Abstract

A screen printing apparatus and method for printing deposits of a print medium on workpieces, the apparatus comprising: a frame support unit for supporting a printing screen unit which comprises a screen sheet which includes at least first and second patterns of print apertures; a workpiece support unit; a print head unit; and at least one screen cleaning unit; wherein the at least one screen cleaning unit and the print head unit are operated in parallel, whereby, when the printing screen unit is in the first printing position, the at least one screen cleaning unit cleans the underside of the screen sheet at a location corresponding to one of the first and second sets of print apertures and the print head unit prints print medium onto workpieces through the other of the first and second sets of print apertures.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to screen printing apparatus and methods for printing a deposit of printing medium onto a workpiece (typically a substrate such as a circuit board or wafer) by means of a printing screen (or commonly referred to as a stencil or foil). Background technique [0002] In the screen printing process, especially in the SMT industry, the printing hole is usually blocked due to the printing medium flowing out between the printing screen and the workpiece drying on the surface of the printing screen and collecting in the printing hole. The accumulation of printing medium on the printing screen will thus lead to gradual contamination of the printing screen. [0003] Current screen printing machines incorporate a screen cleaning unit which is operated periodically to clean the underside of the printing screen. These screen cleaning units collect excess print media removed from the printing screen by applying a solvent, a screen clea...
