We Revolutionized an Industry with Our Leadframe & Hybrid Edge Clips over 30 Years Ago
The requirement for inexpensive packaging for surface mounted electronic circuit designs in the hybrid industry during the 1970s resulted in the development of leads for attaching directly to the substrate. The ensuing advances of leads formed in a long continuous strip (known as leadframe or lead frame) enabled manufacturers to custom tailor their circuits to the application.
Next came the development of the edge clip, which is a mechanical means of holding the lead in place on the edge of the substrate until solder can be applied to create the solder fillet that permanently attach the lead to the pad on the circuit board or device. Die-Tech was on the fore-front of bringing this type of product to the world and helping to revolutionize the electronics industry. And we continue to help our customers delevop new and better ways of meeting their assembly challenges.
Made to Order Standard Products or Custom Designs for Your Application
Looking for a precision metal stamping for your application? Various leadframe and edge clip configurations are available from Die-Tech's open tooling, the best choice will depend upon your application. Here are examples of currently tooled products which are typically supplied on continuous carrier strips in quanities of 40,000 to 100,000 parts per reel (all standard products have minimum order requirements):
If these standard products don't quite fit the bill, our engineering department is ready to help you develop custom designs.
