In October 2025, Dongxun undertook the demand for 9 sets of molds from Sensience Group of the United States. Sensience Group is a world-renowned enterprise in the thermostat field. The following is a detailed introduction to this business:
Customer Background
Sensience Group, formerly known as THERM-O-DISC, was founded in Mansfield, Ohio, USA in 1945. It was acquired by Blackstone Group in 2023 and renamed thereafter. As a globally leading manufacturer of highly engineered sensing, control, and sealing components, its products are applied in fields such as home appliances, heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. It has 7 manufacturing plants and more than 3,000 employees worldwide.
Product Materials
The molds correspond to products made of a variety of materials, including stainless steel, cold-rolled steel, H62 brass, etc. Stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance and strength; cold-rolled steel features good surface quality and high dimensional accuracy; while H62 brass possesses favorable electrical conductivity and processability. These materials can meet the performance requirements of different components of thermostats.
Surface Treatment Processes
Surface treatment includes nickel plating, tin plating, heat treatment, and ultrasonic cleaning. Nickel plating and tin plating can enhance the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity of the product surface; heat treatment helps improve the mechanical properties of materials; and ultrasonic cleaning is used to remove oil stains, impurities, and other contaminants from the mold surface, ensuring the surface quality of the molds.
