Preforming die lock-in with body seated on the board Supercut/TS1 - Iteco 180900

Where overall height matters or the assembly has to survive vibration, the component should lie flat on the board instead of standing on a bead. This Supercut/TS1 die therefore leaves out the spacer and only produces the lock-in clinch below the board that holds the part until soldering.

Operating benefits

• The component body lies on the board without an air gap, which gives the lowest overall height of the TS1 forms
• The lock-in clinch below the board secures the part against falling out when turning and transporting the assembly
• The flat seat increases mechanical stability under vibration and shock
• Difference to number 180600: there an additional stand-off bead is embossed
• Cutting and clinching in one pedal stroke at 2000 pieces per hour

Typical applications

• Flat assemblies with limited mounting height inside the housing
• Devices exposed to vibration or shock, such as vehicle and industrial electronics
• Components that are turned over and transported after placement
• Series production without a cleaning requirement underneath the component

Compatibility and scope of delivery

This die assembly is intended exclusively for the pneumatic cutting and forming machine Supercut/TS1 (Iteco 7915.171). The machine is supplied without a die, so the die has to be ordered separately. Changing to a different lead form takes only a few movements, which lets one machine cover several component shapes. The same form is available as number 160900 for the smaller Supercut/RS4 (Iteco 7915.166) - the two number ranges are not interchangeable. Scope of delivery: one complete die assembly. Made in Italy.
