Vincotech introduces its press fit technology. The modules featuring this pin technology are pressed rather than soldered into the PCB, thus reducing PCB assembly time and costs. The press fit pin design is established in the automotive industry and provides a reliable and gas-tight connection to the PCB. By eliminating the necessity of a solder process for the module, the customer reduces the PCB assembly time and thereby the production costs. A higher production output capacity is the direct consequence.
Further advantages include reuse of the PCB and design flexibility. The module can be removed without damaging the PCB, thus allowing for the reuse of the PCB with a new module. Design flexibility is guaranteed by the elimination of the need for soldering; the module can be mounted on either side of the PCB at no extra cost or effort. Vincotech’s Press Fit Technology is DIN and IEC compliant and available upon request for all proprietary module designs in pin-compatible versions to the current portfolio.
