Combined PCB:
two boards become one

Because their relative share of non-productive conveyor time is higher, PCBs with low placement contents tend to drag down your line performance. Until now…

With the SIPLACE X4i’s Combined PCB function, you can now use software to instantly combine two PCBs into one and process them as a single board – with no modifications of the conveyor system or the placement program. All it takes is a few mouse clicks. And splitting them up again is just as quick and easy. Unlike with the more familiar family setups, the placement programs remain completely separate, which keeps the number of active placement programs and the related maintenance effort low.

Your benefit: Even PCBs with fewer than a thousand components can be manufactured flexibly and efficiently without increasing the setup or programming effort.

Combined PCB is ideal for top-and-bottom products or for high-mix production environments with widely fluctuating placement contents. Visit a SIPLACE Application Center and see for yourself how the SIPLACE X4i uses Combined PCB to merge maximum performance with maximum flexibility.
