1.1 Description
The placement systems from the SIPLACE X-series are particularly suitable for applications that
demand a high level of flexibility, utmost precision and high placement rate. Two placement meth-
ods are used:
– the Collect & Place method for high-speed placement of standard components
– the Pick & Place method for fast placement of special fine-pitch and super-fine pitch compo-
nents
The SIPLACE principle 1
The moving head picks up the components from their stationary feeder, and places them on the
PCB, which is also stationary. This proven SIPLACE principle has many advantages:
– Short down times for refilling or splicing
– Even the smallest components (e.g. 0201) are picked up reliably
– The components cannot slip on the PCB
– Minimal traversing paths
High flexibility, cost-effectiveness and set-up reliability combine to ensure that the SIPLACE series
placement machines provide high productivity. Minimum down times increase utilization and thus
help to increase productivity.
1.1.1 SIPLACE X4
The X4 placement machine is equipped with gantries, two gantries for each placement area (PA).
All the gantry axes are driven by linear motors. The gantry axes can be positioned quickly and
accurately in the X and Y directions. The gantry arms are lightweight constructions made from a
highly rigid carbon fiber composite material. There is a placement head on each gantry. The fol-
lowing placement head configurations are possible:
*) Placement area 1
**) Placement area 2
The performance data can be found in section 3.2 on page 96.
