Automatic or robotic pick and place equipment can pick up and place surface mount style components on a printed circuit board faster and more accurately than previous technology would allow. Instead of a terminal passing through a printed circuit board and being soldered on the opposite side, surface mount components utilize a flat solderable surface that is soldered to a flat solderable pad on the face of the printed circuit board. The pad on the circuit board is usually coated with a paste like formulation of solder and flux. With careful placement, surface mount style components on solder paste will stay in position until elevated temperatures, usually from an infrared oven, melt the solder paste and solder the mount's flat terminals to the circuit board's pad. Surface mount devices (SMDs) are used in a growing number of electronic designs that is why PIHER, in its continous strive to offer new solutions, already developed the N6S, N/S/E-15S, CS11 and now launches the PS-15 that with its 10K cycles standard mechanical life is ideal for control applications. PIHER offers complete design-in engineering services that can supply variations of the PS-15 to meet customer specifications.
