Special applications
Side cutters for use in medidical device manufacturing
The 632NCF miniature side cutter is ideally
suitable for soft material such as silicone
tubes in medical device applications, precision
connector seals or miniature rubber seals.
The miniature cutter is also the ideal tool for
cutting soft synthetic parts, e.g. in the manu-
facture of hearing aids.
The cutting edges of the 632NCF side cutter
are precision-ground to an extremely high
level. This enables the cutter to deliver a
razor-like full-flush cut.
Tip cutters to remove fine pitch SMD ICs
A simple method to remove SMD ICs is to
cut each of the individual leads to remove
the device and then reflow the joint with a
soldering iron and remove the component
lead from the board.
The solder left on the board can then be
removed with a desoldering tool or desolder
braid and a new component fitted.
The 670EP and 670EPF have fine pointed
tapered and relieved heads that are able to
fit between individual leads and cut them
without causing damage to the printed
circuit.
