I. Introduction

With the booming development of the 3C (computer, communication, and consumer electronics) industry, electronic devices play an increasingly important role in people’s daily life and work. However, these devices are often subject to vibration and shock during transportation, use and storage, which can lead to equipment damage, performance degradation and even data loss. Therefore, it is particularly important to conduct research on vibration and shock protection of structures for 3C electronic devices. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the application of ACF artificial cartilage material SH series in the anti-vibration and anti-impact protection of 3C electronic equipment, in order to provide a useful reference for the related industry.

Second, the importance of anti-vibration and anti-shock protection of 3C electronic equipment

ACF laboratory through research found that: 3C electronic equipment due to its sophisticated structure and complex functions, the sensitivity to vibration and shock is higher. Vibration and shock may not only cause damage to the equipment shell, but also affect the performance of the internal components of the equipment, and even lead to data loss. Therefore, the structure of 3C electronic equipment vibration and shock protection can not only improve the reliability and stability of the equipment, but also extend the service life of the equipment, to protect data security.

Characteristics of ACF Artificial Cartilage Material SH Series

ACF artificial cartilage material SH series is an innovative material specially designed for the protection of valuables, with the following characteristics:

Impact resistance: SH series materials have high-speed sensitive characteristics, can respond quickly in high-speed collision, the impact force into kinetic energy, effectively protect electronic equipment from damage.

Compression resistance: SH series materials have good durability, can maintain good performance in long-term collision or impact, and is not easily affected by high temperature and high humidity environment.

Safetyand environmental protection: SH series materials are environmentally friendly and non-corrosive, do not contain halogen four, low surface resistivity, can effectively dissipate or absorb static electricity to prevent damage caused by static electricity.

Adjustability: SH series materials can be customized according to different needs, including thickness, hardness, density and other parameters, you can choose the most appropriate buffer gaskets according to the size, shape and weight of the electronic equipment and other factors, in order to achieve the best protective effect.

Fourth, ACF artificial cartilage material SH series in 3C electronic equipment vibration and impact protection applications

Chassis packaging protection: In the packaging of 3C electronic equipment, ACF Artificial Cartilage SH series materials can be used as cushioning pads to effectively resist vibration and shock during transportation and protect the equipment safely and without damage. By customizing the appropriate cushioning pads, we can ensure that the equipment is fully protected during the packaging process.

Sensitive Electronic Component Protection: For sensitive electronic components such as motherboards, CPUs, memory sticks, hard disks and other sensitive electronic components in servers, SH series materials can be used as impact resistant shims. These shims can be installed between the electronic components and the equipment casing to effectively absorb the impact of vibration and shock on the electronic components and prevent damage caused by vibration and shock.

Structural optimization and active protection measures: In addition to the use of SH series materials for protection, you can also optimize the design of the structure of 3C electronic equipment, such as adding dampers, shock absorbers and other active protection measures. These measures can be combined with SH series materials to jointly improve the vibration and impact resistance of the equipment.

V. Conclusion and Outlook

ACF Labs research found that ACF artificial cartilage materials SH series show excellent performance in vibration and shock protection for 3C electronic equipment. By customizing suitable cushioning shims and applying active protection measures, the vibration and shock resistance of 3C electronic equipment can be significantly improved to protect the equipment from vibration and shock. In the future, with the continuous development of new materials and technologies, we have reason to believe that the anti-vibration and anti-shock protection of 3C electronic equipment will be even more perfect and efficient, bringing consumers a more comfortable and wonderful product experience.
