Field notes from Jason Wu — 30+ years of hands-on THT auto insertion experience. Articles on custom-designed SMT & THT machines, odd-form feeding, wave soldering, and spare parts for future-proof, cost-effective EMS production lines.
A rice cooker control board case study: the S7020 4-head odd-form inserter automates terminal, connector and relay-pin insertion with clinching before wave soldering.
Our SAGV30C return trolley costs about two months of one operator's wage and removes the walking from wave soldering pallet transport. Here is when an AGV earns its keep — and when it does not.
An automated wire-stripping station that cuts and strips ribbon cables and multi-conductor wire with computer-controlled accuracy, feeding THT insertion without manual prep.
Custom SMT nozzles and grippers that let an existing mounter place off-center, irregular odd-form parts your standard tooling cannot hold reliably.
Lights-out THT is not about emptying the floor overnight. It is about counting every place a person touches a board, then retiring those touches one station at a time.
The SMT side can run unattended. Then boards reach the through-hole benches, and the shift ends when the operators do.
