COPPER LAMINATED CONNECTORS | Flexible & High-Performance Power Interconnection Solutions
Unrivaled Conductivity, Supreme Flexibility, Absolute Reliability
Engineered for the most demanding electrical applications, our Copper Laminated Connectors offer a superior alternative to traditional solid busbars and braided conductors. Combining the high electrical conductivity of pure copper with the inherent flexibility of a laminated structure, these connectors are the ideal solution for efficiently transmitting high currents in systems prone to vibration, thermal expansion, or requiring intricate routing.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Exceptional Electrical Conductivity: Fabricated from 99.9% pure electrolytic tough pitch (ETP) copper, ensuring minimal resistance and maximum current transfer efficiency.
- Superior Flexibility: Composed of multiple thin layers (lamellae) of copper, these connectors offer outstanding flexibility. This allows for:
- Easy Installation: Conforms to complex shapes and tight spaces, simplifying assembly.
- Vibration Absorption: Dampens mechanical vibrations, crucial in dynamic environments like generators, motors, and heavy machinery, preventing stress on connected components.
- Thermal Expansion & Contraction Tolerance: Accommodates movement caused by temperature fluctuations without generating stress, enhancing system longevity.
- Optimized Heat Dissipation: The increased surface area of the laminated design facilitates more efficient heat dissipation, preventing hotspots and improving overall system thermal management.
- Robust & Durable Construction:
- High-Quality Bonding: Laminated layers are typically fused or high-pressure welded at the connection points, ensuring a secure and low-resistance termination.
- Corrosion Resistance: Available with various plating options (Tin, Silver, Nickel) to enhance corrosion resistance and improve contact efficiency in demanding environments.
- Space-Saving Design: Their flexible and compact nature allows for efficient use of available space, often leading to more streamlined and smaller enclosure designs.
- Custom Engineered Solutions: Designed and manufactured to your precise specifications, including dimensions, hole patterns, bends, and plating requirements.
- Reduced Skin Effect: For AC applications, the laminated structure can help distribute current more evenly across the cross-section compared to a solid bar, reducing the skin effect.
Versatile Applications:
Our Copper Laminated Connectors are trusted in a wide array of high-current applications across various industries:
- Switchgear & Control Panels: Flexible connections within electrical panels and switchgear assemblies.
- Transformers & Rectifiers: Critical for connecting high-current windings and output terminals.
- Generators & Motors: Absorbing vibration and accommodating thermal movement between busbars and terminals.
- Busduct Systems: Flexible links for expansion joints and misalignment compensation.
- Welding Equipment: High-current flexible leads and interconnections.
- Electrolysis Plants: Demanding applications requiring robust and efficient current transfer.
- Battery Banks & UPS Systems: Connecting cells and modules in high-power storage solutions.
- Furnaces & Induction Heating: Providing flexible power feeds in high-temperature environments.
- Renewable Energy Systems: Inverters, combiner boxes, and grid connections for solar and wind power.
- Power Distribution: Flexible joints in industrial power grids and substations.
