PCB connector for fast-on IGBT terminal

PCB connector for fast-on IGBT terminal

(OP)
Hello,
I'm looking for a fast-on connector which could be adapted on one side to a standard IGBT 2.8x0.5 mm terminal, and on the other end to a PCB.
Has anyone ever heard of this ?
Thank you in advance

Thank you Sreid. I had this solution previoulsy but I don't like it too much, as when you put 4 of them onto one PCB you always have the risk in production that one is not properly inserted. That's why I was looking more for a sort of locator guide around the connector for correct positionning.

Ain't gonna find one...

How about making a simple jig that holds them all in position that you drop on the boards during production.

You could use phenolic or some other plastic.  Find a place that will route them on an xyz router, or a water jet cutter.

Or you can design a circuit board with no traces that is just the right size to jig your connectors then just have a board house pump out 100 or two that your assembler can drop over the connectors before wave soldering.
