Consumer
SMC and BMC materials combine durability, electrical and thermal insulation, radio-transparency, and the capability to be fire retardant. Also, parts in SMC and BMC can be manufactured in large volume series at high quality consistency levels. As a result, they are an excellent choice for many consumer applications, often replacing complex metal assemblies with a single composite part.
Typical applications
- Iron heat shields
- Coffee machine components
- Microwave ware
- White goods components, grips and handles
- Pump and motor housings (metal substitution)
- Sport equipment, golf caddy
- Safety products (professional and leisure)
The SMC BMC Alliance has defined multiple SMC and BMC standard product profiles, which provide you with a clear overview of the materials’ performance and physical properties for these applications. Detailed design files, with information about material flow, warpage, and PVT-C dependency are available in .mtx format for easy upload into your design simulation software.
