Which THT parts an odd-form insertion machine can place, how packaging sets the feeder, and the published numbers to confirm before you order.

Radial tape feeder pitch decides whether taped electrolytics, Y-caps and terminals feed at the pick position. SRF1001 runs 12.7 mm or 15 mm, not both.

SMD reel taping machine guide: repack tray, tube and bulk parts into 8-200 mm carrier tape at up to 400 m/h, with empty-pocket detection and dual-stage sealing.

Stencil cleaner filtration: 10/5/1 µm solvent recirculation, a 40 L working fill and a 1,500-cycle filter change counter on the S-1688 stencil cleaner.

Mixed-technology radial insertion for high-mix PCB assembly: S-3010A programming in minutes, 2.5-10 mm spans, 22 mm parts, one-operator inline cell.

Depanel medical device PCBs without micro-cracks: S380A router specs, the V-score versus router rule, dust extraction and the separation payback math.
