SS-SMDC SMD Material Counter by Southern Machinery: Model Selection Guide
Eight SS-SMDC models can count a tray in 15 to 20 seconds. Here is how to choose the right one.
Which SS-SMDC model do you need?
All eight models read the guiding holes photoelectrically, counting components on the reel without unrolling it.
- 30 W flat tier (801E, 802E, 801, 802): 18-second count cycle
- 80 W flat tier (801SJ, 802SJ): tape-end auto stop, 20-second cycle
- 80 W upright tier (881IH, 882IH): 15 seconds, 8 speed settings
- Leakage test: only on 802E, 802, 802SJ, and 882IH
Verified model-by-model specifications

| Parameter | 801E / 802E / 801 / 802 | 801SJ / 802SJ | 881IH / 882IH |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motor power | 30 W | 80 W | 80 W |
| Cycle per tray | 18 s | 20 s | 15 s |
| Speed settings | 3 | 3 | 8 |
| Leakage test | 802E, 802 | 802SJ | 882IH |
| Auto stop at tape end | No | Yes | Yes |
| Appearance | Flat | Flat | Upright |
All models share quantity setting, zero counting error, English LCD, and computer link.
Where the counter fits in the material flow
- Goods-in: count incoming reels before storage.
- Smart racks: interlock with storage and inventory systems.
- Kitting: verify counts before changeover.
- Returns: confirm partial reels before restocking.
Key selection parameters for buyers
- Components: resistors, beads, capacitors, diodes, IC chips
- Tape pitch: 2, 4, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 44, and 56 mm
- Leakage test and tape-end auto stop options
- Bench space: flat or upright (L750 x W340 x H190 mm, 10 kg)
- Supply: 110 V or 220 V compatible
ROI perspective
Hand counting consumes operator hours and creates inventory errors that can stop a line. The SS-SMDC delivers stepless speed regulation and zero counting error with a short learning curve. Southern Machinery models ROI case by case.

FAQ
How fast is the SS-SMDC?
It averages 18 seconds per tray; IH models take 15 seconds.
Does it need X-ray to count?
No. Photoelectric sensing reads the guiding holes, with zero counting error.
Can it count a partially used reel?
Yes, forward and reverse counting with a tape anti-slip design.
Does it connect to our inventory system?
Yes, via computer link with optional barcode scanner and printing.
