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

Some things to consider 1. can one operator keep up with manual operations and not slow the line down? If yes, great. If no you will need a way to allow more than one operator access to the next board coming down the line to not create a bottleneck.

There is standard pick and place equipment such as the Assembl�on (formerly Philips EMT) ACM Micro and AQ-1 that can easily handle your snap-fit through-hole BNC connectors, in addition to other surface mount components and through-hole odd form part

Kevin, There are a number of custom integrated systems that perform automated insertion of "odd" components. These system use either a robot or cantilevered X,Y,Z Cartesian motion systems. Our systems have accepted standard and custom component feede

Hi Long, Cmiller is right, check out the vendors and ask for lots of info, they'll flood you with it. You also mite ask to see their equipment working in a facility near you. Also check out IPC-A-610 and J-STD-001. Get to know the different termi

Hi, there is also a German company making odd-shaped component insertion equipment, actually very very suitable for LED placement and soldering in the same process cycle. LED's are held in position until soldering is complete, straight and in the s

What kind of equipment is used to insert LEDs into PCB? LEDs are in tape form. Thank you for your help!

Yes, we have an old Universal axial and they still offer independent machines for axial, radial and DIP components, but I do not have the floor space for that. Some offer "odd form" insertion machines (Juki, Hanwha, Cenncorp)which is the direction I

The odd form assemblers are extremely slow compared to the Axial & Radial UIC machines. Also there is a big cost for feeders. Key question is what is the max axial & Max radial feeder count on your biggest job and that will quickly tell you how man

Assembleon AX201 is one of the most accurate odd-form placer. It can place anything, including leaded transformers, press-fit connectors, and of course odd form SMT components. You can even use a gripper nozzle for components without a flat surface t
