RF-800 Infrared Receiver Lead Forming & Cutting Machine by Southern Machinery
Manual forming and cutting of infrared receiver leads is slow and inconsistent. The RF-800 automates the operation: bulk-fed components are formed and cut to a programmable length at high throughput.
What is this machine used for?
The RF-800 is a fully automatic, PLC-controlled machine that forms and cuts leads of bulk-fed infrared receivers before insertion, replacing manual work with repeatable results.
- Automatic vibration bulk feeding
- Integrated forming and cutting in one pass
- Adjustable forming height and programmable lead cutting length
- Fully automatic operation with PLC control

How the product fits into a complete PCB assembly line
- Prep: bulk infrared receivers feed and are formed/cut to spec
- Insertion: prepared parts feed odd-form or radial inserters
- Soldering: consistent lead geometry improves wave quality
- Inspection: fewer bent-lead defects means less rework
ROI perspective
Hand forming and cutting ties up operators and creates variation that drives insertion defects. The RF-800 removes manual prep steps and standardizes output, cutting labor and rework. ROI is modeled case-by-case.
