Mario, If you are looking for a cheap press to do press fit connectors, then you are asking for trouble. Now, and in the long run. ASG out of West Palm Beach makes a very good press. We bought a 5 ton version and are able to press up to about 2500

Hi, Does anybody know where I could get a cheap but efficient press for press fit connectors (200pins and up)? Pneumatic or Hand lever Mario

Hi, we do Sn plated I/O pinning insertion into Ni/Au thru' holes. no problems here so far, as we cater for the "interference" (fit-allowances) of the I/O pin into the thru' diameter, via improved PCB thru' hole designs. before this cater/considerati

Is anyone has experience on problems with press-fit on Ni/Au board finish. Connectors pins are SnPb finished. I am particulary interested by experiences or documentation in very agressive environmental conditions (avionics or space buisness) Thanks r

General comments are: * First place I would look is the supplier of the pins that you are trying to install. Most suppliers that sell press fit components have done a good deal of work to qualify the component and will have all the specifications yo

Hello Floyd, Yes, special tooling is required. The tooling usually consists of a press, push-in tooling and support plate tooling. The presses can range from relatively simple arbor type presses to automated hydraulic presses with sophisticated con

Accuracy of the arbor press might be made better by tightening the adjustable gibs on the ram if any. If you can use support under the board have the ID of the support just slightly larger than the pins being pressed. Janesville Tool makes an accura

Are you using specific tooling for each part, or just generic? If so it could be pushing down at an angle and slightly tearing the PCB. We use the same style press as you but make custom fixtures to fit each connector and hold each PCB tight.

How do we do press fit component rework ? I have connectors with 700 pins, and the rework part is a headache. What is the best method ? Thanks in advance.

Sal: If it�s not the PCB, what about the connector itself ? Is it from a different production lot with some unregularities ( dimensions, tolerances, pin alignment, material weakness)? How about handling, storage, shipping causes ? Could it be a tooli
