The thermally conductive filler package may be present in an amount of 15% by volume percent to 90% by volume based on total volume of the composition. The present invention also is directed to a method for treating a substrate and to substrates comprising a layer formed from a composition disclosed herein.

A method for producing a component includes incorporating a molding compound into a tool for producing the component, where the molding compound includes an artificial resin as a matrix and a filler material embedded in the matrix. The method includes compressing the molding compound by the tool and by the compressing forming the molding compound to a green product. The method further includes providing the green product while disposed in the tool with a layer in a sub-region by incorporating a liquid material for producing the layer into the tool and applying the liquid material to the sub-region. The liquid material is a metallic material and the layer is an electromagnetic shielding on the green product.

A lightning strike protection material for an aircraft includes an electrically-conductive grid with grid-forming members and nodes where grid-forming members overlap or intersect. A plurality of the grid-forming members and/or nodes include an outward-facing surface, and at least a portion of the outward-facing surface is concave.

An apparatus for forming pre-shaped insulating sheets comprises a first bending station and a second bending station. The first bending station is used for bending a flat sheet of insulating material into a Z-shaped sheet (5). The second bending station is used for bending the Z-shaped sheet into an S-shape. The first and second bending stations comprise pairs of first (13a, 13b) and second bending operators for creating bending movements.

Systems and methods for forming insulation on magnet wire are provided. An extruder that includes one or more rotating screws may receive a thermoset polymeric material and process the thermoset polymeric material to increase its pressure and temperature. An extrusion crosshead assembly in fluid communication with the extruder may receive the thermoset polymeric material and press extrude the thermoset polymeric material as insulation onto a magnet wire. A curing device may then cure the extruded insulation material.

A method for producing a media-tight material composite, in particular comprising a metal solid body and an optionally electrically insulating plastic at least partially surrounding the solid body, preferably as a component of a preferably shielded electrical interface, wherein surfaces of the solid body that the plastic contacts are subjected to a surface pretreatment in order to promote the adhesion of the plastic to the solid body. The disclosure further relates to a cylindrical metal sleeve, in particular as part of a plug connector, and a plug connector or sensory comprising a metal sleeve, produced by the foregoing method.

In one example, an apparatus for jointing power cables includes a mold extending along a longitudinal axis, and having a feeding inlet and being made of two halves forming a longitudinal pass-through seat for receiving the cables. An extruder is connected to the feeding inlet. A heating system and a cooling system is associated with the mold. A measuring system for detecting temperature or pressure includes a plurality of probes for detecting temperature or pressure.

A system and method for forming electrical devices via additive manufacturing processes that utilize starting materials that are in a solid state at least prior to, as well as after, the formation of the electrical device. A first solid starting material can be configured to form one or more insulator layers of the electrical device, while another solid starting material can be applied to form one or more electrically conductive layers. The starting materials canbe applied layer-by-layer during formation of the electrical device such that the electrically conductive layers can become automatically embedded within the insulating layers, and vice versa. The additive manufacturing process(es) utilized to form the electrically conductive layers from solid starting materials can be different than the additive manufacturing process(es) utilized to form the insulator layers.
