The company offers them as a set with different flange housings, as a built-in part in blister packaging, or in tape and reel packaging for automated processing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to classic through-hole technology or through-hole reflow process, Binder explained that its SMD contact pins are placed directly on the surface in the surface-mount technology (SMT) process and connected using solder paste instead of inserted through the PCB and then soldered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Binder said this allows for significant space savings. For example, many connectors can be mounted at very small distances in one plane, as is required for passive\/active sensor distributors in automation technology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<article class=\"type-post entry\" aria-label=\"binder\u2019s overmolded cable components meet UL 2238\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>Binder USA is a subsidiary of unit of Franz Binder GmbH &amp; Co.

Binder USA said its products are used around the world in industrial environments for factory automation, process control, and medical technology applications.<\/p>\n<p>In late 2023, the company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.therobotreport.com\/binders-overmolded-cable-components-meet-ul-2238\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expanded<\/a> its 823\/824 product series with K- and L-coded over-molded cable components that meet the UL 2238 standard for North America. Binder said the transmission of electrical power via compact M12 interfaces has become a fundamental requirement.
