Rudy,

 

Do you have a plating system that can reliably plate to the Nitinol and subsequently be reliably soldered??

 

You meant this, right? "I have doubts about the long term performance of any connection not based on soldering"?  

In a related world, we do a lot with Nitinol.   Based on our experience with Nitinol, I have doubts about the long term performance of any connection not based on soldering.   Nitinol is a high fraction Titanium, and when the Titanium grows an oxide, the resistance soars, to the point where it is practically non-conducting.
