The connector housing must be strong enough to cope with the environmental conditions of the application. Because the connector must be able to withstand the application temperature range and processing temperature, such as the temperature encountered during reflow soldering, and is expected to be used outdoors, the housing should resist UV radiation. Therefore, the connector housing should be made of tough zinc alloy or aluminum alloy die casting to protect the connector from damage caused by external impact.
According to the shape, the connector is divided into circular electrical connectors and rectangular electrical connectors; according to the structure, it is divided into threaded connection, bayonet (quick) connection, card lock connection, push-pull connection, straight plug connection, etc.; according to the purpose, it is divided into automotive connectors; household electronic connectors; smart home connectors, etc.
Using the three major elements of machines, molds and aluminum alloys/zinc alloys, pressure, speed and time are unified. The connector housing produced by this method is efficient, simple in process, high in die-casting tolerance, smooth in surface, can save a lot of mechanical processing processes and equipment, save raw materials, and has now become an important part of Chinese casting industry.
