2.4mm Connector introduction and process

Connector generally refers to the electrical connector, that is, the device that connects two active devices to transmit current or signal. What we introduce below are mainly 2.4mm connectors.

Basic Classification

According to the nature of use is divided into external connectors and internal connectors.According to the processing method is divided into compression type, crimp type also known as piercing type, welding type, and zero insertion type.According to the use of the way divided into wire-to-board 2.4mm connectors, board-to-board connectors, wire-to-wire 2.4mm connectors, sockets, input and output connectors.

According to the form of PCB board connectors, flat cable connectors, coaxial cable connectors, embedded connectors, crimped connectors, circular connectors, angular connectors, and printed wiring board with connectors.According to the structure, it is divided into general connectors, moisture-resistant and waterproof 2.4mm connectors, environment-resistant connectors, airtight connectors, fire-resistant connectors, and water-resistant connectors.

Production process

We take a 2.4mm connector as an example to introduce the manufacturing process of the connector. The 2.4mm connector manufacturing process generally starts with stamping pins. The electronic connectors are stamped from thin metal strips by means of a large high-speed stamping press. A large roll of metal tape is fed into the front end of the press, and the other end is wound through the hydraulic table of the press into the tape reel, which pulls out the tape and rolls it to stamp the finished product.

After the 2.4mm connector pin stamping is completed, it should be sent to the plating section. At this stage, the electronic contact surface of the connector will be plated with various metal coatings. The connector contact part plating is to improve electrical conductivity, corrosion and wear resistance, improve solderability. Metals with good mechanical properties often do not have excellent electrical conductivity, corrosion and wear resistance, and solderability.

The plastic box holder for 2.4mm connectors is made in the injection molding stage. The usual process is to inject the molten plastic into the metal film and then cool it quickly to form.

The final stage of 2.4mm connector manufacturing is the assembly of the finished product. The plated pins are mated to the injection molded housing in one of two ways: individually or in combination. The individual pairing means that one pin is inserted at a time; the combined pairing will be more than one pin at a time with the box seat.

The trend of the connector

With the development of society and the progress of technology, the connector is also evolving. From the traditional 2.4mm connector to solderless connector, and then solderless 2.4mm connector PCB angled. all reflect the progress of science and technology and the development of the industry.

Miniaturization has become the trend of connector development. Small size, lightweight, and high density have become the new requirements of the market for 2.4mm connectors.High-frequency signal transmission is also a major role of the connector. Low contact impedance, low inductance effect, signal masking good, and signal delay short selector will be more favored by the business.Humanized design is also an automatic connection that can not be avoided. It is especially important to make it easier for the operator to use.
