The NBHZ 5-axis desktop soldering robot automates the through-hole joints that most SMT lines still solder by hand. Southern Machinery's bench-top machine repeats a taught path at ±0.02 mm, holds the heater within ±2 °C
The S-9300 3D SPI from Southern Machinery delivers inline solder paste inspection for SMT lines with 12 µm resolution, 0.28 s per FOV and ±3 µm repeat accuracy.
Discover how the S-100 Series HMLV bridge conveyor streamlines PCB flow between SMT assembly stages—key selection criteria, integration tips, and ROI for high-mix low-volume production.
Discover how Southern Machinery's tht auto insertion solutions deliver Helps evaluate how to reduce manual insertion work and stabilize repeatability for THT or odd-form parts.. 237+ global clients. Shenzhen manufacturer since 2011. Contact for configuration advice.
An ESD tray with grids keeps every through-hole part number in its own pocket instead of a shared bin. The configuration on the assembly drawing measures 457 x 289 mm inside and 45 mm deep, and three long plus four short fluted dividers make 20 cells at about 91 x 72 mm. Because the dividers are separate parts, one tray covers several BOMs, cuts kitting time and removes the mixed-value defects that pass in-circuit test and fail at final assembly. Surface resistivity of 10 to the 4th to 10 to the 8th ohm to IEC 61340-5-1 is stated for the range, and the six open points are published rather than averaged away.
Install a PCB conveyor lighting stand on an SMT inspection conveyor in four steps — bracket, lamp holder, and 110 V wiring — and give operators even light.
