SMT Socket Housing with Precision Metal Bending

This advanced SMT socket housing uses 0.5mm stainless steel formed with ultra-tight 90° bends—achieved through multi-stage tooling and pre-score lines. Our design eliminates deformation and distortion, enabling housing widths narrower than material thickness—a known industry challenge.

Key to this breakthrough is the integration of pressure ribs at each station, maintaining bend accuracy even at micron levels. This level of precision metal bending ensures mechanical fitment and electromagnetic performance for space-constrained PCBs.


Zero-Burr PCB Shielding with Tear-Free Edges

To achieve zero-burr PCB shielding, we apply a proprietary upward shearing and pneumatic ejection technique. The result: ±0.05mm dimensional tolerance and scratch-free edges (Ra ≤ 0.4μm). Our tear-form punch structure removes the need for R-angle clearances, preventing EMI leakage at pin contacts and preserving circuit integrity.

This smooth, burr-free finish is critical for connectors in 5G RF modules, GPU sockets, and SSD shields, where debris or misalignment could compromise data flow or mechanical retention.


Applications Across 5G, IoT, and Medical Devices

Our SMT socket housing is the ideal choice for:

  • 5G/6G infrastructure: base station RF module shielding, high-frequency sockets

  • Industrial IoT boards: edge computing device interfaces, real-time sensor housings

  • Consumer electronics: high-speed GPU connectors, SSD PCB covers

  • Medical devices: ultra-compact wearable and diagnostic PCBs

With electromagnetic shielding, mechanical retention, and ultra-fine pin-spacing accuracy (±0.03mm), the part supports high-speed data, RF stability, and mechanical reliability.


Fully Automated Production with Rapid Customization

Our in-line optical inspection guarantees 100% pin alignment. Combined with robotic ejection and press-control systems, we ensure consistency across high-volume orders.

We offer:

  • Custom pin pitches and cutout geometry

  • 7-day prototype turnaround

  • Tungsten punch inserts for sharp, tear-free edge formation

This is precision metal bending brought into scalable, automated manufacturing.
