In his speech, song referred to recent studies on the wear of electrical contacts. To increase their service life, it is necessary to increase not only the wear resistance, but to achieve also good types of wear. The investigations led to the conclusion that despite the use of hard gold wear on the contact zone is very strong. plenty of information regarding this issue. Target future development work is therefore interpreted the contact surface to modify, increasing the life of electrical contacts with precious metal surfaces. Coating mechatronic components due to the progressive miniaturization of components permanently increase the demands on coating materials for mechatronic components. KG.
