In this age of SiP technology, SMT and semiconductor manufacturing are increasingly converging, which requires a new generation of hybrid placement platforms that can handle both sensitive dies and classic SMDs. To accomplish this, they must feature precisely adjustable placement forces, extreme accuracy, a high-resolution internal quality assurance system, and a level of performance that can keep up with modern high-speed placement machines even for die processing. All of this is being offered by the new SIPLACE TX micron from ASMPT, which was developed especially for advanced packaging applications. To learn more about the future of hybrid placement technology, read a translation of an article published by elektroniknet.de. 

Deploying your employees effectively is one of the most important building blocks in ASMPT’s Intelligent Factory concept. In this first installment of our Intelligent Factory series, our experts will show you how you can use intelligent software to help your operators and technicians maximise the productivity, yield and quality of your SMT lines. The webinar begins on April 9, 2024, at 9:00 AM CEST (3:00 PM SGT) and the attendance is free.

Speakers:

•   Stéphane Le Roux, Regional Marketing & Sales Support EMEA
•   Haithem Jeridi, Product Manager Software Solutions
•   Olimpiu-Petru Datcu, Senior Manager Software Engineering-Cloud
•   Phil Read, Director Service Engineering

Relieve your staff and optimise the workflows on your SMT lines with WORKS Operations. The intelligent application bundles all production requests and requirements, prioritises them, and assigns them to employees with sufficient lead time proactively and based on their individual skills. The various assignments on the lines are displayed as tasks either on the mobile device of an available operator or on a desktop at a workstation (if the task can be performed remotely). The bottom line: tasks get executed more calmly, efficiently and across multiple lines in the Intelligent Factory.

In a mid-sized electronics factory with five SIPLACE SX placement machines running 24/5, up to 250 work hours per year are spent on removing, emptying and replacing the tape waste containers from the feeder tables while the line is standing still.
Did you know that you can automate this with our Automated Waste Disposal System? It is easily installed underneath the placement machines and combines the tape waste from the individual machines in a collection container. The removal and disposal of the waste is also handled automatically with AMRs. The system relieves operators of routine work and cuts down on line standstills.

ASMPT’s commitment to sustainability is bearing fruit. In just one year, the market leader improved its climate change score by a whole five levels to an impressive grade of “B” in 2023. The certification by the renowned non-profit CDP organisation is in line with ASMPT's Net Zero 2035 strategy and its desired environmental leadership role. The B-score represents a high degree of transparency and significant progress in reducing the company’s environmental impact. The next goal is a score of “A” on the road to a sustainable future for customers, employees, shareholders, partners, and society in general.
