Range of applications for the
bottom tool
One bottom tool can be used to assemble connectors
with straight or angled press-in terminations.
When pressing in the connectors with angled press-in
terminations the positioning pins remain in the bottom
tool and serve as guide pins for the connector.
By rotating the bottom tool in steps of 90° and relocating
the positioning pins it is possible to assemble half-length
connectors with angled press-in terminations.
Bottom tool (narrow version)
In addition to the square bottom tool with multi-
functional properties, HARTING offers the alternative
of a narrow bottom tool for assembling connectors
with straight press-in terminations. This tool supports
the pcb within the press-in connector zone and
therefore makes it possible to assemble connectors
where electronic components are to be placed in
close proximity.
Guide frame
The guide frame screwed to the base plate ensures
the correct positioning of the pcb in rela tion to the top
and bottom tools and permits a much higher rate of
assembly.
Both guide rails are adjustable to accommodate
various pcb sizes.
A spring-loaded supporting rail lifts the pcb away from
the bottom tool after the press-in operation ensuring
that no damage occurs to the conductors as it passes
through the machine.
