Why the “skin effect” makes Litz Wire the best choice for so many high-frequency applications.
Litz wire is a multistrand construction used in high-frequency electronics to reduce the skin effect and proximity effect losses in frequencies up to about 1 MHz. Litz consists of many thin wire strands, individually insulated and twisted or woven together which has the effect of equally distributing the current among the wire strands, reducing the…
Trends in Coil Winding call for custom wire specifications and the highest quality spooling
Coils provide the magnetic field of motors, transformers, and generators, and are used in the manufacturing of loudspeakers and microphones. Today, manufacturers are demanding more from their providers to attain technological advantages in the areas of efficiency, size, cost and performance. MWS is responding to those requirements with unique wire solutions produced in our plant…
Polyimide ML Insulation is key to performance and longevity in space
The uses for Polyimide ML insulation (thermal class 240°C) are high-temperature continuous duty coils, hermetically sealed relays, and fractional and integral HP motors. This insulation is primarily used in the aerospace industry due to its minimal outgassing property. Aerospace Wire applications – Because of its thermal insulation and radiation resistance properties, Polyimide (ML) is used…
Why Plated Wire is so Popular
At MWS, we use electroplating to create specialty wire to provide a solderable, conductive or corrosion-resistant surface. The effect of electroplating depends on the material used. In addition to conductor protection, these plated constructions can improve a wire’s solderability, conductivity, and overall strength. We provide a complete line of electroplated wire in round and ribbon…
