With the development of technology, the development cycle of new products and new equipment is getting shorter and shorter. How to use the fastest speed to launch products recognized by the market is the key for enterprises to win in the fierce market competition. Among them, prototyping can help development teams find and solve problems at an early stage, avoiding major problems after the product goes to market, and modularity and flexibility are becoming increasingly important.
In the process of equipment development, due to the large differences between different devices, the available standard parts are often limited. This not only increases the difficulty of device development, but can also lead to some potential problems. For example, in order to provide more options, component suppliers often need a lot of inventory.
Today, trends such as miniaturization of devices and new architectures are driving the need for new connectivity models. As a result, connector and other component manufacturers want to provide their customers with more choice of specifications, but it is clearly not cost-effective to stock a range of new products for each particular solution. Only when the purchase volume is large, it is feasible to customize new products and stock stock for customer special solutions. Otherwise, even if standard parts are used for adaptation, the equipment development cycle is still too long.
Development engineers of electronic industrial equipment often face the problem that the transmission of data, signals and power must be from one PCB to another, and most existing connectivity solutions do not meet this need.
In this context, Harting har-modular® PCB connectors came into being. With modular combinations, the connector offers more than a billion possibilities for data, signal and power combinations, perfectly meeting the urgent need for modularity, flexibility and speed in device development. Harting har-modular® PCB connectors are not only another specification in the largest DIN 41612 portfolio on the market, but also a fully customer-configurable plug connection with great potential for future development.
