2mm 2x20 SMT header | 10 February, 1999

Does anyone have experience placing a Pinrex 2mm 2x20 SMT header. The dimensions of the part are as follows: length 40mm (1.58"), width 6mm (.236"), height 5.35mm (.211"), pitch 2mm (.079"). If so, what type of centering are you using? Any advice would be appreciated.

You'll have to have a special nozzle made in order to pick the header from the feeder. The nozzle should pick the part throught the pins on the plastic body. I had once a nozzle made for the same application and placed the parts without any further alignment, because the alignment of the parts in the track of the vib. feeder was sufficient.
