What Problems Can an SMT Automatic Splicing Machine Solve? Many Manufacturers Don't Realize the Need Until Production Expands
Jul 10 , 2026
As electronic products continue to evolve at a rapid pace, **high-mix, low-volume (HMLV) production** has become the norm for an increasing number of SMT manufacturers. At the same time, shorter product lifecycles and faster order turnaround have led to more frequent **reel changes** on SMT production lines. For many manufacturers, **manual tape splicing** is sufficient when production volumes are...

How to Reduce SMT Downtime? Your Reel Change Process Could Be the Missing Piece
Jul 19 , 2026
As the electronics industry continues to move toward high-mix, low-volume (HMLV) production, SMT manufacturers are handling an increasing variety of products and more frequent production changeovers. As a result, reel changes have become a routine part of daily operations, making the tape splicing process an increasingly important factor in maintaining continuous production on the SMT production l...
