Shape Memory Alloys/Nitinol Components
Shape Memory/Formgedaechtnislegierungen/Nitinol Alloys materials are capable of remembering a previously memorized shape and exert a useful force or support very high deformations, up to 10%, thanks to their Superelasticity properties.
Component makers can use SmartFlex® Nitinol wires and springs to simplify products, add new functions, upgrade performance, improve reliability and cut down component costs, while significantly reducing mechanical complexity and size.
