Spring probes provide reliable electro-mechanical performance through hundreds of thousands of cycles. They are available in a variety of sizes, spring forces and terminations. Smiths Interconnect compression mount connectors utilizing spring probe technology offer tremendous advantages in reliability, performance and efficiency in comparison to conventional technologies like stamped metal, wire mesh, pin-and-socket or elastomer. Standard spring probes offering includes battery contact and connector probes designed to optimize contact performance in high-reliability, multiple-cycle interconnect applications.

The focus on buy-to-fly ratios highlights the contributing role that near net shape processing can offer. This has undoubtedly been a driver in increasing this service offering from AMA. As a major contributor in the aircraft manufacturing supply chain, this is a key area of development for AMA and its companies. Customers are increasingly looking to optimise their production processes. This is primarily driven by the need to maximise their own spindle time for core business activities, with AMA therefore undertaking some of the machining processes. It can take many forms, from simple cutting to more intricate processing in which near net shape pieces are supplied. Even in AMA businesses whose business is predominantly transactional (so called ‘spot business’) rather than contractual, the processing element is increasing. Pre-machined kits of parts to individual specifications are becoming more commonplace. In addition to freeing up time for customers and OEMs to focus on more profitable final processing, near net shape processes can improve product quality, reduce variability and enhance component design functionality. As the industry continues to search for ways to lower buy-to-fly ratios and reduce the amount of waste, near net shape processing will have a greater role to play.

Fly through GE's CF34-10 engine to learn why it is ready to power the B-52 into the future.

JWGE connector which was derived from the VG95234, was developed for low-voltage/high-current transmission and, when combined, exhibits IP68 water and dust resistance, also exhibiting excellent durability and mechanical performance in a temperature range of 55° to +125°C. These features are applied and utilized in military vehicles and various industrial equipment.

Our advanced mine detector combines photochemical and metal detection technologies, enabling the identification of both metallic and non-metallic mines. Selected in December 2024 for the Global Small but Strong Enterprise Development Program by KRIT, this cutting-edge system is now under development. Backed by a Letter of Commitment from Ukraine, it is set to play a key role in reconstruction and humanitarian demining efforts.

The X-BEAM TECH HXB Connectors, featuring expanded beam technology, hermaphroditic connection, rugged construction for field deployment have been designed for harsh environment applications such as military tactical communications, avionics, offshore systems, outside broadcast, mining and plant. The expanded beam technology uses expanded and collimated beams to couple optical fibers without any contact. It could allow for optics to be used in areas that have been quite restrictive due to presence of damage or contamination at the fiber end. Hermaphroditic connector design enables fast deployment by daisy-chaining multiple cable segments. HXB series connectors also enable transfer of electrical signal or power using hybrid insert configuration.
