Through-Hole PCB Assembly Mixed Technology Component Sourcing
Turnkey Manufacturing ENIG ISO9001 HTF
HTF provides comprehensive through-hole PCB assembly services with
integrated mixed technology capability and complete component
sourcing, supporting products that combine surface mount and
through-hole components where connectors, power devices,
transformers, electrolytic capacitors, relays, and other leaded
components must coexist with fine-pitch surface mount circuitry.
Our through-hole assembly operation combines automated axial and
radial component insertion equipment for high-volume repetitive
placements with skilled manual assembly stations for complex
connectors, large transformers, heat-sinked power semiconductors,
and other components requiring human judgment for proper seating,
mechanical alignment, and lead forming before soldering. The mixed
technology flow sequences SMT components first through paste
printing, placement, and reflow soldering, followed by through-hole
insertion and soldering through either wave soldering for boards
with predominantly through-hole components on the solder side, or
selective soldering with programmable nozzle positioning for boards
where through-hole components are interspersed among SMT components
that cannot tolerate a second thermal cycle. This sequenced
approach ensures each component type receives the soldering process
best suited to its technology while protecting previously placed
components from thermal or mechanical damage. Our selective
soldering system applies solder precisely to individual
through-hole joints with miniature nozzle positioning, avoiding the
thermal stress and solder bridging risk of exposing SMT components
to full wave soldering.
Key Features- Complete Through-Hole Capability: Automated axial and radial insertion plus skilled manual assembly
for complex connectors, large magnetics, and power semiconductors.
- Mixed Technology Sequencing: SMT reflow first, through-hole insertion and soldering second with
process selection between wave and selective soldering based on
board design.
- Selective Soldering: Programmable miniature nozzle positioning applying solder to
individual through-hole joints without exposing SMT components to
thermal stress.
- Wave Soldering: Dual-wave with turbulent first wave for penetration and smooth
second wave for finish, preventing icicle and bridge formation.
- Lead Forming: Component lead cutting, forming, and pre-tinning ensuring correct
standoff height, stress relief, and solderability before placement.
- Conformal Coating: Post-assembly application using acrylic, silicone, polyurethane,
or epoxy for environmental protection in demanding operating
environments.
- Turnkey Sourcing: Complete procurement through authorized channels with MSD
handling, ESD protection, and lot-level traceability.

ApplicationsHTF through-hole assembly serves power electronics including AC-DC
supplies, DC-DC converters, motor drives, and solar inverters
requiring large electrolytic capacitors, transformers, and
high-current terminal blocks. Industrial control equipment
including PLC modules with terminal block connectors and relay
output cards requires mixed technology combining SMT digital
circuitry with through-hole power components. Automotive
electronics including ECU power stages and onboard chargers demand
through-hole assembly for high-reliability connectors and power
devices. Telecom equipment including base station amplifiers and RF
filter assemblies utilize mixed technology for products where
connectors and power transistors require through-hole mounting for
mechanical integrity and thermal management.
