Re: clipping through-hole leads


Why cut the leads after soldering ?
Most common I know is that the components are bend and cut before
soldering.
The leads are not bend to keep them in place for wave soldering like
some said. They are bend to keep in them in place for the insertion
machine.

If you want to make high quality then don't stress the components with
a inserter. Bend and cut them with a good machine place the components
by hand.

But as always there are more solution possible depending on the
situation.
