Samsung Pneumatic Feeder 08mm

Product Introduction – Samsung 8mm Pneumatic Feeder

The Samsung 8mm Pneumatic Feeder is a standard tape feeder designed for use with Samsung SMT pick-and-place machines, particularly early models such as the CP40, CP45, CP60. It operates using compressed air to advance component tapes and is typically used for passive components in 8mm embossed or paper tape format.

Key Features

Pneumatic drive system: Uses air pressure to index the tape, eliminating mechanical motor parts.
Compatible with 8mm tape width, ideal for feeding resistors, capacitors, and small ICs.
Works with Samsung CP series (CP40/CP45/CP60) and other pneumatic-compatible models.
Designed for high-speed feeding with consistent alignment.
Easy to load and unload tape reels for quick changeover.

Typical Specifications

Tape Width: 8mm (single-lane)
Drive Type: Pneumatic (air cylinder mechanism)
Feeding Speed: High-speed indexing for mass production
Mounting: Standard feeder bank slots for CP series
Component Types: 0402, 0603, 0805, small LEDs and ICs

Applications

Used in high-volume SMT production lines to feed common chip components.
Ideal for early-generation Samsung machines that do not support electric feeders.
Common in industries like consumer electronics, automotive, LED, and telecom.

Optional Accessories

Cover tape pusher mechanism
Tape guide rail and spring assemblies
Air tube connectors and feeder bank adapters
Calibration and test jigs for CP feeder setups

Related Accessories – Samsung 8mm Pneumatic Feeder

1. Mechanical Components

Tape Guide Rail
Guides the component tape into the feeder path.
Part ID: Often feeder-specific – check CP8 series compatibility

Cover Tape Separator / Pusher
Lifts and separates the cover tape so components are exposed for pick-up.

Feeder Base Plate / Housing Frame
Structural support that holds the tape mechanism and air cylinder.

Feeder Locking Pin / Clamp Assembly
Secures the feeder into the feeder bank rail on the SMT machine.

Tape Clamp Spring / Tension Spring
Maintains proper tape tension and prevents tape drift.

2. Pneumatic Components

Air Cylinder
Drives the tape advancement mechanism.
Usually a small double-acting or single-acting cylinder, feeder-model specific

Solenoid Valve (for some bank types)
Controls the on/off air supply to individual feeders (external to the feeder unit).

Air Tubing Connector / Fitting
Standard push-to-connect fittings for compressed air input.

Exhaust Muffler
Reduces noise from air release and protects cylinder.

3. Testing & Maintenance Tools

Feeder Calibration Jig (for CP series)
Used for off-machine testing of tape advancement and stroke alignment.

Spring Clamp Tool
Assists with safe replacement of internal feeder springs.

Air Pressure Regulator
Controls incoming air pressure to match feeder specs (typically 0.4–0.6 MPa).

4. Miscellaneous Accessories

Feeder Storage Rack
ESD-safe feeder cart or storage shelf for organizing feeders during idle time.

Reel Holder Adapter
For mounting tape reels securely on the feeder.

Tape Waste Rewinder (optional, if supported)
Mechanism to roll up and collect waste cover tape during feeding.

FAQ Guide – Samsung 8mm Pneumatic Feeder

1. What is the Samsung 8mm Pneumatic Feeder used for?

It is designed to feed 8mm carrier tape containing surface-mount components (e.g. 0402, 0603, 0805 resistors, capacitors, small ICs) into Samsung CP-series SMT machines, using compressed air to advance the tape.

2. Which SMT machines is it compatible with?

This feeder is compatible with the following models:

Samsung CP40, CP45, CP60
Some variants of CP45FV and CP40L

These machines require pneumatic-type feeders, not electric.

3. How does it work?

The feeder uses a compressed air-driven cylinder to index the tape forward. The tape advances one pitch per placement cycle, exposing the next component for pick-up by the placement head.

4. What is the required air pressure for operation?

Typical working pressure:
0.4 to 0.6 MPa (4–6 bar)
Too low = feeding failure
Too high = component misalignment or tape damage

5. What types of tape does it support?

Tape width: 8mm
Tape types: Embossed plastic or paper tape
Component types: Chip resistors, capacitors, LEDs, small semiconductors

6. What are common issues and troubleshooting tips?

7. What parts are commonly replaced?

Air cylinder – J70541004A
Return spring – J90651007A
Tape guide rail – J66021001A
Cover tape pusher – J66011003A
Locking knob/pin – J70613008A
Tube connectors – J70631015A

8. How can I test the feeder?

Use a manual feeder test box (e.g. J13014002A) or calibration jig (J13013001A) to simulate feeding without running the full SMT machine.

9. Does it support cover tape rewinding?

Some setups allow for optional cover tape rewind reels (e.g. J13014004A), but many early pneumatic feeders do not support automated rewind.

10. How often should maintenance be performed?

Daily: Blow out dust, check tape path
Weekly: Check for air leaks, inspect springs and moving parts
Monthly: Lubricate air cylinder, replace worn parts
Quarterly: Full inspection and rebuild if necessary
