The housing accepts any electronics package that is mounted on a
circular substrate. With the increased use of robotics in handling
electronics packages, and the size of electronics products
continuing to shrink, the patented design of the miniature SMT
housing offers several advantages. Specifically, the design
increases structural integrity, decreases stress in the solder
joints, provides additional protection and electrically isolates
the assembled leads from one another.
Compact and lightweight, the miniature SMT housing is
manufactured from high-strength, high-temperature-resistant
engineering plastic. Designed for tape and reel packaging, the
housing is compatible with standard pick and place machines,
allowing for precise placement.
“CIRCOR is proud to bring this innovative design to market,”
said CIRCOR Aerospace Vice President Tony Najjar. “With the growing
importance of robotics in the electronics manufacturing process,
this invention further supports our customers’ needs in the area of
high-volume automated assembly.”
