Surface-Mount Device technology
We have developed and refined different production processes to (mounted on the PCB)
enable us to make bobbins with their own specific characteristics and
properties. There are two printed circuit board mounting technologies > Gullwing-shaped pins – another ‘in-moulding’
(through-hole and surface-mount), and for each we have two separate process similar to that described above but
production techniques. employing a leadframe. Once the moulding has
taken place, the redundant leadframe metal is cut
off, leaving the gullwing pins protruding from the bobbin.
Pin through-hole technology (mounted in the PCB) > C-shaped pins – a ‘C-shaped’ pin makes the bobbin easier to wind,
so our SMD bobbins are usually made this way. C-pins are also
> In-moulded pins – specially shaped pins are inserted in the mould thicker and wider than most gullwing pins, and therefore stronger.
prior to injection, so that when the material flows around them,
100 per cent fixation is guaranteed. This in turn, ensures excellent
positioning and fixation in the PCB. The pins have a
square-shaped base to prevent the wire slipping
during wrapping.
