I have done this in a past life. In my mind this is a step backwards. If all of your parts are placed by hand it will work.You will need to cut at the top of the solder to keep the leads form bending If any parts are auto inserted you will need to c

Looking to purchase a DIP lead forming tool. The tool that has the 2 rollers that let you place the DIP part on the rail and run it between 2 rollers (ball-bearing?). I found a place that once sold them. They were called an RS Pro IC Insertion Tool

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

We use a chunkee trimmer in prep. Cut bend and form all thru hole parts before first assembly.

.... an 18-20 week lead-time is why we're doing this. Ideally I'd prefer to form them into gull-wing (except we'd have to do it by hand and that'd be difficult to control), but it's a hell of a lot quicker and more consistent just to run them throug

I'm assuming these are two leaded axial components. GPD Global makes fluid dispensing and component prep equipment. Component leads can be formed (or bent) in order to provide some resistance in the hole during insertion. This should prevent the comp

We would benchmark our times with the most experienced operator and them boost the time by 1/3. Example: If it takes Mary 3sec to insert the component, 3 secs to clinch and cut the leads (it is not advised to cut the leads after soldering), and 8 sec

We used to use those, back in the bad old times. basically, it's a router with a blade on it that is used to trim the leads of PTH components that are mounted on boards. Nasty process. Difficult to control. Messy, firing cut leads all over the plac
