An
integral part of CHAD's automation solutions, this patented
high-speed single pin lead clinch
system provides the most flexible clinching
available. Capable of clinching any number of leads in any direction
(0 - 360°), it is completely programmable. With this system,
no tool changes are necessary and there are no limits to the number
of components that can be
clinched
on a
board. CHAD clinching systems can clinch lead diameters up to
.062 and can be raised or lowered anywhere
in its path to avoid underboard components.
For
applications where flexibility is not critical, a dedicated clinch
design can be integrated.
The tooling is custom designed for each board and offers a reduction
in cycle time.
