Stäubli Electrical Connectors AG products

The MULTILAM flexo type ML-CUX is a two-component MULTILAM for challenging high-power contact solutions. Its unique design optimally unites electrical and mechanical properties resulting in an excellent current-carrying capacity combined with high flexibility and easy assembly even in plugs and sockets with large diameter. A wide spring deflection based on a stretching principle allows high tolerances and misalignment and offers pivotal advantages for the use and fabrication of contact solutions. The ML-CUX fulfills customer requirements regarding compactness, high power density and reduction of Total Costs of Ownership (TCO). It guarantees long-lasting, reliable and low-loss energy transfer.

The MULTILAM fusio family comprises several so-called two-component torsion spring MULTILAM. The design is based on the separation of the electrical and mechanical functions by means of an additional component. As a second component it uses a stainless steel carrier strip on which the individual louvers are crimped (“fusion”). Therefore, both functions are optimized resulting in very high current capacity with excellent mechanical properties. These “fusio” types are specially designed for high requirements such as high-current applications in power transmission and distribution systems.

The MULTILAM torsio family comprises several types of MULTILAM, similar to the “lineo” family. These types are one-component MULTILAM having a different spring principle. Their spring properties result from torsion zones in the louvered strip creating a resilient connection between the strip and single louver. They provide a permanent and adequate contact force and result together with the short current path of each louver in higher current-carrying capacities. Thanks to the wide selection of MULTILAM torsio types, a broad range of requirements can be addressed easily.
