3. Core principles and workflow

PCB positioning: Fix the PCB by mechanical clamping edge or support PIN.

Component picking: The nozzle picks up the component from the feeder, and the vacuum detection ensures successful picking.

Visual correction: The camera takes the component image, calculates the position deviation and dynamically compensates.

Precision placement: Z-axis pressure control to ensure that the component is placed without damage.

IV. Core advantages and features

1. High cost performance

Suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and R&D trial production, with high return on investment.

Low power design, low operating cost.

2. Flexible production

Quick line change (<5 minutes), suitable for small batch production of multiple varieties.

3. Stable and reliable

Modular mechanical structure, easy maintenance.

Smart feeder (Smart Feeder), reduce the throwing rate.

4. Easy operation

Graphical programming interface (SIPLACE Pro), support CAD import.

One-click calibration function, lower the operating threshold.

V. Typical application scenarios

Consumer electronics: smart watches, TWS headset motherboards.

Automotive electronics: headlight control module, sensor board.

Industrial control: PLC, relay board.

Medical equipment: portable detector PCB.

VI. Maintenance methods

1. Daily maintenance

Daily:

Clean the suction nozzle and camera lens.

Check whether the vacuum filter is clogged.

Weekly:

Lubricate the X/Y axis guide rails.

Calibrate the feeder step.

2. Periodic calibration

Monthly:

Perform visual system calibration (using standard calibration board).

Check the Z axis pressure of the placement head (reference manual for standard values).

3. Key spare parts list

Suction nozzle (for 0402/0603 only).

Vacuum generator.

Feeder gear.

VII. Common faults and maintenance ideas

1. Placement offset

Possible causes:

Suction nozzle wear → Replace the suction nozzle.

PCB positioning is not accurate → Adjust the clamping edge position.

Solution:

Perform Auto Calibration.

Check component library parameters (thickness, size).

2. High throw rate

Possible causes:

Insufficient vacuum → Check vacuum pump (standard > 60kPa).

Feeder step error → Recalibrate feeder.

Solution:

Clean the suction nozzle and feeder track.

Optimize visual recognition parameters (such as lighting intensity).

3. Machine alarm (servo error)

Possible causes:

Motor overload → Check guide rail lubrication.

Encoder failure → Restart or replace signal line.

Solution:

Check error code (such as E-stop, Axis Error).

Manually push X/Y axis to eliminate mechanical jam.

4. Feeder does not feed

Possible causes:

Material belt is stuck → Manually pull the material to eliminate.

Sensor is dirty → Clean photoelectric sensor.

Solution:

Check feeder gear alignment.

Replace damaged feeder accessories.

8. Conclusion

The ASM SIPLACE CP14 is an ideal choice for small and medium-volume electronics manufacturing due to its compact design, high flexibility and low maintenance cost. Its ease of use and stability can significantly improve production efficiency, while its modular structure reduces long-term use costs.

Recommendations:

Regular maintenance can extend the life of the equipment.
