Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein may be combined with each other unless there is a conflict.

[0049] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0050] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up, down, top, bottom", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity direction; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above directional words are not used to limit the present invention.

[0051] During the FPC production process, film materials often need to be laminated onto flexible circuit boards. Conventional techniques typically use sheets to laminate the flexible circuit board and film materials, often requiring molds for positioning. This results in low lamination efficiency, a low degree of automation, and the tendency for lamination offset to occur, impacting product quality. To address these technical issues, the present invention proposes a method and system for laminating thin film materials onto flexible circuit boards.

[0052] Example 1

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a flexible circuit board film material bonding method, which can be applied to a flexible circuit board film material bonding device 10 (such as Figure 3 The device may include a film discharging device 12, a film cutting device 14, a waste recycling device 16, a circuit board discharging device 13, a circuit board identification and positioning device 15, a film laminating device 17, a circuit board winding device 18, and a controller 11, which is connected to each device.

[0054] Under the control of the controller 11, the film discharging device 12 can be used to transport the film roll to the film cutting device 14, the film cutting device 14 can be used to cut the film roll to obtain a film roll with windows, the waste recycling device 16 can be used to recycle the waste generated by cutting, the circuit board discharging device 13 can be used to transport the circuit board roll to the circuit board identification and positioning device 15, the circuit board identification and positioning device 15 can be used to identify and locate the circuit board segments in the circuit board roll, the film pressing device 17 can be used to laminate the cut film roll with windows and the circuit board roll, and the circuit board winding device 18 can be used to wind up the laminated circuit board roll and the film roll with windows.

[0055] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the flexible circuit board film material bonding method includes the following steps:

[0056] S100, aligning the film roll and the circuit board roll to obtain the cutting correction coordinates of the film cutting device 14;

[0057] S200, obtaining the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll according to the cutting correction coordinates of the film cutting device 14 and the real-time identification coordinates of the circuit board roll;

[0058] S300, cutting the film roll according to the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll to obtain a film roll with windows;

[0059] S400 , conveying the film roll with the window and the circuit board roll to the film laminating device 17 for lamination to obtain a finished flexible circuit board.

[0060] The roll-to-roll bonding of film materials and flexible circuit boards can be achieved, and before the film roll and the circuit board roll are formally bonded, they need to be aligned and checked to detect whether there is a bonding deviation when the film roll and the circuit board roll are bonded; when it is detected that there is a bonding deviation between the film roll and the circuit board roll during the bonding process, the cutting correction coordinates of the film cutting device 14 for cutting the film roll can be obtained; then the film roll can be formally cut according to the cutting correction coordinates, and when formally cutting, the real-time identification coordinates of the circuit board roll can be obtained first, and then the corresponding real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll can be obtained; then the film roll is cut according to the obtained real-time cutting coordinates, so that a film roll with a window that is completely corresponding to the circuit board segment on the circuit board roll is cut on the film roll; then, the cut film roll with a window and the circuit board roll are transported to the film pressing device 17 for pressing and bonding, so that the film roll with the window and the circuit board segment of the circuit board roll are completely corresponding and bonded.

[0061] In this way, not only can the roll-to-roll continuous bonding of film materials and flexible circuit boards be achieved, the degree of bonding automation and bonding efficiency can be improved, but the film materials and flexible circuit boards can also be bonded neatly without bonding deviations, providing safe and reliable protection for the flexible circuit boards and ensuring product quality.

[0062] Furthermore, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the circuit board roll may include multiple circuit board segments connected end to end, and each circuit board segment can form a circuit board product after subsequent processing. The film roll, on the other hand, is a continuous, long strip of film material with a release film disposed on its bottom. During the lamination process of the circuit board roll and the film roll, multiple windows are cut into the continuous, long strip of film material to form a film roll with windows. Each circuit board segment corresponds to a segment of the film roll with windows, so that each segment of the film roll with windows can be completely laminated to a circuit board segment until all circuit board segments of the circuit board roll are laminated to the film roll with windows. Furthermore, when the film roll is cut, the film to be laminated attached to the release film will be cut through, but the release film will not be cut through. This ensures that the release film and the film waste attached to the release film that is cut off form a continuous roll, which is convenient for recycling.

[0063] Alternatively, multiple film sheets can be cut from a continuous strip of film material and bonded to each circuit board segment until all circuit board segments in the circuit board roll are bonded to the film sheets. A person skilled in the art can determine the bonding method for multiple film sheets to each circuit board segment by referring to the contents of this specification.

[0064] Furthermore, the film cutting device 14 may include a film cutting platform and a laser cutter located above the film cutting platform. The film cutting platform is used to place and position the film roll delivered by the film discharging device 12, while the laser cutter is used to cut the film roll positioned on the film cutting platform. To ensure accurate positioning and cutting, the film cutting platform also includes a vacuum adsorption device for vacuum adsorbing the film material on the platform. Moreover, in step 100, before aligning the film roll and the circuit board roll, the following steps may also be included:

[0065] S102 : Control the initial cutting point of the film cutting device 14 to coincide with a cutting positioning point preset on the film cutting device 14 and located at a fixed coordinate position.

[0066] Before cutting the film roll, it is necessary to first position the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 so that the initial cutting coordinates of the laser cutter can be cleared. This makes it easier to align the film roll and the circuit board roll so that they can be accurately bonded.

[0067] When positioning the film cutting device 14 , the laser cutter of the mobile film cutting device 14 may be positioned to a cutting positioning point pre-set at a fixed coordinate position on the film cutting platform of the mobile film cutting device 14 to achieve positioning of the laser cutter.

[0068] S104 , clearing the initial cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 , and setting the cleared coordinates as the origin cutting coordinates of the film cutting device.

[0069] After the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 is positioned, the origin cutting coordinates of the positioned laser cutter can be determined, so as to start cutting the film roll at the origin cutting coordinates.

[0070] In addition, the circuit board identification and positioning device 15 may include a circuit board positioning platform and a circuit board identification camera. The circuit board positioning platform is used to place and absorb the circuit board roll delivered by the circuit board discharge device 13, while the circuit board identification camera can identify and locate the circuit board roll on the circuit board positioning platform, and can obtain all the circuit board identification coordinates of the circuit board roll. Moreover, in step 100, before the film roll and the circuit board roll are aligned, the following steps may also be included:

[0071] S106 , controlling the film discharging device 12 to continuously deliver the film roll to the film cutting device 14 .

[0072] Before cutting the film roll, it is necessary to first transport the film roll on the film discharging device 12 to the film cutting platform of the film cutting device 14, and continuously place and adsorb part of the film roll on the film cutting platform to facilitate the laser cutter to cut this part of the film roll until all the film rolls are cut.

[0073] S108 , controlling the circuit board discharging device 13 to continuously convey the circuit board coil to the circuit board identification and positioning device 15 .

[0074] Before cutting the film roll, the circuit board roll must be positioned and identified so that the film roll with the window openings to be cut can be determined based on the specific information of the circuit board segments on the circuit board roll (such as the dimensions, model, coordinate position, etc.). At this time, the circuit board roll from the circuit board discharge device 13 can be transported to the circuit board positioning platform of the circuit board identification and positioning device 15. The circuit board recognition camera installed above the circuit board positioning platform can identify and locate the circuit board segments on the circuit board roll to obtain information about the circuit board segments on the circuit board roll.

[0075] Furthermore, in step 100, the film roll and the circuit board roll are aligned to obtain the cutting correction coordinates of the film cutting device 14, which may include the following steps:

[0076] S110: Align the film roll and the circuit board roll to obtain a lamination deviation between the film roll and the circuit board roll.

[0077] Before officially laminating the film roll and circuit board roll, a trial lamination and alignment check is required to detect any lamination deviation between the film roll and the circuit board roll. Deviations between the film roll and the circuit board roll indicate that they are not completely aligned, resulting in uneven lamination. Therefore, if deviations are detected during lamination, the corresponding lamination deviations can be obtained.

[0078] S120 , obtaining the corrected cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 according to the original cutting coordinates and the lamination deviation of the film cutting device 14 .

[0079] After obtaining the fitting deviation between the film roll and the circuit board roll during fitting through trial fitting, the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 can be adjusted, and the cutting correction coordinates can be obtained in combination with the original cutting coordinates of the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14, so as to facilitate the subsequent cutting of the film roll according to the cutting correction coordinates to obtain a film roll with windows that can completely correspond to the circuit board segment of the circuit board roll.

[0080] Furthermore, in step S110, the film roll and the circuit board roll are aligned to obtain the lamination deviation between the film roll and the circuit board roll, which may include the following steps:

[0081] S112 , obtaining initial recognition coordinates of an initial recognition mark of an initial segment of a circuit board of the circuit board coil, and clearing the initial recognition coordinates to set the initial recognition coordinates as origin coordinates.

[0082] Before trial bonding the circuit board roll and the film roll, the circuit board recognition camera of the circuit board recognition and positioning device 15 can be controlled to first recognize the initial circuit board segment of the circuit board roll, so as to determine the initial circuit board segment of the circuit board roll, and obtain the initial recognition coordinates of the initial recognition mark of the initial circuit board segment. The initial recognition coordinates can be used as the origin coordinates of the circuit board roll, so as to calculate the coordinates of subsequent circuit board segments of the circuit board roll with the origin coordinates, and also to set the starting (cutting) coordinates of the film roll corresponding to the origin coordinates.

[0083] S114 , cutting the initial film segments of the film roll according to the original cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 to obtain an initial film roll with windows.

[0084] After determining the origin coordinates of the circuit board roll, the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 can be controlled to move to the cutting origin position of the film roll, and the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 can be controlled to cut the film roll to obtain an initial film roll with a window corresponding to the initial segment of the circuit board on the circuit board roll, and the shapes and sizes of the two correspond to each other.

[0085] Moreover, if Figure 2 As shown, when the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 cuts the film roll, the laser cutter of the film cutting device has the original cutting coordinates (A i , B i ) (i is the serial number of the original cutting point, i = 1, 2, 3...). Specifically, since the circuit board roll and the film roll to be bonded correspond to each other, the circuit board recognition coordinates of the circuit board roll correspond to the original cutting coordinates of the film roll. Therefore, when the circuit board recognition camera obtains the circuit board recognition coordinates of the circuit board recognition point of the circuit board roll as (X j , Y j )(j is the serial number of the subsequent segment of the circuit board, j = 1, 2, 3...), the original cutting coordinates obtained by the laser cutter for cutting the film roll also correspond to (A i , B i )(i=1,2,3…).

[0086] In addition, it should be pointed out that the film roll is a continuous long strip of film material and does not need to be segmented (that is, there are no film fragments). The initial film fragments can be artificially divided fragments to correspond to the initial fragments of the circuit board. One film fragment can be cut to correspond to one flexible board fragment, or multiple film fragments can correspond to one flexible board fragment. Such a film roll can adapt to circuit board fragments of different shapes and sizes.

[0087] S116 , controlling the film laminating device 17 to laminate the initial film roll with the window and the initial circuit board segment of the circuit board roll to obtain an initial product segment of the circuit board product.

[0088] After determining the initial circuit board segment of the circuit board roll and cutting out the corresponding initial film roll with windows on the film roll, the two can be transported to the film pressing device 17 for pressing and bonding, thereby obtaining the initial product segment of the circuit board product.

[0089] S118. Control the optical measuring instrument to detect the initial product segment of the circuit board product, and obtain the lamination deviation of the initial product segment of the circuit board product relative to the initial film roll with the window in the forward direction and the transverse direction of the roll.

[0090] After obtaining the initial segment of the circuit board product, it can be inspected using an optical measuring instrument to determine whether the initial film roll with window openings and the initial segment of the circuit board are fully aligned and whether their edges completely correspond. If the initial film roll with window openings and the initial segment of the circuit board are not aligned, their edges will be misaligned. However, since the dimensions and shape of the initial film roll with window openings are cut according to the dimensions and shape of the initial segment of the circuit board, meaning that the shapes of the two are completely aligned, the misalignment between the two is due to the initial film roll with window openings being offset relative to the initial segment of the circuit board.

[0091] Therefore, when it is detected that the initial film roll with window openings and the initial circuit board segment are not aligned, the alignment deviation (X0, Y0) of the initial film roll with window openings relative to the initial circuit board segment in the length direction (i.e., the roll's forward direction) and the width direction (i.e., the roll's transverse direction) can be further detected, where X0 is the alignment deviation in the length direction and Y0 is the alignment deviation in the width direction. In this embodiment, during the lamination process, it is assumed that the film roll's forward direction and the circuit board roll's forward direction are consistent, that is, there is no angular deviation between the initial film roll with window openings and the initial circuit board segment.

[0092] Furthermore, in step S120, obtaining the corrected cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 according to the original cutting coordinates and the lamination deviation of the film cutting device 14 may include the following steps:

[0093] S122 , obtaining the original cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 . The original cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 are pre-set by engineers according to the pattern of the circuit board and stored in the controller 900 .

[0094] S124 , obtaining the corrected cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 based on the obtained original cutting coordinates of the film cutting device 14 and the obtained lamination deviation.

[0095] When it is detected that there is a fitting deviation between the initial film roll with windows and the initial segment of the circuit board, the cutting coordinate position of the film roll with windows on the film roll can be adjusted, that is, the cutting coordinates of the laser cutter of the film cutting equipment 14 can be adjusted, so that the film roll with windows obtained by cutting the film roll by the adjusted laser cutter of the film cutting equipment 14 can completely correspond to the circuit board segment of the circuit board roll, and there is no deviation.

[0096] Before adjusting the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14, the original cutting coordinates (A i , B i )(i=1, 2, 3…), combined with the lamination deviation (X0, Y0) obtained in the previous step, the cutting correction coordinates (A) of the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 can be obtained. i -X0,B i -Y0)(i=1, 2, 3...).

[0097] Furthermore, due to the expansion and contraction characteristics of the film material, when the film material is bonded to the flexible circuit board, the film roll with windows needs to be peeled off from the release film through waste recycling equipment. During the peeling process, the film roll with windows will cause slight deformation of the film material (i.e., the expansion and contraction of the film material), which will cause the cutting correction coordinates of the laser cutter to change.

[0098] Obtain the original cutting coordinates (M1, N1) and (M2, N2) of any two original cutting points C1 and C2 on the initial film segment of the film roll. The coordinate difference between these two original cutting points during the cutting process is (M2-M1, N2-N1). There can be at least two circuit board identification points on the initial segment of the circuit board, and correspondingly, there can be at least two original cutting points on the initial film segment.

[0099] However, due to the expansion and contraction of the film material during lamination, the coordinate difference between the two original cutting points C1 and C2 after the initial segment of the circuit board and the initial segment of the film are obtained by the optical measuring instrument is (P1, Q1). The expansion and contraction deformation of the film material can be obtained as (P1 / (M2-M1), Q1 / (N2-N1)), where P1 / (M2-M1) is the expansion and contraction of the film material in the length direction (X-axis direction), and Q1 / (N2-N1) is the expansion and contraction of the film material in the width direction (Y-axis direction). Since the lamination deviation (X0, Y0) is the deviation of the film material after expansion and contraction, and the laser cutter cuts the film material before expansion and contraction, the lamination deviation (X0, Y0) needs to be corrected for the expansion and contraction before it can be used to correct the cutting correction coordinates of the laser cutter.

[0100] Therefore, after considering the expansion and contraction deformation of the film material, the cutting correction coordinates of the laser cutter can be obtained as ((A i -X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i -Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1)))(i=1, 2, 3...), which are all the film cutting coordinates of the film roll.

[0101] In addition, it should be noted that this step S100 does not need to be performed every time the film roll with a window is cut and pasted, but is only performed when the device is used for the first time, or when the roll is replaced (including circuit board roll or film roll), or when the tension parameters of the device change.

[0102] In addition, in step S200, the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll are obtained according to the cutting correction coordinates of the film cutting device 14 and the real-time identification coordinates of the circuit board roll, including the following steps:

[0103] S210: Acquire real-time identification coordinates of subsequent identification marks of subsequent circuit board segments following the initial circuit board segment of the circuit board coil.

[0104] After the film roll and the circuit board roll are aligned and the cutting correction coordinates of the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 are obtained, the film roll and the circuit board roll can be formally bonded. At this time, the circuit board recognition camera of the circuit board recognition and positioning device 15 can be controlled to first recognize the subsequent circuit board segment of the circuit board roll (that is, the circuit board segment behind the initial circuit board segment). The subsequent circuit board segment of the circuit board roll can be determined, and the circuit board recognition coordinates (X) of the subsequent recognition mark of the subsequent circuit board segment can be obtained based on the initial recognition coordinates of the initial circuit board segment. j , Y j )(j=1,2,3…), so that it is convenient to obtain the film cutting coordinates (A) of the film roll by the circuit board identification coordinates. i+X j -X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y j -Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))) (i=1, 2, 3...; j=1, 2, 3...).

[0105] Moreover, in this embodiment, both the subsequent identification mark and the initial identification mark can be identification marks such as identification dots or identification text patterns. Furthermore, a plurality of circuit board segments are sequentially arranged on the circuit board coil, wherein the first circuit board segment can be referred to as the initial circuit board segment, and the circuit board segments following the first circuit board segment (such as the second circuit board segment, the third circuit board segment, and so on) can be referred to as subsequent circuit board segments. Furthermore, each circuit board segment is provided with an identification mark, wherein the identification mark on the initial circuit board segment can be referred to as the initial identification mark, and the identification marks on the subsequent circuit board segments can be referred to as subsequent identification marks.

[0106] Specifically, the circuit board identification coordinates (X j , Y j )(j=1, 2, 3...) It can be seen that when the second circuit board segment needs to be joined, its real-time recognition coordinates can be obtained as (X1, Y1); similarly, when the third circuit board segment needs to be joined, its real-time recognition coordinates can be obtained as (X2, Y2); similarly, when the fourth circuit board segment needs to be joined, its real-time recognition coordinates can be obtained as (X3, Y3), and so on. In this embodiment, it is possible to set a circuit board recognition point on each subsequent circuit board segment, and the coordinates of the circuit board recognition point are the real-time recognition coordinates of the subsequent circuit board segment. In addition, it is possible to set multiple circuit board recognition points on each subsequent circuit board segment, and the coordinates of each circuit board recognition point are the real-time recognition coordinates of the subsequent circuit board segment.

[0107] S220 , obtaining the real-time cutting coordinates of the subsequent film segment of the film roll that is subsequent to the initial film segment of the film cutting device 14 based on the obtained cutting correction coordinates and real-time recognition coordinates of the film cutting device 14 .

[0108] Since the film roll and the circuit board roll correspond to each other during the lamination process, that is, the circuit board segment on the circuit board roll corresponds to the film segment on the film roll, and the subsequent circuit board segment on the circuit board roll corresponds to the subsequent film segment of the film roll, so that the circuit board identification coordinates (X j , Y j)(j=1, 2, 3...) corresponds to the original cutting coordinates of the subsequent film segments. Moreover, each subsequent film segment is used to cut a film segment of the film roll with a window to be bonded to a circuit board segment. In addition, it can be seen that the film segments of the film roll can be artificially divided, that is, the corresponding film segments can be divided according to the circuit board segments (including the subsequent film segments corresponding to the subsequent circuit board segments and the initial film segments corresponding to the initial circuit board segments).

[0109] Moreover, it can be seen from the above steps that the cutting correction coordinates of the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 are ((A i -X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i -Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1)))(i=1,2,3…), that is, the film cutting coordinates of all film segments of the film roll by the laser cutter are ((A i -X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i -Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1)))(i=1, 2, 3...).

[0110] The real-time identification coordinates of the subsequent segments of the circuit board can be (X1, Y1), (X2, Y2), (X3, Y3), etc. The real-time cutting coordinates of the subsequent segments of the film following the initial segment of the film roll by the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 can correspond to ((A i +X1-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y1-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), or ((A i +X2-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y2-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), or ((A i +X3-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y3-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), and so on.

[0111] For example, a film roll may have multiple film segments, wherein the first film segment may be referred to as an initial film segment, the second film segment may be referred to as a subsequent film segment, the third film segment may also be referred to as a subsequent film segment, and so on. When the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 needs to cut the second film segment of the film roll, its real-time cutting coordinates may be ((A i +X1-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i+Y1-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))); When the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 is to cut the third film segment of the film roll, its real-time cutting coordinates can be ((A i +X2-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y2-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), and so on.

[0112] In addition, in step S300, cutting the film roll according to the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll to obtain the film roll with the window may include the following steps:

[0113] S310: After obtaining the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll, locate the segment of the film roll to be cut.

[0114] After obtaining the real-time cutting coordinates for cutting the subsequent film segments of the film roll, the film cutting platform of the film cutting device 14 can be controlled to position the segment to be cut (i.e., the subsequent film segment) of the film roll and fix it in a fixed position to facilitate the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 to cut the subsequent film segment, thereby avoiding offset during the cutting process that affects the cutting accuracy.

[0115] S320 , controlling the film cutting device 14 to cut the to-be-cut segments of the film roll according to the real-time cutting coordinates of the film roll to obtain a film roll with windows.

[0116] After the film cutting platform adsorbs and positions the film segment to be cut (segment to be cut), the laser cutter of the film cutting device 14 is controlled to obtain the real-time cutting coordinates (such as (A i +X1-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y1-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), or ((A i +X2-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y2-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), or ((A i +X3-X0) / (P1 / (M2-M1)), (B i +Y3-Y0) / (Q1 / (N2-N1))), etc.), etc.), the segments to be cut are cut to obtain a film roll with windows that can be correspondingly bonded to the circuit board segments (subsequent segments of the circuit board).

[0117] Then, the above steps S200 and S300 may be repeated to complete all the cutting processes of the film roll in sequence.

[0118] After finishing cutting the second film segment at the back of the initial segment of the film roll, the third film segment can be continued to be cut, and then the fourth film segment can be continued to be cut, etc., until finishing cutting the whole film roll.

[0119] Moreover, after completing the cutting of a roll of film material, when the film of the flexible circuit board needs to be laminated, a new roll of film material can be docked at the end of the original roll of film material and the cutting of the new roll of film material can be continued.

[0120] In addition, in step S400, the film roll with the window and the circuit board roll are respectively conveyed to the film laminating device for lamination to obtain a finished flexible circuit board, which may include the following steps:

[0121] S410: peeling off the film waste attached to the film roll with windows to obtain a separate film roll with windows, and conveying the separate film roll with windows to a film laminating device.

[0122] Since the film material on the film roll is attached to the release film, when the film material is cut to obtain the film roll with windows, the film roll with windows is still attached to the release film. Therefore, when the film roll with windows is attached to the circuit board segment, it is necessary to peel off the film roll with windows from the release film, and use waste recycling equipment to recycle the release film and the cut film attached to it and other film waste, so that the separate film roll with windows can be transported to the film pressing equipment for pressing with the circuit board segment.

[0123] S420 , conveying the circuit board segments of the circuit board roll to the film laminating device, controlling the film laminating device 17 to press the circuit board segments and the corresponding film roll with windows to obtain a finished flexible circuit board.

[0124] The circuit board segments of the circuit board roll and the corresponding film roll with openings can be simultaneously conveyed to film laminating equipment 17 for alignment and lamination. During the lamination process, the lamination pressure, temperature, and time can be adjusted to ensure a tight and reliable adhesion between the film roll with openings and the circuit board segments. The lamination pressure, temperature, and time are known from the prior art and are not described in detail here.

[0125] In addition, in step S400, when the film roll with the window and the circuit board roll are respectively conveyed to the film laminating device for lamination, the following steps may also be included:

[0126] The waste recycling device 16 is controlled to recycle film waste generated during film roll cutting. When the film roll with the window is peeled off from the release film and conveyed to the film laminating device 17 for lamination, the waste film, such as the release film, separated from the film roll with the window can be recycled by the waste recycling device 16, which is also conducive to the automatic separation of film waste such as the release film from the film roll with the window.

[0127] Furthermore, in step S400, after obtaining the finished flexible circuit board, the following steps may also be included:

[0128] The circuit board winding device 18 is controlled to wind up the finished flexible circuit board. After the film roll with the window and the circuit board segments of the circuit board roll are pressed together to form the finished flexible circuit board, the film roll can be wound up by the circuit board winding device 18 until the film lamination of the entire circuit board roll is completed.

[0129] In this embodiment, when cutting the film roll, the circuit board identification and positioning device 15 is controlled to identify the identification mark on the flexible circuit board (circuit board roll), and the laser cutter is controlled to cut the film material (film roll). By sequentially identifying multiple identification marks continuously set on the flexible circuit board, during the cutting process of the film roll, the device can continuously adjust the coordinates of the cutting coordinate position, so that the cut film roll with the window can accurately correspond to the circuit board segment on the circuit board roll, thereby achieving precise positioning and fitting of the film material and the flexible circuit board; and, during the entire process, there is no need to adjust the film material and the flexible circuit board material, and continuous roll-to-roll operation can be achieved, which can greatly improve production efficiency.
