The SIPLACE D3i is an SMT placement machine used for automated component assembly on printed circuit boards. Its practical placement capability is determined by the installed placement heads, component cameras, conveyor, feeder system, software and optional equipment rather than by the model name alone.
Available D3i machines may come from different production periods and may not share the same configuration. GEEKVALUE therefore confirms the machine identification, installed equipment, current photos, condition, included accessories, price and delivery time before issuing a quotation.

A used placement machine should be evaluated from its actual hardware configuration. Two machines listed as SIPLACE D3i may differ in the component sizes they can process, the PCB formats they can transport and the feeders or accessories included with the equipment.
| Configuration Item | What It Affects |
|---|---|
| Placement Heads | Component range, placement rate, accuracy and supported production applications |
| Component Cameras | Minimum package size, component recognition and applicable placement accuracy |
| Nozzles and Handling Tools | Compatible package shapes, pickup surfaces, component height and weight |
| PCB Conveyor | Board dimensions, track mode, transport direction and line integration |
| Feeder Tables and Feeders | Number and type of components that can be supplied to the machine |
| Software Version | Programming compatibility, supported options and communication with other line equipment |
SIPLACE D-series placement systems use multi-nozzle placement technology to collect components from the feeder area, inspect their position and place them at programmed locations on the PCB. The component spectrum available on a D3i depends on the exact head and vision equipment installed.
A configuration intended mainly for small and standard SMDs will have a different production profile from one prepared for larger IC packages or more demanding components. For this reason, a single component range or placement-speed figure should not be applied to every D3i machine without first checking its hardware.
| Production Requirement | Machine Information to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Small chip placement | Head type, high-resolution camera, compatible nozzles, feeder modules and software |
| Standard SMD and IC assembly | Installed multi-nozzle head, camera range and feeder arrangement |
| Larger IC packages | Maximum measurable component dimensions, height, weight and nozzle compatibility |
| Fine-pitch or specialized packages | Camera accuracy, component handling tools and supported software options |
The production output of a SIPLACE placement machine changes with its head configuration and the conditions used to measure performance. Theoretical output, manufacturer benchmark values and actual production throughput are not interchangeable.
Actual output also depends on the component mix, board layout, feeder positions, component rotations, PCB transport time, program optimization and equipment condition. GEEKVALUE will therefore confirm the installed heads and available machine documentation rather than using the SIPLACE D3 performance figures as D3i data.
SIPLACE D-series machines from this generation can be found with different PCB transport arrangements, including single-track and flexible dual-track systems. The conveyor installed on the available D3i determines the supported PCB dimensions and how the machine connects with upstream and downstream equipment.
| PCB Handling Item | Why It Requires Confirmation |
|---|---|
| Single or Dual Conveyor | Changes the usable board width and production mode |
| Long-Board or Wide-Board Options | Maximum board formats may require additional conveyor equipment |
| Fixed Rail Position | Must match the layout and transport direction of the existing line |
| Conveyor Height | Affects mechanical integration with adjacent SMT machines |
| Line Interface | Communication requirements depend on the installed machine generation and interface |
Customers can provide their minimum and maximum PCB dimensions when requesting a quotation. We will check whether the conveyor fitted to the available machine is suitable for the intended production line.
The feeder capacity of a placement machine describes the available feeder positions; it does not mean that the same number of feeders is included with a used machine. Feeder tables, tape feeders, nozzles and tray-handling equipment may be included, optional or quoted separately.
For product changeovers, the suitability of the machine depends on the feeder families already used in the factory, the required tape widths and whether components are supplied from tape, sticks, trays or another feeding system.
| Feeding Requirement | Details to Check |
|---|---|
| Tape-Fed Components | Feeder family, tape width, feeder quantity and machine compatibility |
| Tray-Fed Components | Tray holder or changer, available machine space and supported package dimensions |
| Stick-Fed Components | Compatible stick feeder and component presentation method |
| Offline Setup | Feeder-table configuration and available setup or verification equipment |
Depending on the installed configuration, SIPLACE D-series equipment may use digital component imaging, vacuum monitoring, force sensing and PCB height or warpage compensation to control component pickup and placement.
These functions can help detect missing pickups, component-position offsets and incorrect component release. The camera type, active sensors and available process-control functions should still be verified on the specific D3i machine being offered.
Providing basic production information makes it easier to determine whether an available D3i is suitable. Customers do not need to know the exact placement-head name before contacting us.
| Information from the Buyer | How It Is Used |
|---|---|
| Minimum and Maximum PCB Size | Used to check the conveyor and board-handling configuration |
| Smallest and Largest Components | Used to evaluate heads, cameras, nozzles and feeder requirements |
| Required Production Output | Used to assess whether the installed head configuration is appropriate |
| Existing Feeder Type | Used to check compatibility with the customer’s current SIPLACE equipment |
| Destination Country | Used to prepare delivery, voltage and logistics information |
GEEKVALUE can assist with sourcing SIPLACE D3i placement machines according to current availability. Before quotation, we check the model identification, head configuration, cameras, conveyor, feeder equipment, software and accessories available with the machine.
Contact us with your PCB and component requirements. We will provide the available machine information, current photos, confirmed delivery scope, price and estimated delivery time for review.
No. They are treated as separate product records. SIPLACE D3 speed, head combinations and component limits should not be used to describe a D3i unless the identification and technical documents of the available machine confirm the same configuration.
This should not be assumed. Very small component placement normally depends on the installed head, high-resolution camera, dedicated nozzles, suitable feeder modules and compatible software. All of these items must be checked on the available machine.
A fixed speed is not listed here because a verified standalone D3i specification and the head configuration of the available machine have not been confirmed. Placement output will be provided when reliable machine documentation is available.
Feeders and feeder tables may be included or quoted separately. The final quotation will list the quantity, type and condition of all feeders and accessories included in the delivery scope.
Yes. Current photos and available configuration information will be provided during the inquiry and quotation process. Reference images on the product page should not be treated as confirmation of a specific machine.
If you are not sure whether this product matches your machine, send us the model, label photo or old part picture for checking.
