Nordec — Intelligent SMT Reel Storage

Our products

Smart racks for every reel size.

Four configurations cover the full SMT reel range — from compact 7" double-sided units, through 13/15" single- and double-sided racks, to mobile carts with a built-in touchscreen. All with pick-to-light guidance for fast, error-free changeovers.

Each rack is configured around your reel mix, line layout and integration stack — not pulled from a catalogue.

Why switch
