UNIVERSAL SYSTEM ONE-SIDED

Gullwing Trim & Form for Low Volume/High Mix

A family of ONE-SIDED universal SMT lead form and trim systems for processing two- and four- sided Flat packs and Quad packs into a gull wing configuration.
Two models are available that process one side of a package per press stroke for high mix, low-volume production and R&D requirements.
Please note the standard tools have set limits for body size and dimensions.
Fancort can modify these as needed to meet your applications and components dimensions.
Please, also, note all universal tools bend at 90º and will give you a range of 80-90º of spring back. If you want different angles or Omega bends, dedicated tools are a better choice.
Higher quality forming or increased production requirements can be met with our two-sided Flex System that process two sides of a package per press stroke, offered with optional mechanical loading and unloading
