[0002] In the flat panel display industry, FOG is an essential post-process during the assembly and bonding of flat panel display devices, and its function is to bind, cure, and bond the FPC to the glass substrate.

[0003] After retrieval, the patent publication number CN103191854A discloses a touch screen UV side curing device, which includes a frame comprising a shell and square tubes inside the shell; a feeding and discharging mechanism located inside the shell, which is a platform structure, and both ends of the feeding and discharging mechanism are connected to the guide rails on the frame; a lifting mechanism comprising a lifting table, and the lifting table pushes the product on the feeding and discharging mechanism to rise or fall; a UV linear light source placed inside the square tubes and surrounding the lifting table; a light source adjusting mechanism located outside the square tubes, connected to the square tubes and controlling the size of the area enclosed by the square tubes; wherein, the upper feeding and discharging mechanism and the lower feeding and discharging mechanism run alternately along the guide rails, and the lifting table pushes the product up to the area enclosed by the square tubes. The touch screen UV side curing device provided in this case can achieve deep curing, has a high degree of automation, and can produce continuously.
