Build your SMT line

SMT line

Core SMT stages, with optional marking, cleaning and buffering.

Additional equipment

Explore other processes and support equipment. These are not a single connected production sequence.

Built around your production

Plan the line around
your production.

A complete SMT line starts with your boards, components and production goals. Choose the situation closest to yours, then see what needs to be confirmed.

A new production setup

Plan the complete process
before choosing models.

Bring printing, placement, soldering and inspection into one equipment discussion. Start with a workable process and floor plan, then compare the models and accessories needed at each stage.

Start with
PCB sizes, component list, daily output and available floor space.
Review together
Process sequence, equipment interfaces, utilities and the initial spare-parts list.

The configuration conversation

Six things that shape your line.

Share what you know. If a detail is still undecided, include it in the discussion.

01

Your PCB

Board or panel dimensions, thickness, weight and single- or double-sided assembly.

02

Components & feeding

Package range, fine-pitch devices and tape, tray or tube feeding. A BOM helps clarify the mix.

03

Production target

Required boards per shift, batch size and product mix. Catalogue speed alone is not your line output.

04

Soldering & inspection

Solder paste, thermal process, inspection points and any through-hole or coating requirements.

05

Space & utilities

Floor plan, maintenance access, power, compressed air, exhaust and nitrogen if required.

06

Budget & existing equipment

Budget range, machines to retain, destination country and the timing you are working toward.

Start with your production

Build your production brief.

No account needed. Fill in the basics, then review the brief in your SMT line inquiry.

01 / Boards & components
02 / Annual production demand

For each board design, combine placements on both sides. Enter the number of boards you expect to make in one year. Use the same basis for panels and quantities.

Board 1

Annual placement demand is a planning input. Required hourly output also depends on working hours, changeovers and the process. This does not generate a machine recommendation or price.

Your entries stay in this browser until you send the inquiry. You can edit the brief before sending.

Before committing to a configuration

A machine list is only
the starting point.

The important details sit between the machines: board flow, interfaces, accessories and evidence for the actual equipment being quoted.

New or used, single-brand or mixed-brand: compatibility needs to be checked for the specific configuration.

01 Check the connections
Confirm PCB transport direction, working height, board range and transfer interfaces. Software communication depends on the models, options and licences involved.
02 Review the actual machines
Ask for current photos, nameplate details, configuration and included accessories. Agree the inspection or running evidence needed for each machine before purchase.
03 Define what is included
Discuss feeders, nozzles, tooling, spare parts, documentation and packing. Installation, training and commissioning scope should be confirmed in the quotation.
From your brief to shipment

Make the next step clear.

Equipment selection and practical delivery questions stay in the same conversation.

  1. 01

    Discuss your production

    Share your boards, component requirements, target output and floor plan.

    Focus: a clear project brief
  2. 02

    Review the configuration

    Compare equipment choices, retained machines, accessories and layout constraints.

    Focus: an agreed equipment scope
  3. 03

    Confirm the quoted units

    Review availability, actual-machine details, inspection arrangements and quotation terms.

    Focus: evidence before purchase
  4. 04

    Plan packing & handover

    Coordinate export packing, destination details and freight handover for the agreed scope.

    Focus: a defined shipment plan
A few practical questions

Before we start.

No fixed model list yet?
Your production brief is enough to begin.

Can I keep some of my existing machines?

Yes, you can start the discussion with an upgrade rather than a complete replacement. Share the existing models, board-flow direction, working height and the process you want to improve. Compatibility must be checked before the configuration is agreed.

Can a line combine different brands?

A mixed-brand configuration can be considered, but mechanical transfer and software communication are separate checks. We review the proposed equipment and interfaces; a shared brand name or connector does not by itself confirm integration.

How is the production target used?

Provide the required boards per shift, component mix and typical batch sizes. These help frame equipment selection and identify constraints. Actual output depends on the board, program, process and changeovers; an equipment catalogue figure is not a guaranteed line result.

Are installation and training included?

Confirm the required installation, training or commissioning support during the quotation discussion. The service scope, responsibilities and any associated costs should be agreed for the specific project.
