Space-Saving SMT Folding Loader for High-Density Factories


01 PCB Loader


The upgraded I.C.T SMT Folding Loader is the smartest choice when floor space is tight but you still need high-volume automatic PCB feeding. This Automatic PCB Folding Loader uses a clever folding mechanism to store tall magazines vertically, then smoothly lowers and feeds boards one-by-one with perfect alignment and zero damage. Available in standard or full CE versions, the SMT Folding Loader packs reinforced hardware, advanced electrical systems, and expandable Industry 4.0 controls into an incredibly small footprint. It integrates instantly with any brand and supports full smart-factory upgrades while delivering 24/7 reliability.


Detailed Product Features


Strong and Durable Hardware

Feature 1-Hardware Part

The unique folding structure of the SMT Folding Loader uses upgraded high-grade materials and follows strict ISO and CE standards. The reinforced base and ergonomic layout give years of rock-solid stability while cutting floor space by more than half—perfect for packed factories.


Advanced Electrical System

Feature 2-Electrical Part

Premium sensors, bright tower lights, and high-frequency buttons give the SMT Folding Loader instant board detection and crystal-clear status feedback. Operators stay in complete control even during the fastest production runs, eliminating errors and keeping output at maximum speed.


Smart Industry 4.0 Control

Feature 3-Control Part

The expandable control platform supports IPC-CFX, Hermes, and SEMI SMT-ELS protocols (optional). Connecting the Automatic PCB Folding Loader to your MES or adding new features takes just minutes, instantly turning a cramped space into a true smart-factory solution.


Reliable Vacuum Suction Technology

Feature 4-Other Detail

Precision lifting and folding mechanisms handle tall magazines quietly and smoothly. The SMT Folding Loader guarantees perfect board positioning every cycle—protecting delicate PCBs from scratches or misalignment right from the start of the line.


Flexible Communication Options

Feature-5 Option

Optional modules let the SMT Folding Loader talk directly to printers, placement machines, and AOI systems. The folding design removes the need for long conveyors and extra loaders—maximum capacity in minimum space.

Customer Success Story


I.C.T overseas engineers flew to Finland to install and commission a fully automatic LED Panel production line for a leading European lighting manufacturer. The turnkey solution included our SMT Folding Loader, 1.5 m fully automatic printer, SM482PLUS placement machine, L8 reflow oven, vertical cooling buffer, linking conveyors, board splitter, and solder paste mixer. Our team finished installation, debugging, and hands-on operator training in just five days. On the first official production day the line already hit target speed with zero defects. The customer especially praised the rock-solid performance of the SMT Folding Loader and the perfect machine-to-machine communication. They passed the strict European audit on the first try and immediately placed a repeat order for another line.



Professional Training & Support


I.C.T offers true end-to-end support: remote pre-checks, on-site commissioning, free operator and technician training, 24/7 global hotline, stocked spare-parts warehouses worldwide, and scheduled preventive maintenance—so your SMT Folding Loader runs at peak performance year after year with virtually zero unplanned downtime.
