9. Success Story: LUMITEX
FFC used into a lightinh system for doorstep of
cars.
Nicomaic has been choosen for the ability to
produce specific cables (black polyester), with
high quality and good customer service.
We could move production to our chinese
factory to still competitive on the asian market.

10. Crimpflex jumpers
Additional functions given by Crimpflex jumpers
- Crimping contacts
- Mechanical retention by contact and clip
- Solder tabs
- 2.54 / 1.27mm pitch
- Flat to round wire

11. Microflex harnesses
The Microflex Harness: combining our know-hows
MAIN BENEFITS
- Secure interconnection: jackscrew fixing
- Cost saving vs a standard Harness
- Saves up to 30% weight vs cables
- MIL 55302 performance

12. FFC Impedance controlled
Market need:
100ohm: for High speed signal, industrial applications
(video, audio transmission)
50 & 75ohm: for High frequency signal, military & aerospace applications
(safety critical: attack helicopters, UAV, medical)
Nicomatic Future solutions:
1/ shielded FFC (with new manufacturing process)
= EMI-RFI solution, low impedance
2/ Micro-strip FFC
(1 shield layer, 1 polyester layer)
= for Impedance matching 50 / 75 / 100ohm
3/ Strip-line FFC
= for Impedance matching 50 /100 ohm & EMI
Mating connectors: Tested with connectors FH41

13. FFC Impedance controlled
Status:
Prototypes under development
Comercialisation: Q2 2013
(to check with Dave for schedule, seems Tough but realistic for
me:
For full comercialisation, we will need: test results, targets,
validated positioning, benchmark, part numbering, online pricing,
sample kits)
