News Release: A variety of M12 connectors are now available in versions designed for surface mount technology (SMT), allowing you to streamline and automate your processes.
Camarillo, California— Binder, a leading supplier of industrial circular connectors, offers several M12 series products as surface mount devices (SMD). These are especially suitable for further processing in fully automated processes, such as double-sided assembly of high-density PCBs. They are also used in automation technology devices, sensors, actuators and robotics.
Features:
- Number of poles: 4, 6, 8
- Coding: A, B, D, X coding
- Protection class: IP67
- Compact and easy to automate
application:
- Factory automation and process automation
- instrumentation
- robotics
- sensors and actuators
SMD: space-saving and economical processing possible
With the miniaturization of electronic assemblies, surface mount has proven to be effective for component assemblies with high component density. In contrast to traditional through-hole technology (THT) or through-hole reflow (THR) processes, SMD contact pins are placed directly on the surface in the SMT process using solder paste rather than being inserted into the PCB. will be connected. Soldered. This allows for significant space savings. For example, many connectors can be installed in one plane and over very short distances, as is required for passive/active sensor distributors in automation technology.
A diverse lineup from binders to SMT products
Binder SMT products are available in versions with 4, 6 and 8 contacts and various codings. Both shielded and unshielded versions are available. M12 connectors are also available in different versions. For example, it is supplied as a set with various flange housings, as an integral part of a blister package, or as a tape and reel package for automated handling.
All Binder’s M12 products offer industry-relevant protection against dust and water to IP67. Binder variants are based on current market standards for PCB drilling patterns, so switching to Binder products is almost effortless.
