Connections of high load capacity, durability and flexibility ensure maximum availability when short charging times, secure contacting, and reliable connections are crucial—even with frequent docking, vibrations, and mechanical tolerances.
High insertion cycle counts and consistently stable electrical contacts are therefore crucial for high vehicle availability.
The interface must reliably compensate for positioning deviations while also providing protection against accidental contact. Depending on the application, signals, data, or fluids may also need to be transmitted via the same connection.
Modular ODU-MAC® Silver-Line connectors can combine various media into a single interface with radial positional deviations of up to 4mm, more than 100,000 mating cycles, up to 225A per module, with built-in IP2X touch protection for user safety.
Fibre-optic Expanded Beam Performance modules do not need cleanibg under normal conditions, so reducing the risk of maintenance-related downtime.
Up to 600A for exceptionally short charging times
For maximum charging power, ODU-MAC® Power Connectors use bridged busbars with 2 or 3 contacts.
Additionally, by incorporating modules from the ODU-MAC® Blue-Line portfolio allows a single connector can combine power with signal, data, fluid, and other interfaces.
The right solution for every AGV application
With the targeted combination of high current, long service life, mechanical tolerance, contact protection and a wide range of media, OEMs and system integrators can make their docking and charging more reliable.
