SIPLACE Station Software 70x / Feature Description Ausgabe 05/2014 Edition

3.5 Tray Feeding

The station software supports the following types of tray feeding on the X2, X3 und X4 placement

machines:

Manual tray feeding:

– Arbitrary Carrier X

– Carrier X

Automatic tray feeding:

– MTC2 on locations 2 and 4.

3.6 New Conveyor Mode "Quad Lane"

Provided that the machine has been configured accordingly, the station software supports the new

"Quad Lane" (QC) conveyor mode additionally to single (SC) and dual (DC) conveyor modes.

The basic principle of "Quad Lane" is that four boards are placed simultaneously on four conveyor

lanes. This increases the overall line performance, especially for boards with a low number of

placement positions. In SIPLACE Pro two boards respectively are defined as a logical pair (2L/2R

and 1L/1R, from left machine side to right machine side). This pair is downloaded in one single job

from SIPLACE Pro to the station. The logically coupled lanes xL and xR are referred to as sub-

lanes. The board width may be different in the 2L/2R and 1L/1R lanes, but all boards must have the

same thickness. The conveyor width is automatically adjusted in the job specification (if automatic

width adjustment is preset in SIPLACE Pro).

Also single boards may be placed in the sub-lanes. In this case a board must be defined in the job

specification for the sub-lane next to the fixed conveyor edge. Otherwise, the width of this sub-lane

is unknown.

Boards can be aborted separately. However, two boards on one conveyor lane are always

conveyed together. An aborted board is conveyed to the output conveyor together with the placed

board. The placed board will not be driven into the next machine until the aborted board has been

removed from the output conveyor.

The "Quad Lane" conveyor mode is supported on the X4 and X4i placement machines.

SIPLACE Station Software 70x / Feature Description Ausgabe 05/2014 Edition

The following changes have been made in the station software:

– Four conveyor lanes are displayed in the "Production" view on the GUI main view, when "Quad

Lane" conveyor mode is activated.

– New buttons are used on the GUI to operate the single sub-lanes:

3.7 Single Conveyor Mode on X4i

The single conveyor mode is also supported on the X4i placement machine as of this station

software version.

3.8 New Dip Module LDU_X for X-Tables

The new type of dip module, the linear dipping unit (LDU_X) is supported on X-type feeder tables.

The dip process is supported by all placement heads (C&P20A, CPP, Twin) on the X-series

placement machines. By the station software the LDU_X module is handled like any other X-

feeder. On the GUI of the station software the LDU_X module is displayed in the Feeder,

components and nozzles view.

CAUTION

In setup operation (activated through the unlocked key-operated switch), the operator is

able to start a squeegee cycle. However, if the LDU_X is used in the current product,

and the machine was not stopped and the LDU_X is operated parallel in setup mode,

this might damage the placement head!

3.9 Accuracy Check Tool (ACT)

With the Accuracy Check Tool (ACT) the placed components on a PCB can be measured for all

placement heads of the X series. For this a special glass PCB with many high-precisionally

measured fiducials and ACT component equipment are used. Depending on the selected

placement head, glass or ceramic components will be placed on the measuring board.

Subsequently, the placed components are measured with the PCB camera. The results can be

saved in a pdf file.

ACT is called in the Service – Accuracy Check view.

This function requires the "SIPLACE Service" activity level.

A detailed description can be found in the ACT user guide, item no. 00196351-xx, and in the online

help to the station software.

3.10 Fast Head Exchange

In order to increase the availability of the placement machines, repairs should be carried out as fast

as possible or be completely avoided by performing regular maintenance outside of the machine.

The station software automatically detects if a head exchange has been performed, and if

maintenance is planned for placement heads, the placement machines and in particular the nozzle

configuration can be optimally prepared for an exchange. During fast head exchange the

calibration is replaced by a "short calibration" and the operator is guided through a wizard for

updating the nozzle configuration. The wizard can be found in the Service view and should be

called before the actual exchange takes place. This function requires the "Machine Service" activity

level.

CAUTION

Placement head and camera always have to be exchanged together, otherwise a

complete calibration is required!
