A unique prototype press-fit terminal that reduces the number of processes such as solder application and reflow processes.
Conventional connectors used solder to secure pins when mounting them onto printed circuit boards. In contrast, press-fit terminals allow for easy pin mounting by pressing them into the board. This reduces manufacturing processes such as solder application.
One significant reason for the shift towards press-fit terminals is that the reduction of the "solder application" process minimizes the thermal impact on the product. Particularly, circuit boards are sensitive to heat, and certain components may malfunction or have poor connections due to heat generation. By reducing heat generation, quality can be improved.
Thus, there are many advantages to using press-fit terminals, leading to a transition from "solder connections" to "press-fit" in current practices. The benefits of using press-fit terminals include reduced process steps, lower manufacturing costs, stable quality, and reduced environmental impact.
Additionally, the following features characterize our press-fit terminal production:
- High-precision slitting and punching for thin materials
- Proven track record in mass production of press-fit terminals
- Capability to accommodate prototypes of press-fit terminals.
