Precision tools are important to the electronic manufacturing industry as they are custom-designed and made with components that are specifically used for working on technological devices. Tweezers allow for the careful and precise handling of components during the design and repair of electronics devices. Cutters are designed to precisely cut higher gauge leads, including medical device hard wire, while pliers can be used for straightening wires and making fine-tuned precision adjustments. Electric torque screwdrivers are an ideal way to speed up production, reduce operator error and fatigue while providing exact repeatable torque to assembly applications. SMT Supplies carries these, and a wide variety of tools used on the electronics manufacturing floor.
SMT Supplies technical staff are here to help you choose the correct tool for your applications.
