4 CONTACT TECHNOLOGYB rush CONTACT Innovation Multiple CONTACT interfaces - Strands of high tensile wire are bundled together to form BRUSH -like contacts. By inter- meshing two multi-strand wire bundles, an electrical connection is made. Provides redundant current paths, 14-70 (points of CONTACT ) per mated CONTACT with a gas tight junction Very smooth (low friction) interfaceConventional Pin/Socket Machined surface finish on both parts Higher friction and wear Limited number of CONTACT sitesAmphenol s High TechnologyMachining and Computer DrivenCenters for Connector andContact ProductionBrush vs. Conventional ContactsAmphenol Aerospace, located inupstate New York USA, has diverse manufacturing capabilityincluding state of the art CNC machining, die-casting, molding, impact and extruding, screw machining and within this facility are com-plete design engineering and environmental test TECHNOLOGY production centers at the Amphenol home facility and its satellite facilities create volume runs that are cost effective and meet on-time delivery operates a Quality Sys-tem that is third-party certified to ISO-9001.
