Setup merely involves entering the component type and presetting the quantity. After positioning the spindle posts to vertical, the reels are inserted as the taped components are threaded through the sprocket holes. Mega XP and its rechargeable battery-powered sensor will count as fast as the operator can turn the hand crank — up to 10,000 cph. It is internet-priced at $1,595.
Other features of this innovative product, one of five different counters offered by Manncorp, include a built-in accessories compartment containing hand crank, battery charger and shoulder strap, plus a RS-232 link to an optional adhesive label printer that records vital inventory data.
