On-board connector production process

The on-board connector is a miniature coupling plug and socket that can directly connect power and signals between printed circuit boards (PCBs) through pin pins. It can provide reliable pluggable connections for printed circuit boards, and is one of the connector products with the strongest transmission capability among all connector product types.

TXGA is a professional board connector manufacturer, providing customers with precise and reliable board connectors for 16 years. To purchase high-quality on-board connectors, click [on-board connectors] to place an order immediately.

The process of producing on-board connectors can be roughly divided into four steps:

1. Stamping

The production process of board-to-board connectors generally starts with punching pins, and passes through a large high-speed punching machine. The connectors (pins) are punched from thin metal strips. One end of the large coiled metal strip is fed into the front end of the punching machine, and the other end passes through it. The reel is wound on the hydraulic worktable of the punching machine, and the metal belt is pulled out by the reel and the product is rolled out.

2. Electroplating

After the connector pin is stamped, it should be sent for electroplating. At this stage, the electrical contact surface of the connector will be plated with various metal coatings. A type of problem similar to the stamping stage, such as the distortion, chipping or deformation of the pins, will also appear during the process of feeding the stamped pins into the electroplating equipment, and the quality defects are easily detected.

3. Injection

The plastic box seat of the electronic connector is made in the injection molding stage. Usually the molten plastic is injected into the metal fetal film, and then rapidly cooled to form. The failure of the molten plastic to completely fill the tire membrane is a typical defect that needs to be detected during the injection molding stage. Other defects include the sockets being filled or partially blocked (the sockets must be kept clean and unobstructed so that they can be correctly connected to the pins during the final assembly). Since the use of the backlight can easily identify the missing box seat and the plugging of the socket, the machine vision system for quality inspection after injection molding is relatively simple and easy to implement.

4. Assemble

The final stage of electronic connector manufacturing is finished product assembly. There are two ways to connect the electroplated pins to the injection box seat: individual mating or combined mating. Individual mating means inserting one pin at a time, and combined mating means that multiple pins are simultaneously connected to the box seat at a time. No matter what kind of connection method is adopted, the manufacturer requires that all the pins are tested for defects and correct positioning during the assembly stage. Another type of conventional inspection task is related to the measurement of the distance between the mating surfaces of the connector.
