Abstract: An epoxy-encased wound capacitor suitable for being surface mounted and wave soldered to electronic circuitry, e.g. circuit boards and process for making the epoxy-encased wound capacitor. The wound capacitor is formed from winding together lengths of two bilaminar ribbons. The capacitor is then cured by exposing it to ultrasonic energy according to a predefined ultrasonic profile while at substantially the same time, mechanically pressing the capacitor. Contacts are formed on the capacitor and wire leads attached. Subsequently, the capacitor is placed in a flexible, reusable plastic mold featuring lead guides for precisely spacing the leads of the capacitor. Bubble-free epoxy is poured in the molds and heat cured. The epoxy-encased capacitor, suitable for surface mounting and wave soldering, is then removed from the mold.
