Wire solutions for the electronics industry
Expertise in materials, shapes, and surface coatings
High-quality electronic wire from bedra can be found worldwide in passive or electronic components. The trend towards miniaturization in electronic components is placing ever higher demands on the materials used and the processing technologies selected. With our decades of experience and our areas of research and development, it is precisely here that we can demonstrate our leadership in the market. Our extensive knowledge of materials and processing ensures our technological lead and enables us to develop new solutions for the end product.
Increased demands in processing quality
Against this background, we are true specialists in the production of square, rectangular, and octagonal profiles, and flat and round wires in smooth and knurled designs. The fact that we meet the tightest tolerances in dimension, diagonal and edge radius, as well as exact knurling, precision, and process stability are impressive proof of our expertise. At the same time, it reflects the increased demands placed on state-of-the-art wire processing. Our fulfillment of optimum straightness requirements with customer-specific parameters and precise layer winding round out our self-imposed quality standards.
Modern surface finishing
To produce consistently high surface quality, we use different electroplating equipment and coating variants. Having our own laboratory allows us to meet our quality requirements at all times. The range of possible surface coatings ranges from pure tin coatings, through variants with nickel or copper barrier layers, to multi-layer technology. Using high-purity tin electrolytes ensures that we meet the requirements for high brazing temperatures.
The reflow technology keeps galvanized wires more free of whiskers. At the same time, it supports modern manufacturing processes in the application industry. The production process is rounded out by strictly following all environmental standards, along with an inspection of ROHS compliance by certified external testing labs.
A variety of wire geometries
bedra is the specialist in the production of square, rectangular, and octagonal profiles, flat and round wires in smooth and knurled design. Strict adherence to specifications for dimension, diagonal, and edge radius, as well as exact layer winding ensure that our customers’ high demands are met.
Many applications for bedra electronic wire
bedra electronic wires are used in the connector and bobbin industry. With our versatile alloy variants, we also offer product solutions for heating cables and special wires for the cable industry.
High-quality surface finishes
We apply functional layers to our electronic wires on our own electroplating equipment. This ranges from simple pure tin coatings, through variants with nickel or copper barrier layers, to multi-layer technology. Of course, compliance with the RoHS guideline is ensured both in alloy composition and in electroplating.
Highly precise knurling
Upon request, bedra electronic wires are available with a highly precise knurling or grooving. In doing so, compliance with the most stringent tolerances of the customer-specific product parameters is ensured.
