UIC still manufacturers new thru-hole machines. Both axial and radial insertion models are available. They stopped making the multi-mod dip inserters in '91 or '92. And parts are easily acquired for any older models, there were a ton of machines out

Using Circuit Cam here. Not sure on the cost though. We use it to program our CS400E insertion machines as well. Makes nice work instruction drawings too.

Hello, As an Ex-Sanyo engineer I agree with the previous reply. Use EP1 sparingly. You may find that the nozzle sleeves are scored when you remove them. This is from lack of cleaning. You can only buy the sleeve and bearing from sanyo which is a was

Looking for information on lead trimming after wave solder. Does anyone do this through automated equipment? I know ideally parts would be cut to length before insertion and not trimmed after wave solder but sometimes that is cost prohibitive. When n

What is the advantage of dispensing dots over dispensing a line? I don't see any reason why dots wouldn't work. You might have to experiment a bit to dial in the right volume and spacing to get the desired end result, but it shouldn't be hard. Fisna

"Do you think these machines are less appropriate for smaller lot sizes and PCB's with just a few through hole parts?" That depends. It will still save time if your lot sizes are small, as opposed to hand placement. I would not recommend buying an

We're looking at buying some new hand insertion slide lines here, and I was curious if anyone had any suggestions. Of course cost and footprint size are important. What we have now are mostly home made and we're looking to improve. We do a medium
