Electrical Contacts and Semifinished Products

The use of commutator angles and brushes is essential.

Coated contact pins meet high standards for signal and power transmission in electrical and mechatronic systems by combining positive properties of precious and non-precious materials.​

Heraeus bond preforms make circuit board designs more reliable and flexible. When soldered onto PCBs and ceramic hybrids, they allow for the automated application of additional and reliable bond isles.​

Roll Clad strips are applied as electrical connections in Li-ion batteries and e-mobility applications.

Multi-wire wipers, also called multi-contact wipers, are used in contact systems with high current transmission quality.

Rolled precious metal alloy strips are characterized by their high resistance to corrosion and their excellent mechanical properties.

Silver-based alloys and composite materials are essential when it comes to controlled switching of electrical loads in the low voltage range.

Slip ring transmitters are used wherever electrical power and information is transferred between a stationary and a rotating component.

Switching contacts are components for contact systems in information and data technology, as well as for automotive and industrial applications.

Platinum wires are used in resistance thermometers and gas flow meters.

Clad wires combine a core of non-precious material with an outer coating of a precious metal alloy. They are used for power and data transmission in sensor technology and rotating systems.

High temperature thermocouple wires are manufactured from physically pure Platinum and Rhodium. The purity of the metals helps achieve the most accurate measurement results possible for this type of technology.

Resistance wires made of platinum alloys are highly reliable and reproducible, making them the material of choice for various applications, such as airbag initiators.

Resistance wires for position sensors are mainly made of palladium alloys with high specific resistance. They are used in numerous applications, such as the automotive industry and mechanical engineering.
