    Pin and Socket Assemblies

    Introduction: Manually placing fields of discrete pins upon a printed circuit board is a poor production PCB assembly strategy. This action is not only tedious and prone to errors but extremely cost-ineffective too. Vertically unstable pins tilt, creating harmful soldering rework...
