Hello to all, I would like to know if some of you know where can I get spare parts for TDK Radial insertion machine VC-4H or if you know some web page handling support for this kind of machines, I will apreciate any information and support received.

Hello all, we are about to modify a Universal Radial 5 so the machine will be able to insert radial components with lead pitch 3.5mm and 5mm. The 3.5mm components are ELCOs which are getting inserted all the way to the component body so they sit fi

On mixed technology PCBs, we find numerous blow holes on the solder joints of radial parts (electrolytics, LEDs, etc). The solution that works so far is to cut the leads very long in the radial inserter so that the part is kinda loose and the air in

We had the same problem years ago when we started using a radial inserter. The inserter would dutyfully insert and clinch the leads. The problem in our case was the component body sealing to the fab, especially on electrolytics caps with a film jac

Manufacturing already tried to get a design change but no chance. I guess because the designer is afraid the components could get bent too much if they are mounted with a stand off. Of course everyone who has to manufacture this fist sais: why don't

Wow. Never have, never would, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be done. Mostly it just seems impossible to design a carrier clip that could hold both well...more likely it would hold one well and the other poorly, or both poorly. Anyway, is there

Does anyone have suggestion how to modify radial insertion machine to 3.5mm pitch? I have to insert 3.5mm pitch Ecap but the industry standard radial machine could mount only 2.5 or 5 mm pitch. changing PCB or parts is not an option as it is not appr

Insertion isn't enough. You also need cut and clinch for axial, radial, and dip components.

We have here a Radial inserter with 80 stations sequencer. We want to reduce that to 20 stations, so remove 3 banks on the sequencer. How can we change the configuration ? Is there dip swichts or something in the excutive to change ?

Of course, if the number of required component codes ( = feeders) is not very great, you might want to look into odd-form assembly machines. With them you can insert a much greater range of components than just simple radial components and you can ge
