Includes hard-coat anodizing, sandblasting, and precision polishing. We enhance ESD protection and wear resistance to ensure products comply with strict cleanroom standards.

How Can You Customize EMI Shielding Layers, Mesh, and Materials?

Our EMI shielding materials offer the highest flexibility in the industry, configurable for shielding effectiveness from 40dB to over 90dB+:

  • Layer Customization: Supports 1, 2, or 3 layers of composite mesh. More layers provide significantly higher shielding effectiveness.
  • Mesh Count: Extensive selection from 20 Mesh to 400 Mesh.
  • Metal Materials: Options include Red Copper, Brass, Stainless Steel, or Nylon Mesh.
  • Shielding Glass Carrier: Standard 4.5mm, with custom thickness available from 3mm to 7mm.
  • Shielding PET Carrier: Standard 1.5mm, with an ultra-thin 0.3mm option for high flexibility and lightweight applications.
  • Flexible Combinations: Mesh count, layers, and carrier thickness can be mixed and matched freely to optimize transparency and shielding ratios.

Note: Due to the nature of precision metal weaving, organic micro-wrinkles may occur on the mesh surface; this is a natural characteristic and does not compromise EMI shielding effectiveness.

How to Select the Right EMI Shielding Configuration for Your Semiconductor Tool

Follow these steps to determine the optimal combination of layers, mesh, and carrier for your specific EMI requirements.

Step 1 – Define Your Attenuation Target: Determine the minimum shielding effectiveness (e.g., 60dB, 90dB+) based on your equipment's EMI exposure.

Step 2 – Choose the Mesh Layer Count: For moderate shielding, 1 layer may suffice; for extreme high‑frequency noise, select 2 or 3 composite layers.

Step 3 – Pick the Mesh Count and Material: Higher mesh counts (100–400) block higher frequencies. Select copper for conductivity, stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

Step 4 – Select Carrier Type and Thickness: Use glass (3‑7mm) for observation windows; use PET (0.3‑1.5mm) for flexible, lightweight covers.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our EMI Shielding & CNC Machining
