Flexible cable saves battery space

Flexible cable saves battery space

FFC (flexible, flat cable) requires the smallest of installation spaces, says Hialtech UK, which will be exhibiting its new battery management system cables. They also reduce the dimensions of cut-outs.

As a result, production designers have greater design flexibility as they attempt to reduce overall space, weight and cost in the battery management system. FFC is also a low cost alternative to a traditional FPC (flexible printed circuit).

The FFC is the latest addition to a wide range of flexible board-to-board interconnect systems by Hialtech UK, designed for use across applications ranging from industrial control systems to automotive electronics to white goods. The product range also includes terminal blocks, pin headers and sockets and enclosures.

The company also provides value added services, including printing, custom machining and kitting.
