Application validation

Comprehensive testing to ensure that fastening solutions perform reliably under real application conditions

One critical aspect that directly impacts both performance and safety in high-voltage applications is the conductivity of bolted joints.

Recognizing this need and the gap in international standards, our commitment is to provide customers with the most cost-effective solutions. Additionally, we offer conductivity trials tailored to meet specific customer requirements.

What?

An innovative test setup developed to compare various coating systems and joint materials.

Aimed at ensuring optimal performance while minimizing costs, this setup promises to standardize conductivity measurements.

With the electric vehicle (EV) industry rapidly advancing, the need for reliable bolted joint conductivity is essential.
Our setup addresses this need, ensuring that performance and cost-effectiveness are not compromised in the face of increasing demand.

This setup represents a collective effort towards customer requirements and deep knowledge.
With a focus on enhancing conductivity in bolted joints, it sets a new standard in the EV market, promising controlled performance at a lower cost.
