ODU can design, develop and manufacture connectors that are not available off the shelf These special products can be produced for wide-ranging applications in areas such as medical technology, military systems, testing, engineering, industrial electronics and many other situations

Furthermore the products include components that can handle micro voltages, high power, fibre optics, signals or even pneumatics, and in some cases a combination of these.

Emerging markets and innovations, says the company, are just two of the many reasons for custom development where performance, design, exclusivity and costs are all important criteria.

Examples of recent projects, many for blue-chip companies, include a push-pull high voltage connector that can be autoclaved for defibrillators, a locking push-pull connector with an extra-large grip to supply power and signal for medical equipment to wheelchairs, a docking connector for a magnetic hover train, a fast charge connector for electric vehicles, systems for underwater and offshore installations and a high performance contact with floating internal sockets for a telecommunications power supply.

Other developments include connectors for use on printed circuit boards, including surface mount, and suitable for automated placement systems.
