SMT & THT Automation Insights

Remove flux residue and ionic contamination after wave soldering with the SQC250A PCB cleaning machine. Reliable, cost-effective PCBA production.

Manual insertion of odd-form THT components remains a persistent bottleneck in high-mix PCB assembly lines — driving up labor costs, introducing quality inconsistencies, and limiting throughput. Southern Machinery's S-7000 Odd Form Insertion Machine directly addresses this challenge with servo-driven, vision-guided automation capable of handling connectors, transformers, relays, capacitors, and other non-standard components at production speed. Designed for EMS providers, automotive electronics, power supply, and industrial control manufacturers, the S-7000 integrates seamlessly with upstream radial/axial inserters and downstream wave soldering systems via SMEMA interface. With PC-based control, vision programming, and the most flexible insertion head in its class, it bridges the gap between high-speed automated insertion and the complexity of odd-form parts — eliminating repetitive manual labor while improving First Pass Yield and assembly consistency.
