Bimetal switch assembly (temperature controller)
Pre-assembled bimetal switch assembly for temperature control in heating appliances such as electric irons: on reaching the switching temperature, the bimetal strip deflects and opens the contact — the heating element switches off and re-closes on cooling. Spring tongue, contact and carrier plate supplied as a ready-to-install stamped and formed assembly on a carrier pin.

Häufige Fragen zur Fertigung: Bimetal switch assembly (temperature controller)
You can produce Bimetal switch assembly (temperature controller) on the FMS-Q 250 RS, FMS-Q 350 RS and BMS 5. The FMS-Q 250 RS works with 250 kN punching force, strip material up to 60 mm width, wire up to 6 mm. At up to 400 parts per minute, the machine is designed for series production — finished parts come straight off the machine.
The radial design positions the bending slides freely through 360° around the central bending core — ideal for parts like Bimetal switch with multiple bends in different directions. Tool changes take less than 30 minutes, so even smaller batches are economical. Depending on batch size and part geometry, alternative Biegema series are also suitable — we will recommend the right configuration for your requirements.
Thermostatic bimetal + spring steel + copper (0.6 mm) runs through the punch-bending machine as strip or wire stock in a progressive process: punching, bending, and inspection happen in one pass. Instead of buying parts from suppliers, you produce them in-house at significantly lower unit costs from medium quantities upwards — Biegema configures the machine specifically for your part.
