LEARN ABOUT

AKAPP LongLife: Low-Maintenance Conductor Bar Technology

AKAPP LongLife conductor bar systems use continuous copper conductors to eliminate mechanical joints and minimise transition resistance. The smooth, uninterrupted contact surface reduces heat build-up and wear on collector trolleys, ensuring reliable power transmission, longer carbon brush life and lower maintenance requirements.
