Sequence and insert tape-packed radial components — capacitors, transistors, LEDs, fuses, key switches — at 12,000 CPH with 1000 ppm reliability. Built for high-mix EMS factories that need to retire manual radial insertion lines without buying a Yamaha / UIC at OEM list price.
Hand-loading capacitors, LEDs, transistors and fuses one-by-one is slow, error-prone, and impossible to scale when your customer triples the order. The S3010A turns radial insertion into a programmable, repeatable, lights-out process — without paying for an OEM badge.
12,000 CPH steady throughput on capacitors, transistors, LEDs, key switches, fuses and connectors — replacing 8–10 manual insertion stations.
Component value and polarity verification before insertion via vision system — wrong parts are rejected, not soldered.
Multiple clinch options with programmable height — protect SM components co-located on the board.
Single, dual, triple and quad-span tooling — 2.5 / 5.0 / 7.5 / 10.0 mm spans inserted at the same time. 3.5 mm and customised 12.5 / 15 mm available.
Camera-vision teaching makes a new PCB program in ~5 minutes from a Gerber-format Excel file via USB.
Compatible with UIC insertion heads, cut/clinch base, CTA, carrier clips and feeders. Shenzhen-built, 1-day spare-parts dispatch, free installation & training.
Every detail of the S3010A is sourced from a hardened THT platform — Fuji servo drives, 1.5 kW head motor, precision X–Y table, vision verification, and cell-friendly auto board handling.
Servo-driven insertion head + 400 W X–Y table delivers 12,000 components per hour at 1000 ppm reliability.
1.5 kW head-driven motor and 7-axis servo system — the same drive class used on legacy OEM radial inserters.
2.5 / 5.0 / 7.5 / 10.0 mm lead spans inserted in the same program. 3.5 mm available; 12.5 / 15 mm customised.
Up to 22 mm tall components with no derate — capacitors, transistors, LEDs, fuses, key switches, connectors.
Programmable clinch height + adjustable clinch length 1.5–2.2 mm and clinch angle 10°–35° — protects neighbouring SMT parts.
Component value & polarity verified by vision before insertion. Vision teaching also auto-aligns coordinates from Gerber.
Optional in-line PCB loader / unloader supports up to 400 × 400 mm boards with a 50-PCB magazine rack — see S3010A Automation Solution.
Insertion head, cut/clinch base, CTA, carrier clips and feeders are interchangeable with UIC platforms.
Industrial PC, Chinese / English Windows interface, 5-minute new-PCB programming, optional remote diagnostic access.
Outcomes EMS factories typically discuss when retiring a manual radial line and switching to S3010A. Final case must be validated against your actual board mix and shift pattern.
Real, sustained throughput — datasheet rating, not a peak burst.
One miss-insertion in a million on a stable, vision-verified workflow.
One operator can attend the S3010A; auto loader option pushes toward a lights-out cell.
Typical payback range when replacing 8–10 manual radial insertion stations.*
