Our Technology
What sets Bead apart from the competition is our ability to rapidly deliver custom solutions to challenging interconnect problems. We provide rapid prototypes to support your product development programs and get you to market faster. And Bead has the capacity to support you from product roll-out, through the ramp-up phase, all the way to full production.
The bead-formed manufacturing process, called swaging, yields superior value. That's because it's a high-speed, virtually scrapless cold-forming process capable of producing small metal parts that are dimensionally consistent and inexpensive.
Our swaging process helped revolutionize the electronics industry with the production of inexpensive, high-quality contact pins for radio vacuum tubes in the 1920's. It produced the first parabolically tipped wire wrap pin in the 1960's that helped the telecom industry reduce its gold plating specification by 50%. Today, it produces a patent pending hybrid SMT/through hole interconnect pin that improves reliability, saves solder and gives users a competitive advantage. Let us show you how we can apply this unique, time-tested process to your challenging application.
