Three weeks prior to a client’s launch of their flagship waterproof phone, they saw that the acoustic consistency of the device was significantly damaging the production yield.

A Chinese OEM approached Gore one month before the launch of their product after realizing that the current pressure vent installed in their devices was not providing an adequate airflow.

During their design validation process, the client discovered that their existing mic vent failed the product waterproofing test, which caused catastrophic damage to the device.

The client discovered an exceedingly high incidence of warranty claims for their wearable consumer electronic device over a four month period.

During their design validation process, the client found their specified pressure vent did not meet the required standards, as the robustness and reliability of manufacturing the final product was less than satisfactory.

The client noticed at the end of their design validation process that there was significant distortion coming from the speaker of their device.
