Les manettes de jeu Cinch bénéficient d'une prise en main améliorée
Cinch Gaming, a national leader in custom professional video game controllers, was looking for a durable solution to provide a rubber grip coating to their ABS plastic controller shells.
Challenge
Find a material that provided a less sticky, more textured, grabby surface for gaming controllers.
Over-the-counter rubber and adhesive products didn't sufficiently bond to ABS materials enough to provide both a durable and tactile solution. Because gamers can use game controllers for extended periods of time, Cinch needed a product that could not only withstand extended use, but provide a comfortable and tactile grip experience as well. Our Dymax Application Engineers recommended using a light-curable maskant to replace the current laser weld process.
Solution
The SpeedMask® resin had excellent adhesion to the controllers and provided the non-sticky, textured feel the customer needed. An SG-100-RH spray gun and a BlueWave LED Flood completed the system.
The Dymax Application Engineering team recommended several light-curable coatings that would provide a strong bond with ABS plastic materials. Ultimately, a SpeedMask® resin was selected as the coating of choice because it was able to provide good “grip” without being sticky. A Dymax SG-100-RH spray gun was selected to apply the coating. This resulted in additional benefits as it allowed for the coating to be dispensed in a type of splatter pattern that created a more secure grip-like texture that gamers prefer. A Dymax BlueWave® LED Flood System was selected to cure the coating because it could cure it in a matter of seconds without risking damage to the surface of the controller.
Résultats
The Dymax system solution enabled the customer to get a durable and tactile grip that is now being offered as an option on all Cinch controllers.
