Contactless connectivity for a connected world

RoProxCon® - zero-wear & low maintenance connector system

Tailored solution for robotics and industrial automation

Every day, a robotic arm and a different tool connect hundreds of times, impacting the lifespan of the connector. The contactless solution provides enhanced functionality, particularly in scenarios where a wired connection poses challenges or is unattainable.

As specialists in developing and manufacturing connectivity solutions, we apply our extensive experience to meticulously craft these connectors down to the finest detail.

Whitepaper

Influence of the Material on Contactless Data Transmission

In order to make contactless data transmission as reliable as possible, material and environmental influences on the antenna unit must be minimized. 

This is done by designing the so-called radome. This is the part of the enclosure that protects the antenna from external influences but at the same time must be as transparent as possible for the radio waves.

In the following whitepaper, the physical background of radio wave transmission is examined and – based on this – recommendations for the design of the radome are given, particularly with regard to the influences of the material and dimensions.
