This system is available in single or double rows of up to 60 contacts and with latching or stainless fixing hardware to ensure secure connection under high vibration environments. Specialised polymide insulation tape materials can handle high temperature requirements to 125°C and above. The Microflex technology is a cost effective solution compared to other cable technologies and connection systems and offers the reliability required for MIL/Aero applications. Moreover, the assembly process is superior in terms of crimping and insertion speed. Compared to crimping individual round wires, the crimping process that Nicomatic has developed is simultaneous for multiple contacts. The flat cable is crimped in one single operation and then the housing is assembled seperately. This beats the normal 'poke home' contact-by-contact insertion into the housing, which is a much slower process. |
