Corrosion in electrical systems – technical event

Together with Amphenol, Avnet Abacus, and Belden, Odense Robotics invites all members to join a very special event deep diving into corrosion in electrical systems, where Amphenol scientists and engineers will be sharing knowledge and insights.

Corrosion and fretting corrosion appear in all electrical systems and connections, indoor or outdoor, and will definitively cause failure and complications. Join this event if you want to strengthen the sturdiness of your electrical designs, focusing on vibrations, environmental impact, and natural corrosion dynamics.

Amphenol is one of the world’s biggest providers of high-tech interconnect sensor and antenna solutions, as well as harsh environment connector systems. Furthermore, the company has a long history within the science sector with developing electrical solutions. At the event, they will now share this knowledge with the Odense Robotics network.

At this event you will meet the following specialists:

• Antoine Fares-Karam, Global Plating Engineering Manager, Ph.D., Amphenol
• Thierry Goossens, Director Product Solutions Group & FAE manager EMEA, Amphenol
• Alf Leth, inter-connect & electromechanical product specialist, Avnet Abacus

During lunch, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and network with the scientists and network, and join the hands-on workshop, which will present different inter-connect solutions and concepts. If you have a challenge with a specific technical product/concept, please feel free to bring it to the workshop for specialist opinions.

Deep dive subjects:

• Why is corrosion appearing?
• Ways to prevent corrosion.
• Surface impact tin/silver/gold thicknesses.
• Mating cycles, what does the number of mating do on the corrosion?
• Impact from current and voltage in the specific connection.
• Vibration – fretting corrosion.
• How to choose the most feasible connector system.

Stakeholders: Specialists, R&D people, tech enthusiasts, electro engineers, etc.
