Arcade machines require effective RF shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) from disrupting their electronic components and surrounding devices. The most common types of RF shielding used in these gaming cabinets include metal enclosures, conductive gaskets, shielding paints and coatings, and window meshes. Metal enclosures, typically made from aluminum or steel, form the primary shield around sensitive circuits. Conductive gaskets create EMI-tight seals around doors and access panels. Specialized shielding paints containing conductive materials like nickel or copper provide protection on plastic surfaces. Transparent conductive meshes applied to monitor windows prevent RF leakage while maintaining visibility. These shielding methods work together to ensure arcade machines meet electromagnetic compatibility standards while delivering uninterrupted gaming performance. Proper installation and maintenance of these shielding components are crucial for long-term protection against both emitted and received interference in busy arcade environments.
