ASM HYBRID SMT & DIE ATTACH EQUIPMENT

ASM SIPLACE CA Series: CA2 & CA4 Placement Machines

The ASM SIPLACE CA Series was created for production lines where a conventional SMT placement machine alone is no longer enough. Modern SiP modules and advanced electronic products often combine standard SMD components with unpackaged semiconductor dies taken directly from a wafer. Producing these assemblies traditionally requires separate SMT placement and die-bonding equipment. SIPLACE CA machines bring these processes together by handling feeder-supplied components, die attach and flip-chip placement within an integrated production platform, helping manufacturers simplify complex assembly flows while maintaining the precision and traceability required for advanced packaging.

SIPLACE CA4 Configuration

What to Confirm When Selecting a SIPLACE CA4 Machine

Available SIPLACE CA4 machines may use different placement heads, wafer-handling modules, conveyors, software versions, inspection functions and process options. The exact configuration determines the supported component range, wafer format, substrate size, accuracy and production capability.

Before quotation, confirm the machine nameplate, manufacturing year, installed modules, placement system, wafer equipment, conveyor arrangement, software and included accessories. This helps match the machine to the intended die attach, flip-chip or mixed-placement process.

Send your wafer format, die dimensions, substrate size, target accuracy, production output and preferred machine condition for configuration matching.

Production Applications

Applications to Evaluate for a SIPLACE CA Machine

Application suitability depends on the selected model and installed configuration. Match the equipment to the material source, substrate, accuracy, inspection and production-flow requirements.

01

System-in-Package

Mixed assemblies that combine bare dies, passive components and packaged ICs in compact modules.

02

Wafer-Level Packaging

High-accuracy processes involving direct die handling, inspection and traceability requirements.

03

Panel-Level Packaging
