These components are designed for use in harsh environments where small size, weight reduction and resistance to harsh environments are valued.

ARNOLD UMFORMTECHNIK

Cleancon concept

The number of vehicle failures due to electronic components is increasing every year. Electronic components are involved in nearly half of all emergency assistance calls received by the German motorists’ association ADAC. Often coming from screws, microscopic contamination particles on interconnects regularly cause failures in control units. To solve this problem, Arnold Umformtechnik has developed the Cleancon concept.
