Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tray technology, and in particular to a functional substrate tray. Background Technology

[0002] Substrate trays are core tooling in the electronics manufacturing industry used to support, transport, and store precision electronic components such as PCBs, FPCs, and semiconductor packaging substrates. As the electronics industry develops towards multi-variety, small-batch, and rapid iteration, the specifications of substrates produced by companies are increasing, placing ever higher demands on the versatility, stacking accuracy, and structural strength of trays. Currently, most mainstream substrate trays on the market adopt an integral injection-molded structure, which has the following drawbacks: 1. Poor versatility: Existing substrate trays can only accommodate a single substrate specification, resulting in high mold investment and tray inventory costs; 2. Insufficient structural strength: To reduce costs, existing trays generally adopt a thin-walled design, and the reinforcing rib structure is unreasonable, making them prone to bending and deformation after long-term use.
