PEM Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Fasteners: How They Work, Benefits & Applications

Image
  In the world of modern electronics manufacturing, Surface Mount Technology (SMT) fasteners are a game-changer—especially for printed circuit board (PCB) assembly. Leading the innovation in this space is PEM , known for precision-engineered SMT fasteners that streamline production and ensure high-performance connections. 🔧 What is Surface Mount Technology (SMT) for Fasteners? SMT fasteners are mechanical components soldered directly onto PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) during the reflow soldering process. Unlike traditional through-hole methods, SMT fasteners don't require drilled holes or mechanical force for installation. Instead, they rely on solder paste, which melts during heating to form a secure, conductive bond. This method allows components like surface mount standoffs, nuts, and panel fasteners to be placed quickly and accurately—using standard pick-and-place machines before reflow. ⚙️ How SMT Fasteners Work During SMT assembly: Solder paste is applied to ...

How to Keep Your Cables Secure

  Smarter Cable Management with Clamps and Clips Managing cables doesn’t have to mean bundling them tightly with cable ties. In fact, there are smarter, more versatile solutions that provide better security, organization, and longevity — and those are cable clamps and clips. With the vast variety of cables in the market — differing in size, material, flexibility, and purpose — identifying the right securing method can feel overwhelming. That’s where cable clamps and clips come in, offering a customizable, reliable solution for virtually every application. Why Use Clamps and Clips Instead of Cable Ties? While cable ties are quick to apply, they don’t offer adjustability or long-term flexibility. Clamps and clips , on the other hand, can: Accommodate different cable shapes and sizes Offer reusability and repositioning Reduce the risk of damaging cables Enable a cleaner, more professional installation Choose the Right Clamp or Clip for the Job Depending on your env...
