SMC at a Glance
Completely Automated
Manufacturing of SMC
Connectors
SMC connectors are manufactured using
controlled state of the art automated
manufacturing equipment.
Quality Check
A full inspection of the female contact
apertures and coplanarity of our SMC
connectors guarantees maximum reliability
for your printed circuit boards.
Safe Packaging for Fully Auto-
mated Assembly
The antistatic tape and reel packaging
not only protects the high-precision
contacts of our SMC connectors, but
also permits placement of connectors by
automated pick and place equipment.
Easy Recognition and Secure
Handling
The black insulation body ensures easy visual
recognition by the automatic pick and place
equipment.
Reliable Insertion and Removal
The metal SMT mounting clip ensures a
reliable connection to the printed circuit
board. As a result of its special design, it
can handle high insertion and withdrawal
forces. The integrated metal clips are sol-
dered during the SMT process, thus elimi-
nating the need for an additional operation
such as rivets.
Controlled SMT Reflow
Soldering Process
The heat-resistant thermoplastic insulation
body and precision coplanar contacts
permit a controlled SMT soldering process.
