Applications

  • Boards with high radial component counts: power, driver and control boards gain the most from consistent machine placement.
  • Mixed SMT and through-hole lines: the inserter runs between a pick and place machine and the soldering section, so surface-mount and radial work travel through one line instead of two.
  • Wide-pitch components: parts that previously had to be hand-placed after the machine finished are handled in the same pass, which takes a manual station off the line.
  • Component changeovers: different radial part types run on the same head, so a board revision that swaps component types does not call for a different inserter.
  • Line additions: plants adding radial capacity can put this inserter into an existing line without rebuilding board handling or retraining a shift.

Changeover & Daily Operation

  1. Load the radial component sequence exactly as the board program lists it, so the machine does not pause for a part sitting in the wrong input.
  2. Run a first-article board and check lead seating and clinch form from the underside before releasing the batch.
  3. Match the board support to the panel being run, so panels stay flat while leads are pushed through the holes.
  4. Balance the run with the upstream placement equipment; the inserter should take each board as it arrives rather than waiting between panels.
  5. Record the settings used for each board type, so a repeat order can be set up from the record instead of from scratch.



Scale & Supply Capability

ZJ-SMT supplies Panasonic SMT and PCB assembly equipment and spare parts to manufacturers worldwide. Our range covers pick-and-place machines, axial and radial insertion equipment, solder paste inspection systems, and feeder spare parts, with both new and used options available. We support bulk orders, and machine condition and availability are confirmed with you before ordering. Whether you are expanding a line, replacing a worn feeder part, or sourcing equipment for a new project, send us your model numbers and our team will come back with a suitable solution and quotation.

FAQ

Q1. Will this inserter fit into a line that already runs a pick and place machine?

Yes. It is built to sit in a PCB assembly line alongside a pick and place machine, and it works with the feeders, nozzles and valves around that equipment. Send us your line layout and panel sizes and we will confirm how the inserter fits your flow.

Q2. What is the difference between the two input configurations?

The smaller configuration holds one bank of radial components. The larger configuration can run two banks together or switch between them, so a second set of parts stays loaded and the line changes over without stopping. For lines built around pick and place machine manufacturers' equipment, the higher input count often suits a wider board mix.

Q3. Do we need to change hardware when the component pitch changes?

No. Pitch is set through the machine program, so a board that mixes standard and wide-pitch parts does not need a tooling swap between runs. The wider pitch range is an option, so tell us the pitch mix on your boards when you enquire and we will match the configuration to it.

Q4. What day-to-day maintenance does the machine need?

The parts that touch components take the wear. Clean the insertion head and clinch tooling regularly, because lead debris is the usual reason a component does not seat fully. Check the component inputs for tape or reel damage, and keep the air supply dry, since the pneumatic side drives the insertion stroke.

Q5. Which spare parts should we keep on hand?

Most plants hold a spare set of the tooling that touches components — insertion head parts and clinch tooling — so a worn item does not stop the line. The component input mechanisms are the other common wear point on a high-volume machine. Tell us your configuration and we can advise which items are worth stocking.

Q6. What should we prepare before the machine is installed?

Three things matter most: a stable supply at your site voltage, a dry filtered air line, and floor space with enough clearance around the frame for component loading and maintenance access. The main body arrives as one heavy unit, so plan the rigging route and floor loading before the delivery date. If you send us your site details in advance, we can confirm the installation requirements with you.
