StripFeeder Modular (.mod) system v. 2 is for loading tape-and-reel components onto compact modules for prototyping and high-mix, low-volume applications. Features a mechanical lock-spring to hold tape in place by the sprocket hole for part registration and repeatable pick-and-place applications. Removable rails accommodate different tape sizes in the same feeder. Adjustable by removing rails and repositioning them on base plate at desired width (4mm pitched hole pattern). Rails align with pin locaters and lock down with magnets.

FH35C Series 0.3mm pitch (FPC) flexible printed circuit connector supports high-speed transmissions and provides high retention forces. Back flip style actuator utilizes dual-sided FPC and helps to achieve impedance characteristics. Mounted depth 3.2 mm. Bottom-side features fully-enclosed molded structure for added protection to the contacts. Contacts have additional nickel barrier to prevent solder wicking. Clearance between contacts and housing designed to prevent capillary migration of flux from SMT leads to contact points. Features rugged actuator that confirms when locking function has been completed. Mounted profile of 0.9mm. Come in 9 to 51 positions (9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 45, 49, 51), with an operating temperature range from –55° to +85°C. Complies with halogen-free requirements and is RoHS compliant.
