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

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

Since you got no reply, I will give it my best shot but we do not have a radial inserter because they are really expensive. I would start with Universal instruments. I think its http://www.uic.com. I think they still make them in New York. TDK and Pa

Do you already have machines or are you shopping? If you're shopping and looking at used machines from Universal, get AT LEAST a Radial Lead III and preferably a V or VIII. The Radial Lead II is well past it's prime, especially for someone that's jus

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

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

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
