Solid Semecs and SIPLACE

SIPLACE SX redeﬁ nes

manufacturing borders

The Challenge

For almost 20 years, Solid Semecs

GmbH, a well-known electronics

manufacturer with headquarters in the

Netherlands, has operated a production

facility in V

rable, Slovakia.

During this period, the electronics

market in Eastern Europe underwent

massive changes as well as a steady

increase in customer expectations. This

was one of the reasons why Semecs

decided to run its production with

ﬂ exible and modular SIPLACE place-

ment machines to this day.

„A few years ago, customers were still

skeptical whether Eastern European

plants are able to produce not only in

high volumes, but also with high

quality and a great degree of comple-

xity. Our production must be equipped

to meet all customer demands without

difﬁ culty. Our challenge is to make

everything possible.“

The SIPLACE Solution

For the new Vrable production it

became apparent that Semecs would

invest in two SIPLACE SX machines.

The company had to be able to react

in top speed and highly ﬂ exible

customer demands. The SIPLACE SX

machines are equipped with SIPLACE

Multi-Star placement heads which are

able to place a large amount of different

components.

For added ﬂ exibility as well as easy

changeover, SIPLACE software comes

into play: SIPLACE Split Table Mode

makes possible ﬂ oating changeovers.

With SIPLACE Random Setup the

SIPLACE X-feeders can be set up at

any free slot on the component table.

Due to this state-of-the-art equipment,

Solid Semecs is able to guarantee

quality and efﬁ ciency – together with

SIPLACE redeﬁ nes the borders of

proliﬁ c and renowned electronics

production.

Solid Semecs

With service and sales ofﬁ

ces all over

Europe, production and technology sites

in Vrable, Slovakia, and Uden, Nether-

lands, and over 25 years of experience,

Solid Semecs GmbH focuses on

customers and projects from the areas

in automotive technology, medical

technology, photovoltaics and

industrial technology.

From receiving the order to the fully

packaged and ready-to-ship product,

the EMS provider takes on average

two weeks. When unforeseen chan-

ges or new customer requests arrive,

Semecs‘s production facilities are able

to respond in only a few hours, after a

short check of all available resources,

because absolute ﬂ exibility is one of the

company‘s overarching principles.

„Our orders are highly diverse, and our

customers come from many different

industries,“ explains the head of the

new Solid Semecs production in Vrable,

Ivan Kukucka.

“The SIPLACE SX machines are extremely reliable and thanks to

SIPLACE software and the MultiStar placement heads we can produce

many different products on just one line.” Ivan Kukucka, head of the

Solid Semecs Vrable production plant.

„With our new line we prove that many

assessments of the region in which we

produce are no longer valid,“ says Ivan

Kukucka, who is in charge of the Vrable

plant. „With state-of-the-art equipment

like our new SIPLACE SX placement

machines we are redeﬁ ning the limits of

the kind of electronics production that

operates at extremely high speed,

yet is ﬂ exible and churns out top

quality.“

SIPLACE SX – Reliability is king

Semecs recently opened new

branches in Scotland and Denmark,

but the company‘s production plant in

Slovakia has been in operation already

since 1996. And since the order volume

has seen steady increases and the

jobs are becoming ever more complex

and demanding, Solid Semecs decided

in 2011 to build an entirely new plant.

While the existing equipment was

moved from the old to the new

location in the summer of 2012, a newly

purchased line with two SIPLACE SX2

machines went into operation in the new

plant, handling many of the high-priority

orders.

The plant operated in three shifts, seven

days a week, to ensure 100% right-in-

time customer delivery and high quality

during the relocation.

„We are very pleased with our new

SIPLACE line. The SIPLACE SX machi-

nes are extremely reliable, and thanks

to the SIPLACE software and the Multi-

Star placement heads we were able to

run a wide range of products on a single

line,“ says Kukucka.

Maximum product diversity with

SIPLACE software

With its software package of SIPLACE

Random Setup and SIPLACE Split

Table Mode, Solid Semecs is able to

achieve a high level of product diversity

on the new SIPLACE SX machines

while keeping the setup effort to

a minimum.

With Random Setup, component

feeders can be installed anywhere there

is space, because they automatically re-

gister themselves on the machine along

with the component they contain.

And SIPLACE Split Table Mode, along

with the SIPLACE MultiStar heads on

the two machines, makes it possible

to switch from one product to the next

one without having to stop the line.

The heads can place most component

types with the need for a head change,

because they are able to seamlessly

switch between three different place-

ment modes: collect-and-place, pick-

and-place, and a special mixed mode.

Solid Semecs GmbH has grown at

double-digit rates in recent years, and

the forecasts for the future provide

cause for optimism as well.

„A few years ago, customers were still

sceptical whether Eastern European

plants are able to produce not only in

high volumes, but also with high quality

and a great degree of complexity. With

our new plant and with our new

SIPLACE equipment we can correct

these obsolete attitudes. For example,

we are now easily able to meet the very

strict quality guidelines of the

automotive industry on our entirely new

facility production ﬂ oor and with new

processes,“ assures Ivan Kukucka.

Solid Semecs also intends to expand its

capacities in the LED ﬁ eld in the future.

The company has already developed

drivers for new LED tubes – tubes

which are already used to illuminate the

entire new plant. And the next project

is in the works as well: Semecs wants

to add a second SMT line as soon as

possible.
