Druseidt-Connectors made out of foils
Range of application
Our laminated flexible connectors are necessary everywhere where it is impossible to use solid bus bars to transfer the current. Main applications are:
- Expansion-equilibration in bus bar-systems
- Expansion-equilibration to connect transformers and generators
- Vibration-equilibration
- Moveable current-transfer in machines and devices
- Switching elements in switches
Description
Laminated flexible connectors are made out of copper- or aluminum-foil in bare, in case of copper alternatively in tinned configuration. The foil-cutoffs will be stacked and after this united at the contact-areas by using a tuned process for the later application. For this we use foils from 0,05 up to 1 mm thickness. The width and thickness of the connector is chosen by our customers.
In case of aluminum-connectors a solid piece of aluminum will be welded at the end of the foils.
Cross-section / max. load
In standard design we offer connectors up to a cross-section of ca. 5000 mm˛ . The maximum current-load is conditioned by a wide number of factors. Please contact us for detailed information.
We also develop special-designs for your individual applications.
Procedure
We use the following procedures to produce laminated flexible copper connectors:
- Press welding
- Electron-beam welding
- Melt welding
- Gas-shielded welding
- Solder
- Press rivet
Procedures to produce aluminum laminated connectors
- Melt welding
- Electron-beam welding
Materials
In order to optimize the max. load and conductance of our connectors we use exclusively pure and extreme transmittable materials as foils and sheet metal covers.
For copper-connectors: Cu-ETP (previously E-Cu) and Cu-HCP (previously SE-Cu) according DIN EN 13599
For Aluminum-connectors: E-Al 99,5 according DIN EN
We advise, that in case of using different materials than above the conductance of the connectors become bad.
Strength
For different cases of application we use various foils from F20 - F30. The used strength class depends on the mechanical stress of the connector in operation.
Form
For different applications we offer a wide range of standard shapes and also special designs :
- Bows in S-, U- and V-Form
- Straight connectors
- Bended connectors according your wishes
- U-forms for roll-movements
Quality
Our company is certified according DIN EN ISO 9001:2000.
