Used ASM SIPLACE D1i SMT machine with verified head, conveyor and feeder configuration, inspection support and global delivery.
The ASM SIPLACE D1i is a flexible single-gantry SMT placement machine designed to handle both standard SMD components and larger or more complex devices. Depending on the installed configuration, the machine can operate with a 12-nozzle Collect&Place head, a 6-nozzle Collect&Place head, a SIPLACE Pick&Place head, or a combination of two placement heads.
Originally introduced under the Siemens SIPLACE product family, the D1i is also widely identified in the market as the Siemens SIPLACE D1i, ASM D1i or ASMPT SIPLACE D1i. It remains a practical option for manufacturers that already operate SIPLACE equipment and require an additional machine, replacement unit or capacity expansion without investing in a current-generation platform.

One of the main characteristics of the D1i platform is its configurable placement-head arrangement. The installed head combination should be checked carefully because it determines the machine's component range, placement rate and suitability for a specific production program.
The C&P12 head is intended for efficient placement of standard chip components. It collects multiple components during one cycle, optically centers them while moving toward the PCB and places them at the required position and angle.
The C&P6 head provides a balance between placement speed and component flexibility. It may be selected for component mixes that cannot be handled efficiently with the 12-nozzle head alone.
The Pick&Place head is designed for accurate handling of fine-pitch, special-shape, larger or more complex components. It supports optical component centering, controlled rotation and monitored placement force.

A machine supplied with only one placement head may differ from a full D1i two-head configuration. The exact installed head type, nozzle changer, camera and related hardware should therefore be listed clearly in the quotation.
| Placement Head | IPC Rate | SIPLACE Benchmark | Theoretical Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| C&P12 | 13,000 CPH | 15,000 CPH | 20,000 CPH |
| C&P6 | 8,400 CPH | 9,800 CPH | 11,500 CPH |
| Pick&Place | 2,600 CPH | 2,800 CPH | 3,500 CPH |
Actual production output is affected by the PCB program, component distribution, feeder arrangement, conveyor mode, vision inspection requirements, board transfer time and machine condition. The theoretical rate should not be treated as the guaranteed output of a used machine.
The single-conveyor configuration processes one PCB at a time and supports a broad board-size range. It is suitable when the production program requires larger boards or a conventional single-lane SMT line arrangement.
The flexible dual conveyor can operate in synchronous or asynchronous mode. In synchronous mode, two boards may be processed as a common panel. In asynchronous mode, one board can enter or leave while another board is being processed, helping reduce non-productive board-transfer time.
Before selecting a machine, confirm the required PCB width, length, thickness, underside clearance, transport direction, conveyor height and SMEMA connection.
The SIPLACE D1i can work with several component-feeding methods, including tape feeders, stick magazines, trays, bulk cases and special feeder modules. Its maximum feeder capacity is commonly expressed as up to 90 tracks when calculated with 3 × 8 mm S feeder modules.
Wider feeders require more feeder-table space, so the actual number of installed feeders decreases when 12/16 mm, 24/32 mm, 44 mm or wider modules are used. Feeder quantity must therefore be calculated from the customer's BOM and tape-width distribution rather than from the maximum 8 mm track count alone.
Matching ASM SIPLACE feeders, feeder carts, nozzles and replacement modules can be supplied according to the machine configuration and production requirements.
The SIPLACE D1i platform was prepared for 01005 component placement, but a machine should not be described as 01005-ready based only on its model name. The correct camera, nozzles, sleeves, feeder modules, software version and process conditions must be present.
When 01005 capability is required, confirm the installed camera type, nozzle specification, station software, SIPLACE programming software and feeder condition before shipment. A placement test using representative components is recommended.
The D1i is particularly suitable for production environments where component flexibility is more important than the maximum output of a modern high-speed placement platform. Typical applications may include:
Industrial control boards
Automotive electronic assemblies
Communication and networking products
Power supply and inverter control boards
Medical and instrumentation electronics
Consumer electronic assemblies
Mixed-component and high-mix PCB production
Existing SIPLACE production-line capacity expansion
Final machine suitability should be evaluated from the PCB size, BOM, component package range, target cycle time, required feeder quantity and available factory utilities.
A used D1i should be evaluated according to its actual installed configuration and operating condition rather than only by model number or external appearance. An agreed inspection and factory acceptance test can include the following items:
Machine nameplate, serial number and manufacturing information
Installed placement-head model and head quantity
Nozzle changer and available nozzle inventory
Gantry, linear drive and axis movement condition
Placement-head vacuum, force and component sensors
Camera recognition and illumination functions
PCB conveyor movement, clamping and width adjustment
Single or flexible dual-conveyor configuration
Feeder-table, trolley and feeder communication condition
Computer, operating system and SIPLACE software status
Safety covers, interlocks and emergency-stop functions
Dry-cycle operation and available placement-test results
Power supply, compressed-air connection and factory compatibility
Photos, videos, configuration lists and agreed test records can be prepared before shipment. Available SMT spare parts and SMT machine repair and calibration support can also be discussed for long-term operation.
| Supply Voltage | Three-phase 200, 208, 230, 380, 400 or 415 VAC, depending on machine version |
|---|---|
| Frequency | 50/60 Hz |
| Nominal Apparent Power | Approximately 2–3 kVA |
| Compressed-Air Supply Range | 5.5 to 10 bar |

The D1i was introduced under the Siemens SIPLACE product family. The SIPLACE business later became part of ASM and ASMPT, so the machine may be described as Siemens SIPLACE D1i, ASM SIPLACE D1i or ASMPT D1i.
With a 12-nozzle Collect&Place head, the original specification lists an IPC rate of 13,000 CPH, a SIPLACE benchmark rate of 15,000 CPH and a theoretical rate of up to 20,000 CPH.
Supported head types include the 12-nozzle Collect&Place head, 6-nozzle Collect&Place head and SIPLACE Pick&Place head. The machine may have one or two placement heads.
The D1i can be configured with two placement heads, while the D1iS designation is generally used for a single-head configuration. The actual installed hardware must still be verified from the individual machine.
The platform supports preparation for 01005 placement, but the correct 01005 package, nozzles, camera, feeder modules, software and process setup are required.
The maximum board size can reach 610 × 508 mm with the applicable long-board and wide-board conveyor options. Standard board capacity varies by conveyor configuration.
The maximum feeding capacity is commonly listed as 90 tracks based on 3 × 8 mm S feeder modules. The actual feeder count is lower when wider feeder modules are installed.
Yes. The machine can be configured with a flexible dual conveyor supporting synchronous and asynchronous operating modes, or with a single conveyor.
Confirm the head configuration, conveyor type, software, cameras, nozzle changers, feeder-table condition, axis movement, sensors, voltage, accessories and available placement-test results.
Availability depends on the required feeder generation, width, part number and machine configuration. Provide photos or part numbers when requesting feeders, nozzles, motors, cameras, boards or placement-head components.
If you are not sure whether this product matches your machine, send us the model, label photo or old part picture for checking.
