Plastic components in the electronics industry
Electronic components are used in many areas of modern life. Most of these components consist of assemblies that are protected from the environment by their enclosures. For example, delicate sensors have a screen to prevent breakage. Other electronic components are protected against splash water and similar threats by placing them inside a housing. The sensitive electronics used in many valves are protected against impacts by a plastic case. This is often tested by carrying out a fall or drop test.
