Our Patented PCB Card Magnetic Connector Technology
At Onanon, we live for innovation. Through dedicated research and development, our team constantly advances connector technology to simplify, strengthen, and streamline connectivity across industries. Our latest breakthrough in magnetic connector technology (now patented!) focuses on PCB connections, exemplifying our commitment to creating solutions that challenge convention and meet the practical demands of today’s medical and industrial markets.
Transforming Edge Connector Technology with Magnetic Coupling
Traditional edge card connectors rely on mechanical features like contact pins and weld tabs to ensure a strong connection between a PCB (male) and device (female) connector. These methods often require substantial insertion force, leading to wear over time.
Recognizing the limitations of this conventional design, our engineers developed a unique magnetic connector solution that uses magnetic attraction to guide and secure connections. This innovation replaces mechanical friction with magnetic precision, making the process effortless while enhancing connection stability and durability.
With this magnetic connector solution, we deliver a smoother, easier experience for securing PCBs, requiring less physical force and offering robust retention strength, ideal for high-demand applications.
Our MagConnect® technology reflects Onanon’s dedication to creating medical connectors and other specialized connectivity solutions that meet the most stringent performance standards.
Key Advantages of Onanon’s Magnetic Connector Design
– Simplified Insertion Process: By integrating magnets within both the PCB edge (male) and receiving device (female) connectors, our magnetic connectors create a gentle, secure connection without excessive mechanical force. This ensures effortless insertion, streamlining the user experience.
– Enhanced Retention Strength: Once in place, the magnetic force maintains a secure hold, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection. The result is a durable, low-maintenance connection designed to withstand frequent use—an essential feature for medical connectors and other high-reliability applications.
– Orientation Control with Magnetic Fields: Our magnetic connector design incorporates orientation control to prevent improper alignment. If misaligned, magnetic repulsion ensures the connector won’t engage, ensuring the PCB connects only when correctly positioned.
How It Works
– Magnetic Couplers: Magnets are integrated into both the PCB edge (male) and device slot (female), creating a robust magnetic bond when connected.
– Reduced Insertion Force: Magnetic attraction between the two halves reduces the need for mechanical force, lowering wear on both PCB and connector components.
– Orientation Assurance: Magnetic fields are configured to repel if improperly aligned, ensuring the connector only mates in the correct orientation.
Applications for Onanon’s Magnetic Connector Technology in The Medical Device Industry
Our innovative technology is particularly valuable in industries where secure, low-wear, and user-friendly connections are essential.
– Medical Imaging Equipment: Devices like MRI machines, CT scanners, and portable ultrasound equipment rely on modular, replaceable PCB systems that require secure yet easily serviceable connections. Onanon’s medical connectors allow technicians to streamline maintenance and component replacement, enhancing device longevity and serviceability.
