Electrical interconnection technologies

With over 40 years of experience in electrical connection technology, Fraunhofer EMFT is an expert in soldering, crimping, and assembly and connection techniques. We help companies develop reliable and high-performance connection solutions for demanding applications—particularly in the military and space sectors, as well as other safety-critical areas.

Tribology determines the friction, wear, and contact behavior of electrical connections. The Fraunhofer EMFT uses surface analysis, modeling, and digital twins to specifically optimize contact surfaces and increase the reliability and service life of electrical systems.

Fraunhofer EMFT supports companies in the development, design, and optimization of electrical connections and connectors - from design and numerical simulation to experimental validation and quality assessment.

Modern electronics place the highest demands on efficiency, safety, and reliability. Fraunhofer EMFT draws on decades of experience to precisely analyze connectors and electrical interconnection solutions, test them in accordance with standards, and develop them specifically for demanding applications.
