Printer, method of operating a printer, and substrate processing mechanism

By using a substrate processing mechanism in an inkjet printing system, which utilizes two actuators to keep different parts of the substrate rotating in situ, the problem of low production efficiency when processing substrates with different orientations is solved, thus improving the printer's productivity.

Abstract

A printer includes a substrate support, a print head assembly, first and second actuators, and a controller. The print head assembly deposits material on a substrate supported by the substrate support. The first actuator is disposed at a side of the substrate support and is coupled to a first linear track disposed along the side of the substrate support and oriented in a first direction. The second actuator is disposed at an end of the substrate support and is coupled to a second linear track disposed along the end of the substrate support and oriented in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The first and second actuators are positioned to simultaneously engage the substrate. The controller moves the first and second actuators together to rotate the substrate.
