1 Introduction
This manual provides technical information and describes how to configure and operate the
SIPLACE® BulkFeeder X.
With the SIPLACE BulkFeeder X a new feeding system is offered for all small components that are
used in high quantities in a high-volume production environment. Instead of feeding the
components out of a tape and reel packaging, the components are filled into a cartridge and
transported and separated onto a glass plate from which they are picked up contactlessly.
The following main advantages apply for the SIPLACE BulkFeeder X:
● The adjustment to different component sizes (0402, 0201 and 01005) is done via software only.
● The vibration system cannot only transport the components in any direction, it can even flip
components.
● Filling the cartridge is easier than splicing or setting up a new reel and the feeder is able to hold
much larger component quantities than a tape feeder ever can.
● Less downtime of the machine or line.
● Component packaging costs are supposed to be lower when using the bulk feeder system
instead of tape and reel.
● Waste materials will be significantly reduced down to almost no waste.

High temperatures around the camera
CAUTION
Hot surface warning
The camera may be hot. Be careful when touching the BulkFeeder X.
1.2.2 Feeder Handling
Base Unit
Carry the Base Unit in the handle (1). ►
NOTICE
Only move the Base Unit with installed Cartridge.
As the weight is nearly 6.5 kg, it may be necessary to carry the Base Unit with both
hands.
Pick the Base Unit in the handle with one hand and at the front side (close to the EDIF and ►
front centering pin) with the other hand.
Do not touch the gap on the side panels where the camera is installed. The camera might get ►
out of place.
Treat the Base Unit carefully. ►
The Base Unit is equipped with a small foot on the side of the 3rd track. Thus, it can be put down
standing on the table. However, due to the small support base it is safer to lay it down on the side
on a smooth surface.
Do NOT throw, drop or overbalance the Base Unit.
