In the world of industrial connectivity, professionals are often faced with challenges related to the efficiency and reliability of cable and circuit assemblies. Traditional technologies, such as soldered connectors or rigid wiring systems, although widely used, have limitations in terms of flexibility and durability, especially in demanding environments like aerospace or medical applications.
Introduction to the Crimpflex System
This is where Nicomatic’s Crimpflex system stands out. Specifically designed to address these challenges, Crimpflex uses an innovative crimping method that efficiently pierces various substrates, such as flexible printed circuits and flat cables. This patented technology ensures a six-point crimp, two for mechanical strength and four to guarantee flawless electrical continuity.
Technical Specifications of Crimpflex
Crimpflex can be seen as a flexible connector solution that perfectly adapts to the shape and constraints of the device it serves. Imagine a flexible printed circuit that needs to bend to fit into a compact medical device, or a flat cable that must maintain a reliable connection in military equipment subject to specific requirements. Crimpflex meets these needs with exceptional precision and reliability, offering a crimp thickness ranging from 75 to 350 microns and the ability to carry up to 3 amps per contact.
The pitch options are 2.54mm and 1.27mm, allowing integration into almost any system design. The contacts can be configured in straight or right-angle arrangements, male or female, with single or double-row contacts, making them highly adaptable to various design requirements.
Tooling and Accessibility
In terms of installation, Nicomatic has developed a set of crimping tools specifically designed for Crimpflex, ranging from hand tools capable of handling up to 5 contact points to more robust manual or electric presses for applications requiring up to 10 simultaneous contacts. This flexibility in tooling ensures that users can install and maintain their systems with maximum ease and efficiency.
Conclusion: Why Choose Crimpflex?
