COMPARISON WITH SEGMENTED FEMALE CONTACT
Segmented female contacts are used mainly for electric connectors and shielding applications in the automotive and other industries.
BAUMANN Contact Elements have the
following advantages compared with segmented female contacts:
- Low electrical contact resistance
The high number of electrical contact points results in a considerably lower
electrical contact resistance at a designable insertion force.
- Low space requirement
BAUMANN Contact Elements are shorter compared with segmented female contacts. Engineers have chosen BAUMANN Contact Elements to reduce the size of the total assembly.
- High acceptance of mechanical
deficiencies
Thanks to their spring characteristics,
BAUMANN Contact Elements allow for large fit tolerance and compensate eccentricity and surface deficiencies.
- Good performance
in rough environment
Because each coil acts as an individual, flexible contact point, BAUMANN Contact Elements are comparably insusceptible to vibrations, shocks,
temperature changes, dirt and other rough environments.
- Long life time
Low abrasion and mechanical robustness make BAUMANN Contact Elements suitable
for applications requiring a long lifetime and high number of cycles.
