How automotive connector terminals are produced by high-speed stamping machines

  The production of automotive connector terminals mainly includes the following steps:

    Stamping and moulding: using a large high-speed stamping machine, metal sheets are stamped into metal parts such as connector pins. During this process, the precision and stability of the mould need to be strictly controlled to ensure the precision and consistency of the product. One end of the metal strip is fed into the front end of the stamping press, and the other end passes through the hydraulic table of the press and wraps into the winding wheel to stamp out the finished terminals.

     Electroplating treatment: After stamping is completed, the connector pins need to be sent to the electroplating stage. At this stage, the electronic contact surface of the connector will be plated with various metal coatings, such as nickel-plated, tin-plated, etc., to prevent oxidation and enhance electrical conductivity.

   In addition, during the stamping and plating process, stringent quality testing is required to ensure that the product meets the standards. Ultimately, after a series of processes, the automotive connector terminals will be used in the electrical system of the vehicle to fulfil the functions of electrical connection and signal transmission1.
