Wire for Automotive

Up to 90% of all new features in our cars are based on electronics. Car manufactures use innovations such as GPS navigation, ESP, ABS, Car-phones, on-board computers, emission controls, anti-theft devices, park and cruise distance controls as well as engine and transmission management systems as competitive advantages. Luvata Appleton uses Alloys like CuMg, CuFe and CuAg to manufacture high quality plated and bare wires. The key advantage of these alloys is the combination of high electrical conductivity and high tensile strength. Automotive connectors and terminal blocks are excellent area for the use of these alloys. Both types of connectors are subject to high Amperage stress and the pins must be of high tensile strength for safety reasons. Highest quality standards (ISO 9001/2000) and environmental regulations are self-evident for us as a supplier to the Automotive Industry.
