This Custom Axial Tape Feeder for THT Insertion is a specialized feeding solution engineered specifically for through-hole placement machines handling non-standard axial strip packages. It excels at processing resistors, diodes, and jumpers with a bandwidth capacity far exceeding original equipment manufacturer (OEM) limits.
Designed based on actual customer component samples, this feeder ensures perfect compatibility. Every critical parameter—including bandwidth (supporting up to 92mm), lead cut length, U-clamp angle, and feed cycle time—is precisely calibrated to your production line’s unique requirements rather than generic standards.
Technical Specifications (Customizable)

| Display | Compact LCD status screen | Cycle count, fault alarm, feed rate readout |
Why Choose Custom Over OEM?
Standard OEM axial feeders have fixed bandwidths and locked component sizes. They often fail when production lines require feeding wide strip components (e.g., 92mm) or when clamping angles exceed preset dies. These failures typically stem from mismatches between the strip and the sprocket drive or forming die. Our Custom Axial Tape Feeder solves this by targeting the component itself, offering the flexibility needed for specialized or legacy parts where standard solutions fall short.
