CONTACT · RETENTION · INTEGRATION

Components for the electrical industry.

Springs, wire forms and stampings for contact, retention or movement in electrical systems. Distinguishing mechanical function from electrical requirements helps frame material, finish and interfaces. The inquiry also needs to identify checks for the component and validation requirements for the complete assembly.

FROM THE APPLICATION TO THE COMPONENT

Capabilities to assess your component

Open a family to review its examples and technical criteria.

Connect manufacturing with verification.

  • Manufacturing family and process

  • Characteristics and acceptance criteria

  • Inspection methods and records

  • Required tests or approvals

Read the assessment criteria

We assess springs, wire forms and stampings against the required geometry. We agree which characteristics to inspect, acceptance criteria and documentation. Specific tests or approvals are reviewed with their scope and responsibilities.

Define the verification you need.

  • Required features and tests

  • Part or assembly to validate

  • Verification responsibilities

  • Quantities and receiving requirements

Read the assessment criteria

Add the features, tests or approvals required by your application to the drawing. Clarify who performs them and which part or assembly they cover. With quantities and receiving requirements, this definition supports review of technical and supply scope.
