Used ASM X4is placement machine

The ASM X4iS placement machine is a high-end, high-speed, multi-module surface mount technology (SMT) system from the ASMPT SIPLACE series. Designed for high-precision, highly flexible, and intelligent manufacturing, it serves as a primary mass-production platform for the high-end electronics sector.

Core Performance

Equipped with linear motor drives and a digital vision system, the X4iS achieves a placement accuracy of ±35 μm @ 3σ (per IPC standards). It delivers a maximum placement rate of 96,000 components per hour (CPH) per module, ensuring exceptional throughput without compromising precision. The system handles a wide range of components—from ultra-small 01005 parts to large, irregularly shaped components measuring up to 50×250 mm—making it well-suited for high-mix production environments.

Architecture and Flexibility

Featuring a modular architecture, the X4iS supports dual-track transport and multi-module configurations, allowing for the flexible setup of high-capacity SMT production lines. Its feeder system is compatible with various interfaces, facilitating rapid product changeovers and minimizing component waste (low pick-and-place loss). It is particularly well-suited for sectors with stringent requirements for consistency and stability, such as automotive electronics, industrial controls, and telecommunications equipment.

Intelligence and Positioning

The X4iS integrates ASM’s intelligent feeding and process control functions, enabling real-time monitoring of placement quality and optimization of production line balance. As a core component of the SIPLACE X series, it works in tandem with other models in the lineup to provide comprehensive production solutions—ranging from high-speed placement to the handling of complex, irregular components—establishing itself as a key piece of equipment for high-end SMT mass production.
