Requests when using an inspection connector
The socket replacement frequency largely depends on how the connector is handled
during inspection.
In order to reduce the replacement frequency of the inspection connector, positioning
accuracy of fitting the connectors needs to be maintained for reducing the wear of the
molded resin.
(1)Key point for increasing the insertion and removal life (Machine fitting and
separation)
When connector mating is carried out mechanically, the following items need to
be considered in order to ensure reliable positional accuracy on both sides of each
tested object.
- For the purpose of absorbing a positional misalignment on each set, the test jig
should be equipped with a floating mechanism, which can be adjusted in the X,
Y and axis.
- The floating mechanism should effectively work during insertion.
- Based on the dimensional constraints of the connector insertion guide, the
inspection jig should be designed to ensure that misalignment during fitting is
limited to
- The connector on the fixed jig side should be correctly realigned at the
reference point after every replacement.
- Parallel insertion and separation movements need to be ensured during
connector fitting.
- Slow insertion movements reduce wear on the connector's molded part and
increase the service life of the jig-side connector.
- Please confirm that a slow insertion action effectively activates the insertion
guide and ensures the parallel insertion of the two connectors.
