In SMT production lines, the stability and efficiency of tape splicing directly impact the smoothness of overall line operation and the first-pass yield. Traditional manual splicing relies on operator skill, easily introducing risks such as wrong material or missed splices. This challenge becomes even more severe when dealing with ultra-miniature components like 01005. Youngpool Technology's independently developed SMT automatic splicing machine is dedicated to solving this core pain point, with its key advantage lying in achieving integrated, fully automatic splicing and electrical verification with high precision and high reliability.

Youngpool Technology’s automatic splicing machine supports automatic splicing for tape widths ranging from 8mm to 24mm, is compatible with various materials such as paper and plastic, and comprehensively covers mainstream industry specifications. Through a precise mechanical structure and servo control, combined with intelligent visual positioning, it ensures each physical splice is consistently accurate, reducing deviation at the source. More crucially, we have innovatively deeply integrated an LCR electrical testing system into the splicing process. This system utilizes an independently moving precision measuring mechanism, featuring an advanced design where "one set of probes is compatible with all materials," allowing the measurement range to cover ultra-miniature components at the 01005 level. While the physical splicing is completed, the online verification of key electrical parameters such as inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) is performed simultaneously.

This integrated "Splice and Inspect" closed-loop forms a reliable, upfront quality barrier for the SMT line. The LCR measurement accuracy reaches ±0.05%, effectively screening out materials with non-conforming parameters or poor performance, preventing them from flowing into subsequent placement processes. In actual production, combined with intelligent empty carrier detection and automatic cutting functions, the equipment can achieve a splicing pass rate of up to 98%. This significantly reduces risks related to material throwing, downtime, or quality caused by tape issues, helping lines dramatically shorten the interruption time for reel changes, even achieving no-stop reel changes, thereby significantly improving Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).

The value of this technological approach lies in merging the previously separate workstations of "material continuity" and "component inspection" into one. Through automation and intelligent means, it transforms a potential weak link reliant on manual labor into a stable, controllable, and data-generating critical node. This represents an important direction towards integration and high reliability in the material handling segment of modern electronics manufacturing.
