Reduce costs and increase reliability with RAST 2.5 and RAST 5

Lumberg is the RAST specialist. As an active player in the development of the RAST standards since the 1980´s, Lumberg today offers the widest product range in the market.
Using insulation displacement technology (IDT) instead of crimping, harnesses are produced fully automatically, with integrated test features. Modest up-front investment in automation saves you time and energy by reducing labors costs and achieving higher reliability. IDT harnesses are not only produced less expensively and more reliable, but they are also easier to install, and are more ergonomically friendly with fewer errors in final assembly - by using RAST over crimp technology.

•  connectors keyed mechanically and by color
•  direct connectors for PCB edge or indirect two-part connectors
•  insulation displacement technology (IDT)
•  screw clamp versions for field installation
•  free-to-configure tab and socket board systems
•  special versions for higher temperature ranges
•  for signal and load currents up to 25 A (RAST 5)
•  up to 4 A (RAST 2.5) resp. 10 A (RAST 2.5 Power)
•  pitch 2.5 mm (0.098") and 5 mm (0.197")
•  fully automated harnessing significantly reduces labor costs
•  integrated test features eliminate harnessing faults: e.g. short-circuit, continuity, highvoltage tests
•  semi-automatic and manual tooling solutions for low-volume production and maintenance
RAST technology has experienced a triumphant advance in the European appliance industry. Its name, which stands for “Raster-Anschluss-Steck-Technik”, is a German acronym that loosely translates to mean “Pitch Connection Technology”.
Double-sided keying of RAST 2.5 Power connectors now open more possibilities, especially with low pole numbers.
