Abstract
Contact strips are obtained by segmenting a secondary strip of contacts fabricated from a metal ribbon in which openings are formed with an original regular pitch to form a discontinuous central strip of blades. Each blade is twisted to produce a primary contact strip. The method further includes pleating the primary strip and a hardening heat treatment, and begins with the following operations: the ribbon is metal-plated on both sides to cover at least the central strip with a layer of a metal that is a good electrical conductor, openings are formed in the ribbon, and each blade is twisted. It then includes the following successive operations: the primary strip is pleated, the hardening heat treatment is then applied to produce the secondary contact strip, and the secondary strip is segmented into a plurality of contact strips.
