Black Material Cover for Yamaha SS8MM SMT Tape Feeder
1. What is the KHJ-MC141-03 used for?
The KHJ-MC141-03 is a top cover component for Yamaha SS8MM feeders. It holds the carrier tape in place, ensuring smooth feeding and stable alignment as components are picked and placed during SMT production.
2. What’s the difference between KHJ-MC141-03 and KHJ-MC141-02?
KHJ-MC141-03 is black (often coated or anodized for ESD control and better tape visibility).
KHJ-MC141-02 is typically silver or gold (standard stainless steel finish).
Functionally, both perform the same role, and the choice often depends on operator preference or feeder batch specification.
3. Which feeders is it compatible with?
It is designed for Yamaha SS8MM series feeders, commonly used with SMT machines such as:
YSM10 / YSM20 / YSM20R
YS12 / YS12F / YS24
YG200 / YG12, and other YS or YG models
4. What parts work directly with it?
KHJ-MC140-00 – Pressure spring
KHJ-MC136-00 – Tape pressure arm
KHJ-MC134-00SS8MM / KHJ-MC135-00 – Internal drive gears
