S300AS Desktop PCB Router for PCB Depaneling by Southern Machinery
Jul 23, 2026

The S300AS Desktop PCB Router by Southern Machinery is designed for EMS, ODM, automotive electronics, medical electronics and industrial control manufacturers that need cleaner PCB depaneling with less manual variability. Based on the source document, it combines a dual-table alternating cycle, 800W high-speed milling spindle, programmable tool paths and a rigid aluminum die-cast frame to support small to medium-batch production. Example throughput is stated as about 120 boards per hour, depending on panel design, routing path, fixture and final technical confirmation.

SM-JWF-01 SMT THT Jumper Wire Feeder by Southern Machinery
Jul 23, 2026

The SM-JWF-01 SMT THT Jumper Wire Feeder by Southern Machinery is designed for factories that still rely on operators to cut, form and prepare jumper wires before PCB assembly. It automates jumper wire cutting, forming and feeding for use with SMT mounter platforms, helping EMS, ODM, automotive electronics, medical electronics and industrial control manufacturers reduce repetitive manual handling, stabilize wire preparation quality and integrate jumper wire feeding into a more efficient PCB assembly workflow. Final cycle time, component fit and line ROI should always be confirmed against the wire material, jumper span, mold configuration and target mounter setup.

THT Axial Tape Feeder Integration Guide by Southern Machinery
Jul 23, 2026

For EMS factories still inserting axial resistors, diodes, or capacitors by hand, a THT axial tape feeder can be a practical bridge toward automated through-hole assembly. This guide explains where the feeder fits, what engineering teams should verify before selection, and how Southern Machinery can integrate the feeder with THT insertion, wave soldering, board handling, inspection, training, and spare parts support. Exact speed, format compatibility, and interface details should be confirmed against the final component samples and machine configuration.

THT Auto Insertion Line for Axial, Radial and Odd-Form Components by Southern Machinery
Jul 22, 2026

For EMS, ODM, automotive electronics, medical electronics and industrial control factories, manual through-hole insertion can become a costly bottleneck. Southern Machinery designs cost-effective THT auto insertion lines that combine axial insertion, radial insertion, odd-form insertion, feeders, loaders, unloaders and downstream soldering preparation into one practical automation solution. The goal is simple: reduce manual handling, stabilize insertion quality, and make the THT section easier to integrate with a complete PCB assembly line.
