Plunger plating
The plating on the contact probe’s plunger significantly influences electrical contact resistance, wear, and lifetime. It optimizes conductivity, reduces abrasion, and protects against corrosion. A suitable plating is crucial for stable and reproducible contact, particularly during high cycle counts and when contact surfaces are contaminated.
FAQ
A suitable coating reduces transition resistance and ensures a stable, reproducible electrical connection.
The coating plays a key role, especially in cases involving high cycle counts, mechanical stress, or contaminated contact surfaces.
Depending on the application, gold, nickel, or multilayer systems are used, for example, to meet different requirements for conductivity and wear resistance.
