03101503 is not, strictly speaking, a complete "Nozzle Exchange" unit; rather, it is a 40xx/60xx-series "Nozzle Magazine" used within the nozzle exchange system of ASM SIPLACE pick-and-place machines—often referred to in official manuals as "Magazine 40xx."
Core Specifications and Compatibility
This magazine is designed to store 40xx/60xx-series nozzles, with each unit providing 20 nozzle slots. It is compatible with various placement head platforms: it is used with the SpeedStar (C&P20 P2) head on SIPLACE TX1/TX2 machines; on E-series machines, it serves as part of the CP14 nozzle exchange system (which accommodates four such magazines, totaling 80 nozzle slots); and it is also designated as a 40xx magazine component for the X-series "S" models.
Functional Role
As a consumable or sub-component of the nozzle exchange system, the magazine does not perform the exchange action itself; instead, it provides standardized storage positions for nozzles. While the nozzle exchange system as a whole utilizes pneumatic and electronic components to execute the retrieval and placement of nozzles, the magazine ensures that each nozzle is precisely positioned and can be reliably picked up by the placement head. When procuring this item, please pay attention to the full suffix (e.g., -01) and verify its compatibility with the specific placement head (such as the CP14 or C&P20 P2).
