KST-DC01
Automated Die-Cut and Reel Machine
The KST-DC01 is a high-performance system designed for post-stamping processing of electronic components and precision metal parts. The machine efficiently handles die-cut parts supplied on micro-tab or carrier-bridge strips, separates individual parts, and automatically picks and inserts each part into carrier tape, forming standardized reels ready for high-speed SMT mounting, automated assembly, and production lines.

Core Workflow:
- Material Infeed: Continuously receives metal strips from the stamping press, where parts are held by micro-tabs or carrier bridges.
- Precision Alignment: Accurately locates each component using advanced vision systems or high-precision mechanical indexing.
- Singulation (Cutting & Separation): Precisely punches or shears individual parts from the carrier strip.
- Inspection & Sorting (Optional): Conducts dimensional, visual, or electrical testing to automatically reject non-conforming parts.
- Oriented Pick-and-Place: Transfers qualified parts with high repeatability and correct orientation to the packaging station.
- Taping & Reeling: Put parts into carrier tape pockets, applies heat or pressure-sealed cover tape, and winds the finished tape into reels.
Technical Features:
- High-Precision Vision Alignment: Integrated vision positioning systems achieve an industry-leading placement accuracy of ±0.02 mm.
- Rapid Changeover: Supports diverse product geometries through modular tooling sets and programmable software profiles.
- High Throughput: Processes between 7,000–15,000 UPH (Units Per Hour), maintaining stability even at peak speeds.
- Intelligent Control System: PLC-based architecture with an intuitive HMI touchscreen for parameter management, production analytics, and real-time diagnostics.
- Modular Architecture: Customizable modules available for AOI (Automated Optical Inspection), ionized dust removal, and ESD (Anti-static) protection.
