[0002] Solder paste is a new type of welding material that came into being with SMT. It is a paste-like mixture formed by mixing solder powder, flux and other surfactants, thixotropic agents, etc. It is mainly used for welding electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, and ICs on the surface of PCBs in the SMT industry. In the processing of PCBs, in order to ensure the welding quality, the solder paste needs to be evenly applied to the PCB through a wiping mechanism.

[0006] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a frame, a cylinder passing through the middle of the frame, and a pressure head is installed on the output end of the cylinder; a position sensor is also installed on the frame, and when the position sensor detects that the PCB is in place, the cylinder drives the pressure head to press the dust-free cloth down to the surface of the PCB to prepare for cleaning.
[0007] Preferably, a guide shaft with a bushing is installed between the frame and the pressure head to ensure that the pressure head can be lifted and lowered in a vertical direction to achieve a guiding effect.
[0008] Preferably, the alcohol spraying mechanism is arranged on one side of the pressure head, and the alcohol spraying mechanism is installed on the bottom end surface of the frame, wherein the alcohol spraying mechanism is a nozzle. After the cylinder rises, the solenoid valve controls the alcohol pot to squeeze the alcohol into the nozzle and then spray it onto the PCB surface, and then the cylinder presses the clean dust-free cloth down to the PCB surface.
[0009] Preferably, the material collecting mechanism includes a motor and a roller frame installed on the output end of the motor, wherein the motor as a power source can drive the roller frame to perform a dirty cloth collecting movement; when collecting dirty cloth, the motor starts to idle after reaching a specified torque, and the motor always keeps the dust-free cloth in a tensioning action.
[0010] Preferably, the structure of the discharging mechanism is the same as that of the receiving mechanism, that is, the servo motor can be used as a power source to drive the workpiece to perform the dust-free cloth discharging movement; every mm of wiping, the servo motor performs the dust-free cloth discharging action, and then the cylinder rises and collects the material, and the cleaning function is realized in a cycle. Sensor 2 detects the diameter of the roller frame on the discharging mechanism. When it is lower than the set value, it prompts the operator to prepare to replace the dust-free cloth roll.

After wiping the non-woven fabric, the solenoid valve controls the gas to dry the alcohol on the surface of the product, and sensor 3 detects the dirt on the surface of the product.
[0012] During use, the product is manually placed at the loading station in the tooling. After the external sensor detects the presence or absence, the motor and the servo motor on the discharge mechanism drive the solder paste wiping mechanism to move. First, alcohol is sprayed on the PCB surface, the discharge mechanism is activated, the positioning mechanism presses the dust-free cloth to fit the PCB surface and reciprocates, and the collecting mechanism recycles the dirty cloth, and the cycle is repeated to clean the solder paste on the product surface.
