For decades the spring-loaded probe aka pogo-style pin has delivered excellent mechanical and electrical performance in a highly compliant contact. However, this often came at a high cost given that ...

Some components, particularly individual terminals and pins, are poorly suited for pick and place carrier tape packaging due to their geometry. To solve this problem, it’s often necessary to add an ...

PEM® Type PTL2™ spring-loaded plunger assemblies from PennEngineering® serve as positioning pins to move racks, slides, access panels, and consoles to new positions without tools. A lockout feature in ...

The cost could be so exorbitant, in fact, that when significant volumes of pins are required, many opted to utilise less compliant, lower performance alternative contact technologies to reduce costs.

Spring-loaded plungers use a spring and a plunger (or ball tip) to exert a precise and repeatable force. They are a better option than having engineers cobble together an assembly that uses a simple, ...
