Count On Tools, Inc. (COT), a leading provider of precision components and SMT spare parts, has introduced a new custom solution designed to support accurate placement of challenging connector components. Part No. 2025-5644 is a custom Yamaha I-Pulse M20 base engineered with an angled 4.66 mm x 10.0 mm vacuum nozzle, developed specifically for reliable placement of Degson terminals (DG103-5.0-XXP-1Y-00R(H)).

The custom nozzle configuration addresses common placement challenges associated with terminal-style components, where geometry and orientation can impact pick-and-place accuracy. By incorporating a precisely angled vacuum design, the solution improves component handling and alignment, helping ensure consistent placement performance on Yamaha I-Pulse platforms.

Count On Tools works closely with customers to develop application-specific nozzle and tooling solutions tailored to unique component requirements. This latest development reflects the company’s ongoing focus on solving real-world SMT challenges, particularly for non-standard or difficult-to-handle parts.

With more than 35 years of experience, Count On Tools supplies both standard and custom nozzle solutions for a wide range of SMT equipment. The company regularly supports applications involving LEDs, connectors, microelectronics, and other specialized components requiring customized handling approaches.
