At the SMT/Hybrid/Packaging trade show in Nuremberg (June 8-10, 2010) equipment maker Siemens Electronics Assembly Systems (SEAS) will present a new, software-based setup concept for SIPLACE placement machines with intelligent X-feeders.
The SIPLACE Split Table Mode splits the component tables at the SMT line virtually and assigns their feeder positions to two consecutive setups. That way, one area can be used to manufacture a previously optimized product while the other area is used to prepare for the next product without having to stop the line.
According to the company, this new "floating” setup concept is especially useful for electronics manufacturers with great product diversity and relatively few component overlaps. They can now execute their product changeovers with no downtime, reduce their investment in component tables and insert rush orders into their production schedule more quickly and easily.
