Short answer: The Siemens Siplace SX2 — now sold under the ASM SX2 name — is a high-end modular SMT pick and place machine built for ultra-high-speed, high-precision electronics manufacturing. It handles components from 01005 chips up to large ICs and connectors, and it accepts Siplace X Feeders from 8 mm to 56 mm along with Siplace Intelligent Feeder Systems and tray, stick and vibratory feeders. Wenzhan lists the machine with a 1-year warranty, foam-protected carton packing and delivery via UPS, DHL or FedEx, in condition "New, New/used". The listing publishes no CPH figure, accuracy number or dimensions — request those for the exact configuration you intend to buy.
The SX2 sits in the Siplace SX platform: a modular placement system rather than a fixed single-purpose machine. "Modular" is the operative word. The platform is designed so that configuration — heads, feeder positions and feeder types — is matched to the production profile, which is why the same machine name can be quoted at very different performance levels by different suppliers.
Two naming conventions apply to the same platform. The listing carries it as brand Siemens, model Siplace SX2, and states that the machine is now branded ASM SX2. Quote both names — Siplace SX2 and ASM SX2 — when sourcing feeders or spares.
One point needs stating plainly. The condition field reads "New, New/used" — that covers two different states of machine, and the page does not say which unit a given order will ship. Treat condition as a per-unit question and confirm it in writing before ordering.

The listing presents speed, accuracy and physical data as qualitative claims only: "very high CPH output" and "outstanding placement accuracy" come without figures, and there are no dimensions, weight, head count, feeder count or power-and-air requirements. Put those questions to the supplier — see the selection checklist below.
The published range runs from 01005 chip components at the small end to large ICs and connectors at the large end. That span keeps mixed boards on one platform: the machine placing the smallest passive parts also places the bulky connectors that would otherwise need a separate step.
Feeder compatibility is where the SX2's modularity becomes practical, and it is the detail most worth checking against your own bill of materials:
Siplace X Feeder, 8 mm to 56 mm — the workhorse range for tape-packaged components.
Siplace Intelligent Feeder Systems — the smart feeder layer of the Siplace ecosystem.
Tray feeders for IC components.
Stick feeders for tube-packed parts.
Vibratory feeders for special components.
Before quoting, list your feeder mix by tape width and package type — feeder cost and availability often matter as much as the machine itself.
The listing positions the SX2 for both high-speed mass production and high-mix PCB assembly. Those demands pull in opposite directions: mass production wants speed and stability, high-mix wants fast changeover. So the practical question is not "is the SX2 fast?" but "which configuration is being quoted, and does it match my mix?" Ask for the configuration in writing.
The Siplace SX2 is listed for:
Consumer electronics production
Automotive electronics manufacturing
Communication and networking equipment
Industrial control systems
Medical and high-reliability electronics
All five share boards that mix fine-pitch chips with larger parts and demand repeatable placement over long runs. Within a line, the SX2 occupies the placement stage: boards arrive from the solder paste printer and SPI, pass through placement, then continue to AOI and reflow. Because Wenzhan supplies the whole chain, upstream and downstream equipment can be specified to match the placement machine rather than discovered afterwards.
Because the listing carries no numbers, a written question list is the fastest way to compare quotations:
Which exact SX2 unit or configuration is being quoted, and what is its build year?
What CPH does that configuration achieve on comparable product, and under what test conditions?
What placement accuracy is guaranteed for that configuration, and how is it verified?
How many placement heads and feeder positions does the quoted configuration have?
Machine dimensions, weight, and power-and-air requirements for site preparation?
Is the unit new or new/used, and what exactly was replaced or refurbished?
Which feeders, nozzles and spare parts are included, and which are priced separately?
Any supplier quoting a specific CPH or accuracy figure should be able to explain how it was established; if not, treat the quotation as unverified.
Placement heads and nozzles — condition, wear, and whether the head set matches your component mix.
Feeder bank — feeder types and quantity, plus the condition of the intelligent feeders.
Vision system and lighting — the accuracy claim rests on this subsystem.
Conveyor and board handling — width range and how boards transfer in and out.
Software and controls — version, licensing and language configuration.
Frame, covers and safety systems — mechanical condition and interlocks.
The supplier states that all equipment is fully tested before shipment. Use that as an inspection right rather than a promise: ask for a power-on run, photos and video of the specific unit, and a placement test on your own board.
Per the listing: 1-year warranty, carton box with foam protect packing, and delivery via UPS, DHL, FedEx or as required. The supplier also states installation, training, maintenance and technical service support, and describes stock as large. Confirm the warranty scope — what is covered and how a claim is handled — in the sales contract, and agree the shipping method and packing specification before dispatch.
What is the Siemens Siplace SX2? A high-end modular SMT pick and place machine (multi-function chip mounter) from the Siplace SX platform, listed by Shenzhen Wenzhan Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., handling components from 01005 up to large ICs and connectors.
Is the Siplace SX2 the same as the ASM SX2? Yes — the listing states that the Siemens Siplace SX2 is now branded ASM SX2. Quote both names when sourcing machines, feeders or spare parts.
What CPH and placement accuracy does the SX2 have? The listing describes ultra-high placement speed and outstanding accuracy, but publishes no CPH figure and no accuracy number. Request both for the specific configuration being quoted, together with the test conditions behind them.
Which components and feeders does it handle? Components from 01005 to large ICs and connectors. Feeder support covers Siplace X Feeder (8 mm–56 mm), Siplace Intelligent Feeder Systems, tray feeders for ICs, stick feeders and vibratory feeders for special components.
Is the machine new or used? The condition field reads "New, New/used". Because that covers both states, confirm the condition of the specific unit in writing before ordering.
What warranty, packing and delivery terms are listed? 1-year warranty, carton box with foam protect, and delivery by UPS, DHL, FedEx or as required.
Where can I get SX2 feeders and spare parts? The supplier states it supplies SX2 machines, feeders and spare parts together, with installation, training and technical service. Ask for the feeder list matched to your tape widths.
The SX2 is a platform, so a useful quotation describes a configuration — heads, feeder count, feeder types and unit condition — not just a model name. Send your component range, feeder mix and target output, and ask for the quoted configuration in writing along with photos, build year and terms. Compare it with the other Siemens pick and place machines in stock, including the Siemens X4i S, or browse the wider SMT pick and place machine range if a different platform suits your product better. Feeder carts, nozzles and other SMT spare parts come from the same supplier.
