SMT (Surface Mount Technology) process is a modern module manufacturing process, focusing on cost-optimization through a fully automated process. PCB connectors suitable for THR (Through Hole Reflow) soldering method are loaded onto tape-on-reel packaging, which integrates these components into the automated SMT process. Dinkle offers tape-on-reel packaging method for PCB sockets ranging from pitches 3.5 mm to 7.62 mm, meeting the PCB requirements for SMT process. Vacuum nozzle or mechanical gripper tape-on-reel options are both available. With suction method, you have two options available for vertical or horizontal position depending on your application requirement.
