Espelkamp, 23 April 2024 - har-flex Board IDC is the new compact and especially flat board-to-board connection solution for ribbon cables from HARTING . It complements the previous har-flex ribbon cable solution with two detachable connectors. The new har-flex Board IDC version features a detachable connector on one side with the other end of the cable permanently fixed to the PCB on the other. This permanently connected end excels on account of its especially low height, for deployment in compact devices with limited installation space. Optional strain relief provides the necessary strength and reliability when it comes to movements or vibration in demanding applications.
Like all har-flex series models, the Board IDC version is also flexibly available in all numbers of poles from 6-50. It can either be assembled with the aid of a hand-held tool (6-16 poles) or automatically with the aid of a pressing machine. The har-flex Board IDC supports flexible, compact designs for any PCB spacing for stepless numbers of contacts from 6 - 50. This means that users do not have to buy more contacts and incorporate them in the device design than required for the actual application. Users receive an optimal solution for the simple replacement of specific sub-assemblies in devices – including during services.
Lower costs thanks to fewer components, fewer precious metals and less complexity underline the advantages of the new har-flex version.
