Bulk component cassette * JPUSA 800-874-1905 jpusa.com/bulk.htm * Practical Components 714-252-0010 practicalcomponents.com/drawing_pages/bulk-cassette.htm Alternately, contact component suppliers that supply in bulk and ask them for their source.

Hello, I am a high volume user of bulk component feeding. We are going to be changing some of our feeding interfaces and I need to find suppliers of SMD cassettes. I need someone who supplies just the plastic cassette, not components in a cassette

We are currently NOT using bulk, even though we looked into as a means of reducing machine time and component cost. Unfortunately, since bulk cassettes did NOT take the industry by storm as it was predicted years ago, we were stuck with long lead ti

OK Jon, now let me speak hypothetically. We are in agreeance that bulk feeding can save money through increased machine up time. If this cost savings alone could pay for the bulk feeders (it is just a matter of time before it would) and the minimum

Bulk parts cassettes... another idea that must have looked good at the time. Too bad the manufacturing trend went from low mix / high volume to high mix / low volume. I guess the feeders have to be too complex to feed the part properly to the machine

If it takes an extra step, then it is costing my company money to pay that person to do that task. Besides, I prefer to keep the stock personnel busy counting reels from shipments and preparing kits for the production floor. Kind of sounds like buy

Bulk cassettes are not readily available because they're purchased by component suppliers, provided to their customers full of fly shit and when empty they're returned to the component supplier for refill. Try Topline or your bulk component supplier

Dear colleagues, can anyone tell me who manufactures or where can I source the (IEC 286-6 and EIAJ 7201) standard bulk cassettes for SMD components? I have googled a lot without success... Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I sent Topline a question about this. However, I am looking for a original supplier of the cassettes - there must be a supplier who makes the cassettes for the SMD companies?
