Dualok High-Vibration
Dualok is an enhanced anti-decoupling mechanism designed to perform under severe vibration environments. The Dualok system is proven to mitigate the negative effects of high vibration operation by eliminating connector back-off and reducing conditions that can cause fretting corrosion. Dualok is compatible with D38999 Series III receptacles and is qualified to Boeing BACC63EK.
Electrically Conductive Seals
Electrically conductive seals for frequency ranges from 15 kHz to 4 GHz: Seals for square flange sockets for installation type: Front wall and back wall, seals for sockets with single hole mounts, seals for protective caps, seals for D-SUB connectors.
Electro-Mechanical Integration
Full integration, in-house LRU capabilities include aluminum enclosures, rigid, flex, and panel circuit card assemblies, internal/external cable assemblies, integration, and final assembly, and fully functional testing and environmental stress screening (ESS) in order to support our customers with full turnkey solutions.
Electronic Assemblies
Capabilities include automated select solder, press-fit, and hand solder for through hold, single and double-sided BGA's and uBGA's, high-density packages, chip on board, lead-free, and conformal coating (UR, UL, Parylene). Process validation capabilities: 3D Solder Paste Inspection (SPI), Pre and Post-Reflow Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), 3D X-ray, and aqueous and non-aqueous cleaning.
Embedded Phase Tuner
SV Microwave streamlines this with our innovative Embedded Phase Tuner. This component allows customers to independently adjust the phase of cable assemblies without external vendor involvement. The Embedded Phase Tuner operates by adjusting the transmission line length using a threaded coupling nut, simplifying the process.
