Isabellenhütte presents for the first time at the CODICO workshop tour

The first workshop tour of Isabellenhütte’s sales partner CODICO took place in September in Poland and the Czech Republic.

CODICO was responsible for organising the events, which were geared in particular towards hardware developers, technicians and buyers from the automotive and industrial technology sectors. The objective was twofold: to share knowledge with customers and interested parties, and to provide information on product innovations and technologies from Isabellenhütte, which the sales specialist for electronic components CODICO has had on its line card for approximately two years now.

The workshops were divided into seminar modules. The introduction of the company Isabellenhütte was followed by the most interesting part for participants: basics of current sensing. This brought all participants up to speed before the discussion delved into the key areas of measurement technology and shunt resistors. The seminar also looked at the two patented manufacturing methods ISA-PLAN® and ISA-WELD®, their complex set-up and specific areas of application. ISA-PLAN® technology is designed for the manufacture of precision resistance elements from foils of MANGANIN® and ZERANIN® alloy using etching technology. With the ISA-WELD® method, these elements are produced from massive, electron-beam-welded composite material, from copper and from the resistor alloys MANGANIN®, ZERANIN®, ISAOHM® and Aluchrom. Both methods offer very different advantages and features. The ISA-PLAN® method’s planar structures permit low-inductance design forms and very low thermal internal resistances. Optimised current density distribution is characteristic of this method, which subsequently avoids the danger of hot spots.

Thanks to the composite material used, ISA-WELD® resistors stand out for their exceptional flexibility. They can be adapted by means of stamping and bending to suit almost any shape and application, and thus enable the highest degree of application design flexibility.

The workshop module titled “Trends and new product innovations” took a look at the future and provided insight into the research and development activities at Isabellenhütte, among other things. Practical information and useful tips for reading data sheets and diagrams rounded out the workshop programme for the day.

Due to the strong interest, CODICO and Isabellenhütte have already announced that they will continue the workshop tour in 2017. Dates and locations will appear in trade press publications and on the websites of both partners.
