ABSTRACT:
An armature for electromagnetic launchers is provided with multiple conductive fibers which form a multi-contact interface with the launcher rails. The fibers are attached to an insulating armature support and can extend across the launcher bore or be attached to contact faces of a trailing conductive chevron. Transposition of the fibers reduces electrical skin effect within the armature.
