With the development of technology, mechanization has become increasingly sophisticated, and automatic insertion machines are no exception, featuring user-friendly operation. Below is a detailed overview of the working principle and applications of automatic insertion machines.
Working Principle of Automatic Insertion Machines: Automatic insertion machines adopt mechatronics to mount compatible components onto PCBA boards. These components cover almost all through-hole devices, including capacitors, inductors, and connectors. Process engineers assign specific insertion positions to each workstation based on workload and operational rationality. Each machine is responsible for mounting only a few types of components and repeats the same operations, minimizing the chance of errors. After all required components are mounted onto the PCBA, a dedicated workstation transfers the PCBA onto the conveyor chain of a wave soldering machine. Meanwhile, solder weights are placed on components prone to lifting due to heat exposure, preventing poor soldering.
Wave Soldering Machine (LT-DW300/DW350 Series): This is a specialized soldering device equipped with a molten solder pot and temperature-controlled heating tubes for preheating. It is primarily used for soldering through-hole components with exposed pins and surface-mounted components on the reverse side of PCBA boards. When a PCBA enters the machine, its reverse side is first sprayed with flux, and then it passes through the solder pot. The solder in the pot forms a wave-like flow, hence the name "wave soldering machine". After soldering, the PCBA is conveyed out along the chain to the next production process.
Wide Applications of Vertical Insertion Machines: 1. LED lighting, LED display screens, LED control systems, LED vehicle lights, LED luminous characters. 2. Electric light sources, energy-saving lamps. 3. Commercial lighting. 4. Outdoor lighting, street lamps, searchlights. 5. Manufacturing of circuit boards for lighting accessories, ballasts, etc.
Applications of Horizontal Insertion Machines: Car audio systems, air conditioners, televisions, microwave ovens, power supplies, chargers, and network peripheral products such as network switches. LITUO, in collaboration with XZG, offers component insertion services at a low processing fee of just ¥0.008 per component—lower than manual insertion costs. We provide trial processing services first; if you find machine insertion superior to manual insertion, you can then propose a plan to purchase LITUO automatic insertion machines. This is your optimal solution to save labor costs, improve production capacity, and enhance product quality!
