Nov. 4, 2021 - binder USA announced a new two-pieceM12 circular connector offers versatility with several special features including: square-flange housing for easy assembly, multi-position, lockable A-coding that supports variable cable installation. The new connectors simplify secure sensor and actuator connections in applications such as factory automation and robotics. The connector’s innovative two-part design enables user friendly, safe assembly. The square-flange variants of binder’s 763 series consist of the metal flange housing and a contact carrier equipped with a lockable coding nose, which can be rotated in 45° increments.
