In 1983, Contact Systems delivered the first CS-400 Cut & Clinch Through-Hole Insertion Component Locator. Since then, thousands of CS-400 inserters have been installed in production lines throughout the world and are relied upon daily.

CS-400 is a semi-automatic insertion machine for radial, axial, and multi-leaded through-hole electronic components for PCB assembly.

The CS-400 insertion machine has proven to be an extremely durable and reliable machine.

 

The latest model is CS-400E.

Four CS-400E models with the various X- and Y-dimentions are available:

• CS-400E
• CS-400EJY
• CS-400EJX
• CS-400EXY
