I am not sure if I have seen an article comparing solder joint strength Vs pressfit although I am sure this has been researched by literally hundreds of companies before they felt comfortable going to pressfit. I know one of the issues with solder is

Andrew, As I read about issues with reworking connectors, whether they are surface mount or PTH soldered, I wonder if compliant pin pressfit connectors are being considered. They are easily assembled after all SMT without any thermal input, and on e

The basic principle of a press-fit connection is that a contact terminal is pressed into a printed circuit board (PCB). There are two types of press-fit pins – the solid pin with a solid press-in zone and the compliant pin with an elastic press-in zone. In this article, we’ll discuss the elastic press-in zone.

07 November 2019 – Seoul, South Korea – Over the past years Koh Young Technology’s drive to not only satisfy but to exceed our customers’ expectations lead to further innovations and a wider range of product portfolio. For the first time visitors of the Productronica show can experience Koh Young’s newest and full range Product Line. From Front to Backend production Koh Young will show a wide range of not only SPI and AOI, but also Machining Optical Inspection (MOI), Automated Pin and Terminal Inspection (API), and more. Koh Young, the leading 3D measurement-based inspection solutions provider, is delivering also in this year’s Productronica new levels of inspection capabilities.

More and more people and things are using electronic devices to communicate. Subsequently, many electronic products, in particular mobile base stations and core network nodes, need to handle enormous amounts of data per second. One important link in this communication chain is high speed pressfit connectors that are often used to connect mother boards and back planes in core network nodes. These new high speed pressfit connectors have several hundreds of thin, short and weak pins that are prone to damage. Small variations in via hole dimensions or hole plating thickness affect the connections; if the holes are too small, the pins may be bentor permanently deformed and if the holes are too large they will not form gas tight connections.The goal of this project was to understand how rework of these new high speed pressfit connectors affects connection strengths, hole wall deformations and plating cracks.
) Press-fit technology is a proven and widely us
