Streamline Your Workflow with SMT & THT Automation

The SRT7001 Reel Terminal Feeder by Southern Machinery helps EMS, ODM, automotive electronics, medical electronics and industrial control factories convert reel terminals into a stable, machine-ready supply for SMT/THT hybrid assembly. Built around reel-to-reel feeding, custom brackets, I/O mapping and nozzle or gripper options, it supports fewer manual touches, more consistent terminal presentation and easier integration into automated PCB assembly lines. Final speed, compatibility and tooling should be confirmed against the terminal reel, host machine and line configuration.

The S3010A Radial Insertion Machine by Southern Machinery helps EMS, ODM, automotive electronics, medical electronics, and industrial control manufacturers automate radial through-hole component insertion. With source-listed values such as 12,000 CPH real insertion rate, support for 2.5 mm to 10.0 mm insertion spans, and 450 mm x 450 mm PCB size, it can reduce repetitive manual insertion work, improve process repeatability, and make THT assembly easier to integrate with board handling, soldering, inspection, training, spare parts, and full-line automation support.

When component packaging, pickup geometry, or insertion requirements do not fit a standard feeder, custom feeder and nozzle engineering can make the difference between a manual workaround and a repeatable PCB assembly process. Southern Machinery combines feeder options for axial, radial, tube, bulk and label-fed materials with custom nozzle and gripper concepts for special SMT and THT applications. This guide helps EMS and manufacturing teams define interfaces, component conditions, line integration needs and validation points before commissioning a cost-effective automation solution.

The S-100B desktop selective soldering machine from Southern Machinery brings fixture-free, programmable THT soldering to high-mix, low-volume EMS lines, labs and prototyping benches. A 3-axis XYZ robot with ±0.05 mm pos

JUKI serial nozzles are the interchangeable picking tools that keep placement heads reliable on KE and RS series mounters. Southern Machinery supplies the 501–505 flat chip and MELF 102/510/511 ranges, plus the 005–905 body series, for machines from 750/760 to KE2010–2060, FX1 and RS-1. The range targets a 99.99% component adsorption rate, ESD-safe materials and abrasion-resistant tips with a reference service life above 24 months, with custom samples for odd-form components and connectors. A five-step engineering flow — machine and part review, 24-hour technical consultation, configuration, delivery and fit check, and after-sales support — cuts spares confusion, missed picks and rework in high-mix EMS, automotive, medical and industrial electronics production.
