Coils

Coils belong to the passive electrical components and are often also called inductors. Coils are characterized by the fact that they are wound from several conductor loops. Applications range from chokes to antennas. The geometry of the coils does not necessarily have to be round, i.e. almost any shape - even with spatial geometry - can be realized.

Baking varnish coils

We manufacture self-supporting spools of selfbonding wire in all conceivable shapes. In this way, a coil can also be manufactured in more complex geometries. The applications are diverse: as a transmitting or receiving coil in an RFID application, as a deflection coil in image processing systems or as a coil in an actuator system.

Technical specifications

Wire diameter: 35 µm ... 2.5 mm
dimensions: 1 mm .. 1,000 mm
Temperature range: up to 180 °C
Geometry: any

 

Designs

  • Winding material: self-bonding wire, self-bonding stranded wire, self-bonding high-frequency stranded wire in copper or aluminum
  • Connections: leaded (THT), surface mount (SMD), free ends
  • Construction: open, impregnated, potted, flat construction, single and multilayer, 2D or 3D geometry
  • Options: On request with special insulation properties

Fields of application

The applications of baked varnish coils range from measuring systems in industrial electronics to medical technology. They are used whenever standard solutions (e.g. temperature, geometry, mounting) are not good enough for your application.

Air coils

Air core coils do not have a soft magnetic core. The magnetization characteristic is therefore linear and magnetic saturation does not occur. In cylindrical coils, the open magnetic circuit typically results in a large stray field. The situation is different, however, with toroidal coils. We can develop and wind air core coils for you in a wide variety of shapes and with a wide variety of properties.

Technical specifications

Wire diameter: 50 µm ... 15 mm
Dimensions: 1 mm .. 1.000 mm
Geometry: any

 

Examples

Designs

  • Geometry: Single and multilayer, 2D and 3D geometry, cylindrical and toroidal shape.
  • Winding material: wire, flat wire, baked enamel wire, stranded wire, foil, tube in copper or aluminum
  • Connections: leaded (THT), surface mount (SMD), free ends, terminals
  • Construction: open, impregnated, potted, flat construction
  • options: water cooling, special insulation properties
  • Arbitrary choice of mounting points possible

Fields of application

The applications of our air core coils range from spare loads in motor test benches to filter crossovers in audio technology. They are always used when standard solutions (e.g. quality, insulation, cooling) are not good enough for your application.

Actuator coils

Actuator coils are characterized by the fact that they generate a defined magnetic field when energized and generate a magnetic force in combination with their environment. Depending on the geometry and design of the actuator, translatory or rotatory movements with a wide range of force-displacement characteristics can be realized. Actuator coils can be found in almost all areas of technology - whether in valves, direct drives or other applications.

Technical specifications

Wire diameter: 50 µm ... 15 mm
Dimensions: 1 mm ... 1,000 mm

 

Examples

Designs

  • Geometry: Single and multilayer, 2D and 3D geometry.
  • Winding material: wire, flat wire, baked enamel wire, stranded wire in copper or aluminum
  • Connections: leaded (THT), surface mount (SMD), free ends
  • Construction: open, impregnated, potted, in housing
  • options: Water cooling, special insulation properties
  • Any choice of mounting points possible

Fields of application

The applications of our actuator coils range from valves in the chemical industry to high-precision drives in medical technology. They are always used when standard solutions (e.g. installation space, insulation, characteristic curve) are not good enough for your application.

Deflection coils

By means of magnetic fields, the deflection coil deflects moving charged particles perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. Deflection coils are used in various fields: From consumer electronics to medical technology. In CRT monitors and televisions, they deflect the electron beam onto the screen. In electron microscopes, to focus or deflect the electron beam. In mass spectrometers, to separate different atomic masses. No matter for which application you need a deflection coil. We have the right one for you!

Other coils

In addition to the coils shown, the Pikatron Group also offers all other types of coils. In some cases, it is only the terms that differ, but in others these are genuine special cases for which we can, of course, also help you. In all probability we can also help you with discontinued coils of other manufacturers, if your application does not allow a basic renewal. But we are also at your disposal for updating your entire application. Just contact us.
