Thermo Bimetal

The company offers thermobimetals which are laminated materials consisting of at least two components with different thermal expansion coefficients. During heating one of the components expands more than the other(s), which results in a curvature of the thermobimetal. The greater the variance in thermal expansion between the components the greater the curvature will be.

During practical application external forces often restrict a free movement of the thermobimetal. Any partial or complete restriction results in a corresponding force. This way a thermobimetal has the capacity of retaining or releasing energy.

For improved weldability an electroplating treatment may be added.

It manufactures strips with a thickness from 0,10 mm to 2 mm and a width from 1 mm to 150 mm. The tolerances vary depending on the dimensions; the narrowest tolerance is +0,1 mm for width and ±0,002 mm for thickness.
