Olamef TP/TO-CF – Cutting & Forming Machine for Transistor Leads is a high-precision automatic solution designed for cutting and forming transistor leads directly from tube packaging, making it ideal for electronics manufacturing and PCB assembly environments. Engineered to process common transistor packages such as TO-220, TO-218 and TO-126, this transistor lead forming machine automates the preparation of components for efficient board insertion or surface mounting. All machine movements are PLC-controlled, ensuring consistent accuracy and repeatable production results, while dedicated dies allow different lead forms such as straight cut, 90° bending or surface-mount configurations. Two wire holders secure the component leads before the cutting and forming operations begin, preventing stress or damage to the transistor during processing.
