Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of PCBA board clamping tooling, in particular to a universal PCBA board clamping device for high-speed optical modules. Background Art

[0002] The production and repair process of high-speed optical modules requires the use of a large number of jigs and devices for support and clamping. The most common part of these jigs and devices is the clamping of the PCBA board.

[0003] In conventional designs, specialized clamping devices are designed for PCBAs of varying sizes. Specifically, specialized clamping devices are designed for different projects and PCBAs of varying sizes and layouts to support and clamp the boards during fabrication and rework. Due to the large number of product lines and the rapid changes in project plans based on chip supply and market demand, the extensive use of specialized clamping devices, particularly during the prototype design phase, can double the design workload and significantly extend response times. Furthermore, when projects encounter obstacles, a large number of specialized fixtures and devices become unused and wasteful. Therefore, the development of a universal PCBA clamping device is imperative. This can significantly save costs, accelerate R&D and prototype preparation, and reduce design workload—achieving multiple goals at once. Utility Model Content
