• Setup Preparation & Product Changeover
• Production Planning
• NPI
• Data Management
• Material Management
•  Production

Floating Setup

SIPLACE Random Setup simplifies the setup preparation effort in the pre-setup area as well as the setup changeover on the SIPLACE Line.

The basis of the solution is the intelligence of the SIPLACE Feeder generation combined with smart software.

Important aspects of Feeder intelligence for Random Setup are:

• Unique Feeder ID
• X-Feeder LED

Random Setup Workflow

• Component-Feeder Kitting in pre-setup area or on the line
• Place Feeders on any track in table or line wise mode (Random Setup)
• Spare track feeders can be added on the line

Changeover Guidance for Random Setup

• Changeover guidance through X-Feeder LED Control on the line:
• LED “Green” for components used in active setup and/or next setup
• LED “Orange flashing” for components on wrong location for next setup
• LED “Off” for components not used
• Check completeness for next setup based on actual setup on the line

Combination of Random Setup with different Setup Strategies

• Changeover Table Concept or Feeder Change on the line
• Floating Changeover with Split-Table Mode

SIPLACE Random Setup is beneficial  with:

• Feeder Change or Table Change strategy
• Low volume/ high mix production with many changeovers
• Frequent NPI runs or urgent orders
• Flexibility and fast changeover is more important than highest placement speed

Reduced investment for additional Changeover Tables when using Feeder Change instead of Table Change strategy

• No additional Changeover Tables required

LED Pairing

 

BROCHURE

SIPLACE LED Pairing represents a huge advance in the quality and
efficiency of the LED placement process. The software administers
LED brightness classes and automatically assigns matching
resistors. In combination with SIPLACE Setup Center and setup
verification, it is the perfect tool for preventing yield-reducing program
changeovers, unintended brightness class changes or faulty LED-resistor
combinations – even on dual-sided boards.

NPI

To make NPI processes simpler, faster and more robust, they must be standardized and efficiently supported with hardware, software and services. This includes the ability to close frequently occurring data and information gaps in the product description quickly, easily and reliably.
While this may sound mundane, it can significantly reduce the time and cost of new product introductions to a fraction of previous cost levels. With their effective offline preparation and setup features, today’s SIPLACE solutions support the NPI process consistently and thoroughly.
Electronics manufacturers are thus able to produce even the first prototype or the first new product quickly and error-free with no workarounds or extra costs for items such as adhesive tapes, etc. – and do all of this while keeping any interference with their regular production runs to a minimum.

SiplacePro

With SIPLACE Pro you can do offline:

• Verify  with Virtual Build and discover Errors
• Debug Program, Analyze geometrical conditions of components, used nozzles and the PCB for potential collision between components in the surrounding of a placement position or between components and nozzles, and create precedence rules
• Line Balancing, Feeder Setup Optimization and Placement Sequence Calculation
• Release to Production

benefits

• Gaining information by in-dept analysis of optimization results to manually tweak setups and therefore improving placement rates
• Use exported data with other programs (e.g. AOI)
• One single software for programming, optimizing and controlling a line
• Easy-to-use graphic user interface available in multiple languages
• Minimized line downtime and high utilization of SMT equipment

Vision Teaching Station

With SIPLACE you can generate new component data or analyze and correct
existing package data offline, but with the same camera models you use in your production.
Afterwards you export the new or modified vision data to your SIPLACE Pro database and thus to your production line.
With this special offline tool, SIPLACE speeds up the creation and/or analysis of vision data considerably for more productivity and quality on the line.

Multi-Gripper-Kit

BROCHURE

Application area of grippers

Status quo

• Each gripper (base & jaws) is build for a special application
• Long delivery time from supplier for new designs (up to 8 weeks)

Advantages of the new SIPLACE Multi-Gripper-Kit

• Enables customer to mount a special gripper on his own in less than 2 minutes
• Especially interesting for special parts in the area of sample-/ prototype construction and small batches
• Considerable cost savings for special grippers
