Modular StripFeeder System from Count On Tools
Gainesville, GA — Count On Tools Inc. has introduced the latest version of its StripFeeder System for loading tape-and-reel components onto com- pact modules for prototyping and high-mix/low-volume applications. The new modular Strip -
Feeder now has adjustable rails to accommodate a wide array of components in the same feeder. Unlike the fixed width version, the modular Strip Feeder can be adjusted by unlocking the rails and sliding them to the desired width. The innovative design holds the components securely in the tracks to prevent parts from being miss-picked, flipped in the pocket or lost. Customers also can remove rails to accom- modate larger components up to 120mm tape width, and larger in some cases. The new StripFeeder systems
provide a cost-effective way to load many components into the machine without having to purchase expen- sive feeders. The quick-to-assemble, easy-to-install modules are designed for quick loading of tape-and-reel components on existing SMT pick- and-place equipment. In addition, the trays enable fast changeover
between product runs without unloading from the machine. The StripFeeder trays are com-
patible with both paper and embossed tape simultaneously, and are suitable for low-volume/high-mix applications
