Problems solved by technology

Due to the high resistivity of nickel-titanium shape memory alloys, it is difficult for a single material to meet the performance requirements of electronic products. In addition, in order to realize remote control and operation, it is also necessary to combine nickel-titanium shape memory alloys with copper alloys commonly used in the electronics and electrical fields. connect them
Due to the large difference in melting point and linear expansion coefficient between nickel-titanium shape memory alloy and copper alloy dissimilar materials, the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint are seriously affected.
The main problem is that the copper alloy has a high reflectivity to the laser, and a large amount of copper-titanium intermetallic compounds (mainly including: Cu 4 Ti, Cu 2 Ti, Cu 3 Ti 2 , Cu 4 Ti 3 , CuTi, and CuTi 2 etc.), significantly reducing the strength, toughness and electrical conductivity of the welded joint
