We use two Streckfuss wave solder machines. They are pretty small depending on your needs. Maybe not the best, but being local and since we use a lot of their forming equipment, it works out well

No, No, I'm sorry I can't. I still haven't stopped laughing. Streckfuss, Beautiful.

In my previous life these lead forming machines were my favorites (very reliable). http://www.streckfuss.com/lead_form.htm#Radial%20Cut%20and%20Form

Adding to Mike's comments. There are two types of selective wave soldering machines. * Chimney type, like the AirVac and Wenesco that Mike used. They use a boot to funnel the solder to the component to be soldered. * Programmable head type [ie, ERS

No, experience, but a couple of comments are: * Your 2mm leads are proabably not ment to be trimmed. Consider returning these and buying components with shorter leads. [We know, we know. You have to build this piece of junk right NOW!!!! B-)] * I

| | I am examining cut & form PTH component prep equipment to help in our manual PTH insertion process. We need the ability to process both axial & radial with snap-in and stand-off capability. Low volume with the ability to feed bulk, T&R, or Stick.

We agree with Paul. If you prepare the components differently, so that they snap into place, you do not need to trim after wave. Most rotary trimmers put a HUGE amount of stress on solder connections, potentially cracking the connections. Some of
