI) technology. What this means is circuit board components are stacked tight side by side allowing no room for interconnecting traces on the outer layers. This is done by using multi-layer circuit boards, tiny laser drilled micro vias are used to connect from the component pad down to the next inner layer where all the interconnected routing takes place. Additionally, rigid-flex PCBs are used so the board can be folded to include connectors and reduce the physical size even more.

You typically see this miniaturized electronics in cell phones and electronics of similar construction. HDI makes the development and debugging process very difficult. In addition heat dissipation must be watched closely due to the tight spacing of all the electronic components.

Matrix has been using this technology for years in an in-vitro medical product where size is extremely important to the patient experience. If you need work done with miniaturized electronics, contact Matrix and allow Ron Pulvermacher to explain why using Matrix Product Development Design is the best option.

An electrical packaging success story

A customer came to us with this requirement:

Problem: "It's imperative we have EMI tight sheet metal enclosures for three circuit board assemblies in two weeks. We need 3D modeling in SolidWorks® along with a complete set of detailed drawings and a prototype in only two weeks. Can you do it?"

Matrix Solution: We stepped up to the plate and modeled 74 parts and created 28 drawings of sheet metal enclosures, EMI gaskets, and circuit boards. We also supplied a completely functional prototype with all drawings in a record two-week period. This is the type of commitment you can expect from Matrix Product Development!

Matrix Product Development does 3D modeling and visual renderings:

Solidworks®-3D modeling is used for creating custom plastic parts, aluminum extrusion heat sinks, and sheet metal parts.

Photoworks is used for model rendering with background scenes, material surfaces, and external lighting effects. Shadows and mirrors can also be added.
