ZIF Light Director Fixtures
Acton, MA — CAMI Research and Doyle Manufac- turing have released zero insertion force (ZIF) light director fixtures, providing CableEye® users with increased options for light-guided assem- bly of connectors. CAMI’s Light Director™ system is a Ca-
bleEye accessory that provides a computer- guided technique for assembling connectors used in aerospace, medical and other high-reli- ability applications. This system uses LED-lit fibers to individually illuminate target cavities in the connector being assembled. When the technician enters the wire code
printed on unconnected wires, or touches a wire connected to the other end, the CableEye software turns on the appropriate fiber. This causes a bright, flashing light to project from inside the target cavity, guiding the technician to the proper insertion point. Correct insertion is confirmed by the elimination of light from that location, whereas insertion into an incor- rect location leaves the flashing light visible. Using synthetic speech, Light Director
can read the pin number to the technician, fur- ther reinforcing the target location. Speech can be activated in English, Spanish, French, Ger- man, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Polish, or Turk- ish when a matching generic voice font has been downloaded. Speech recognition is also available as an op- tion permitting the technician to speak wire codes to

the system, eliminating the need for a keyboard or monitor. Normally, technicians crimp pins on wires in advance of assembly to the connector. Wires may
Field testing has shown that the Light Direc-
tor greatly increases accuracy and assembly rate over manual methods, while nearly eliminating er- rors. Because the Light Director greatly re- duces the perceptual challenge of manually lo- cating pin cavities in a complex connector, tech- nician fatigue is greatly reduced, permitting a continuous, high productivity rate throughout the workday. The new zero insertion force Light Direc-
tor fixtures allow for easy and rapid connection and disconnection of the connector being as- sembled so even greater productivity can be achieved. The connector simply slides into place — threaded connectors are not screwed onto the mating interface. Press the top of the fixture lightly to lock, and the lever to release. Customers can order both Light Director
(for light-guided assembly) and electrical test versions of these fixtures. The two types of blocks can be placed next to each other so that the customer can assemble on the Light Direc- tor block and then quickly move the UUT to the other for the electrical test. Or the customer can have them at entirely different stations on
the production line. Contact: CAMI Research, Inc.,
