Terminal Block Industry: Latest Technological Trends And Development Trends
As the core component of electrical connections, terminal blocks continue to play a crucial role in fields such as industrial automation, new energy, and 5G communication. In 2025, the industry's technology will present three core trends, promoting the upgrading of products towards high reliability, intelligence, and environmental protection.
1. Structural innovation to solve traditional pain points
In response to the problem of broken cold pressed connection terminals in transmission lines, the industry has achieved breakthroughs through structural optimization. For example, the new type of terminal block adds a tail cable wrapping tube to transfer the bending and wear of the crimping boundary to the insulation layer area. Experimental data shows that when the length of the wrapping tube is 3-5cm and the thickness is 2-4mm, the bending resistance performance is more than 5 times higher than that of traditional terminals, especially in low and medium wind speed environments, which has significant advantages and effectively reduces the risk of wire breakage. This type of design has been applied to 35kV collection lines in wind farms, significantly reducing power outages.
2. Upgrading materials and processes to enhance performance
The application of highly conductive materials, lightweight alloys, and environmentally friendly substrates has become mainstream. In addition, the popularization of precision injection molding, laser welding and other processes has synchronously improved product accuracy and production efficiency, meeting the demand for high-density connections in high-end scenarios such as new energy vehicles and data centers.
3. The trend towards intelligence and customization is accelerating
With the advancement of Industry 4.0, wiring terminals integrate sensors and self diagnostic functions to achieve remote monitoring and status warning. At the same time, customized services have become the core competitiveness. Enterprises develop special terminals such as high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance based on the needs of 5G base stations, smart grids, and other scenarios, promoting the industry's transformation towards high-end.
Development trend: In the future, the terminal block industry will deeply integrate new materials and digital technologies, while improving product reliability and accelerating the process of domestic substitution. With the upgrading of global electrical infrastructure, the market size of the industry is expected to continue to expand, and technological innovation and green manufacturing will become the key to enterprise competition.
