Binder extends assembly options for M12 connector range

The company writes:

“Compared to previous designs, the new geometry enables assembly using tools such as torque wrenches for the first time. This allows users to achieve controlled tightening and benefit from increased process reliability as well as consistently high assembly quality – particularly in applications where defined torque is critical.”

Typical application areas include automation technology – sensors & actuators, mechanical engineering and plant construction, as well as any environment where M12 connectors must be installed under defined mechanical conditions.

Binder said the change in response to market demands – that in many industrial environments, standardised and traceable assembly processes are becoming essential. By integrating a hexagonal feature, it says, the connectors can now be tightened in a controlled manner, meeting common industrial specifications.
