hanwha feeder storage rack

A Hanwha feeder storage rack (commonly known as feeder carts, trolleys, or docking carts) is mobile, anti-static solutions used to store and pre-kit Hanwha SMT feeders offline, away from the production machine. This practice is a key lean manufacturing strategy to reduce machine downtime during product changeovers.
Hanwha Feeder Cart Specifications
These carts are typically constructed from durable, lightweight, and anti-static materials and are designed for high-volume SMT production environments.
Feature Specifications
Material Stainless steel and aluminum alloy construction
Capacity Typically holds 80 feeders total (40 per layer across two layers). Other capacities (50 to 112 feeders) are also available.
Mobility Equipped with four anti-static castors (wheels), two with brakes for stability.
Dimensions Common dimensions are around 930mm x 600mm x 1170mm (36.62" x 23.62" x 46.02").
Compatibility Specific models are available for SM/SME series and CP series feeders; the holder slots are different for each type.
Operational Benefits
Reduced Downtime: Allows operators to perform job changeover preparations offline, so the entire set of feeders can be swapped out quickly.
Improved Organization: Numbered slots on the cart correspond to the machine's feeder positions, minimizing errors during installation.
Component Management: Provides a secure place to store unused feeders, preventing damage and minimizing failures from improper handling.
Smart Factory Integration: Can interlock with Hanwha's T-SMART Rack software solution to track component inventory and location information in real-time, further reducing material preparation time.
