Self-supported coils: Facts about coils made of selfbonding wire
Self-supported coils are coils made of wire that is coated with a thermoplastic layer - the bonding varnish. The term selfbonding enamel wire already indicates it: This wire is bonded during the winding process to give the coil the necessary stability without any other aids, especially in the case of air coils. The use of selfbonding wire can offer advantages over a bobbin coil in some cases, ...
These are the areas in which microcoils are generating major innovations
Innovations in medical technology are not least related to advances in coil manufacturing. The micro coils or sensors required for many medical technology applications are becoming increasingly powerful, while at the same time requiring less space.
Insulation layer on magnet wires: A common stumbling block for engineers
In coil production, the insulation of the wire has an influence on a wide variety of product properties such as application range, service life, costs or coil design. Wire insulation also has an effect on various factors during coil manufacturing, such as scrap or further processing. This article summarises the essential facts about wire insulation - and its effect on coil design - for engineers.
No series production without tools
Persistent supply chain disruptions are causing many companies to despair. That's where a quick set-up of series production for customised coil manufacturing is worth its weight in gold. However, the prerequisite for successful series production is optimal tools. At KUK Group, these are mostly manufactured internally as part of the in-house plant engineering.
Why Lean methods are beneficial in coil and electronics production
Anyone who knows Lean as a production method is probably familiar with the benefits of Lean. But what is Lean actually? How can you use Lean to speed up business processes? Learn more about Lean management methods that KUK Group, as a leading manufacturer of coils and electronics, applies itself.
This is why modular sourcing with your coil manufacturer makes sense
When purchasing electronic components, you can purchase individual parts from separate suppliers. Another variant is so-called Modular Sourcing, in which you hand over the assembly of complete modules to a customer-specific coil manufacturer. This reduces the complexity in your supply chain.
What makes a successful development project for coils production?
Engineers are aware of the challenges that await them in the feasibility phase. Especially with customised inductive components, it often takes several attempts until the optimal solution is found. This is a case for the development team of the KUK Group, the leading manufacturer of customised coils and electronics.
Much more than winding goods - these technologies KUK masters as well
Just winding coils is usually not enough, further production steps are necessary until an equipment manufacturer obtains a functional component. KUK Group offers the entire package from coil production to the assembly of a complete motor from a single source. High flexibility and fast turnaround times are the biggest advantages for the customer.
Key factors to consider when designing solenoid coils
Solenoid coils are versatile components that are used in a wide range of applications across many different fields, from automotive to medical and beyond. Depending on the application, there are several important influencing parameters to consider in the development and design process.
What material can coils be wound from?
In coil production, the wire used plays a central role. While copper is undoubtedly the most commonly used conductor material, especially for customer-specific coil projects, it is also worthwhile to test alternative coil wire, depending on the application.
