Radial Component Trimmers & Formers

General Information

APS follows a modular approach to component processing. APS modularity begins with a hand-cranked base unit that can easily be upgraded to a sophisticated high-speed automated processor. Interfacing with over a dozen component options, a machine can be configured to any requirement. The inexpensive base unit can be upgraded with available options as a company's needs grow. This flexibility also permits ease of integration of all options without requiring factory retrofitting. Perhaps the most convincing demonstration of APS true modularity is in the availability of base units to process either axial or radial components.

RTV Radial - Trimming: Vibratory Feed Loose Radial Component Trimmer

Function:

There is not an inline radial component trimmer made that processes a wider range of components
than the RTV. It not only routinely accepts various types of caps - TO-92s, LEDs, SIPs etc. - but in its
manual mode will easily trim components that are too top heavy for other vibratory processors. The
reason for the RTVs versatility is an exclusive vibratory mechanism which operates in a horizontal plane.
This provides far greater stability so parts are not toppled

Features:

Linear vibratory feed track
Fully adjustable cut length with built-in scale
Dial adjustable cut length scale
Processing speeds up to 3,000 cph
Automatically separates finished components from scrap
