Insulation Displacement Connection (IDC)

JEM Electronics has the capabilities to assemble insulation displacement connections of high quality and reliability.  Insulation displacement connection (IDC) is a method for terminating an insulated wire to a connector or terminal without pre-stripping the insulation from the connector.  Insulation displacement connectors provide a quick, reliable assembly of terminations to flat ribbon cables and discrete wires. JEM Electronics has years of experience working with insulation displacement connections, and has acquired and built the process tooling necessary to perform reliable insulation displacement connections.  Using the correct tooling ensures a repeatable process and thereby reduces potential assembly errors.

JEM Electronics 100% quality tests every insulation displacement connection assembled.  We test for variations in wire gauge, wire-to-wire spacing, insulation thickness, insulation type, application tooling, and alignment of the cable to the connector to prevent any unreliable connections or electrical open or short circuits.

Furthermore, JEM Electronics’ manufacturing facilities have been certified to meet the standards of ISO 9001, and we also have been registered by UL and CSA to manufacture product meeting the UL/CSA safety requirements.  JEM trains and certifies its personnel to the latest IPC standard (IPC-A-620), ensuring that a high standard of workmanship and quality is maintained for every insulation displacement connection we assemble.
