wiecon wiecon PC board connectors and pluggable connectors for the Through Hole Reflow (THR) process Perfect Performance. Today PC boards are our daily companions. Although they often go unnoticed, they are still present in a wide range of devices, simplifying our everyday lives. The broad variety of applications in which they are used requires many different components in a myriad of designs. PC boards provide the connection between the various components located on them. Components are fixed in their positions and can be soldered to the PC board in a variety of manufacturing techniques. Maintaining profitability during the manufacturing process is a continuous challenge. 2 Perfect Performance.

Printing (solder) Automated assembly SMD SMT components During this manufacturing process, the solder tails of the wired components are inserted into holes in the PC board. These holes must first be drilled into the board. The various components (capacitors, transistors, resistors, Integrated Circuits (ICs)) require different preparatory procedures during which the solder tails are bent and cut to fit into the mounting holes in the PC board. The components are usually mounted manually: automated assembly is seldom used. After the components have been prepared and mounted to the board, the...

With longer pin lengths (2.5 mm), the solder joints can be inspected and evaluated in accordance with IPC-A-610C. Comparing solder joints from the wave soldering bath with those of THR, the THR connections appear somewhat thinner since the soldering meniscus is less developed. This property must be evaluated from a quality assurance standpoint and defined...
