Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of substrates, and specifically relates to a full-automatic substrate distribution device. Background Art

[0002] Semiconductor packaging manufacturing belongs to a labor-intensive industry. With the continuous increase in labor costs and the increasing difficulty of manufacturing processes, it is inevitable to promote the development of automated equipment and gradually replace manual repetitive work.

[0003] Currently, the operation process of substrate distribution is that the planning department issues work orders, the material control department delivers materials to the production line, the production department receives the materials and stores them in storage locations, and the production department employees prepare for substrate distribution according to the requirements of the work orders. One work order is a master batch. To shorten the operation cycle, usually multiple sub-batches are included in the same master batch, and the same type or different types of machines with the same function jointly undertake the production tasks of each sub-batch. Personnel select substrates according to the substrate models marked on the work orders, enter the product master batch number into the substrate distribution system, and the system interface automatically displays the quantity required for this master batch. Then, the personnel check the X-out type of the in-stock substrates into the corresponding fields, and the system will automatically calculate the required quantity of different X-out substrates. Then, the employees take out the corresponding X-out substrates from the storage locations, unpack them, and load them one by one into the cartridge. After completing the substrate loading into the cartridge, the personnel scan the first sub-batch number, the sub-batch cartridge number, and the two-dimensional code of each substrate into the system, and at this time, a binding relationship is established among the master batch, sub-batch, cartridge, and substrate. The system background will also compare and judge whether the materials used are correct through the substrate two-dimensional code.

[0004] At the same time, in order to improve the operation efficiency and realize the traceability of defective products in the packaging manufacturing process, the identity information is engraved on the edge of the short side of the substrate in the substrate procurement specification. The substrate is a circuit board with multiple chips arranged in a matrix, that is, different coordinate points on one substrate represent a circuit board with a chip. If there are problems such as scratches, damages, and internal circuit damages on the substrate surface, the manufacturer will use a laser device to make laser marks at the corresponding coordinate points, and the marked points are called "X-out", so that each substrate will form an array electronic map. The electronic map is bound to the substrate two-dimensional code information, so that each substrate has independent identity information and an array electronic map. Similarly, each circuit board with a chip at the coordinate point also has independent identity information. The label on the outer package of the substrate marks the material model, the number of good products, and the X-out quantity (1X, 2X... NX). Multiple substrates in the same package have the same X-out quantity.

[0005] Currently, for manual distribution, 20 substrates are allocated to each sub-batch, with an average time consumption of about 4.3 minutes. A mother batch usually consists of 5 to 10 sub-batches, so the total time consumption is about 20 to 40 minutes. The labor cost varies according to the production scale, and the operation efficiency is low while the cost is high. Moreover, the surface of the substrate is contaminated or damaged artificially, resulting in losses in process yield and direct and indirect material losses. To avoid friction and scratching between substrates, the manufacturer will add separator paper between substrates and pack and transport them. After manual unpacking, when taking the substrate, it is required not to touch the surface of the substrate and not to bend the substrate, but still necessary to perform slight sliding or rubbing actions on the substrate for easy taking, which is likely to cause scratches, dirt or edge damage on the surface of the substrate. In severe cases, the internal circuit of the substrate will be damaged. If the abnormality cannot be detected and marked for scrapping in time at this time, the abnormal substrate will enter the subsequent production, directly causing waste of subsequent manufacturing costs and loss of yield.

[0026] As Figure 3 shown, the loading and unloading platform 2 includes a loading platform 2-1 and an unloading platform 2-3. The loading platform 2-1 and the unloading platform 2-3 are arranged in parallel in the up and down direction. Loading drive motors 2-2 are respectively provided on one side of the loading platform 2-1. An unloading drive motor 2-4 is provided on one side of the unloading platform 2-3.

[0027] As Figure 4 shown, the cartridge transfer module 3 includes a Y-axis module 3-2, a Z-axis module 3-1, and a cartridge clamping mechanism 3-3. The Y-axis module 3-2 is provided at the upper end of the workbench 8. The Z-axis module 3-1 is connected to the Y-axis module 3-2. The cartridge clamping mechanism 3-3 is connected to the Z-axis module 3-1.

[0028] As Figure 5 shown, the cartridge clamping module 4 includes a lifting motor 4-1 and a cartridge bearing platform 4-2. The lifting motor 4-1 is provided at the lower end of the workbench 8. The upper end of the lifting motor 4-1 passes through the workbench 8 and is connected to the cartridge bearing platform 4-2.

[0029] As Figure 6 shown, the suction module 5 includes a Y-axis module 5-4, a Z-axis module 5-3, a suction seat 5-5, a substrate information scanning mechanism 5-2, and a material identification mechanism 5-1. The Y-axis module 5-4 is connected to the workbench 8 through a support rod 5-6. The Z-axis module 5-3 is connected to the Y-axis module 5-4 through a connecting plate 5-7. The lower end of the Z-axis module 5-3 is connected to the suction seat 5-5. A substrate information scanning mechanism 5-2 is provided on one side of the suction seat 5-5. A material identification mechanism 5-1 is provided on one side of the Z-axis module 5-3.

[0030] As Figure 7As shown in the figure, the transfer track module 6 includes a transfer track 6-1, a belt driven mechanism 6-3, a belt drive mechanism 6-2, and a pusher mechanism 6-4. A number of transfer tracks 6-1 are provided at the upper end of the workbench 8. Belt driven mechanisms 6-3 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the transfer track 6-1. A belt 6-6 is sleeved on the belt driven mechanisms 6-3 on the front and rear sides. One side of the belt 6-6 is connected to the belt drive mechanism 6-2, and the other side of the belt 6-6 is connected to the pusher mechanism 6-4. One end of the pusher mechanism 6-4 is connected to the transfer track 6-1.

[0031] When the full-automatic substrate dispensing equipment is used in this embodiment, first, the product batch card, the substrate to be processed, and the magazine 3-4 are provided to the workbench 8. The magazine 3-4 with bar code information is placed on the loading platform 2-1 of the loading and unloading platform 2. The loading drive motor 2-2 operates to pull the magazine towards the magazine transfer module 3 until the end sensor of the loading and unloading platform 2 sends a signal that the magazine is full, and the loading drive motor 2-2 stops operating. Then, the linear module 1-1 of the material module 1 operates to pull the substrate bin 1-4 to the filling position, load the substrate to be processed. After loading, the linear module 1-1 operates to return the flow channel of the ejected substrate bin 1-4 to the position waiting for processing. Next, the Y-axis module 3-2 and the Z-axis module 3-1 of the magazine transfer module 3 operate to drive the magazine clamping mechanism 3-3 into the loading platform 2-1 of the loading and unloading platform 2. The loading drive motor 2-2 operates to drive the magazine 3-4 to move into the magazine clamping mechanism 3-3. Then, the magazine clamping mechanism 3-3 operates to clamp the magazine 3-4, and the Y-axis module 3-2 and the Z-axis module 3-1 operate to transport the magazine 3-4 into the magazine bearing platform 4-2 of the magazine clamping module 4. Next, the Y-axis module 5-4 of the suction module 5 operates to one of the substrate positions of the material module 1. The material identification mechanism 5-1 identifies whether the substrate bin 1-4 contains a substrate or a separator paper. If the material identification mechanism 5-2 identifies the material as separator paper, the suction seat 5-5 works to suck up the separator paper and, under the action of the Y-axis module 5-4, transports the separator paper to the separator paper recycling bin 7 for discarding. If it is a substrate, the Z-axis module 5-3 descends, and the substrate information scanning mechanism 5-2 works to scan the substrate identity information and return it to the system for information comparison. If the information is correct, the suction seat 5-5 operates to suck up the substrate and transport it to the belt 6-6 of the transfer track module 6. If the information is incorrect, an alarm is prompted. The belt 6-6 drives the substrate to be transported to the corresponding magazine clamping module 4. When it reaches the end of the track, the track terminal code scanning mechanism scans the substrate information again and binds it to the magazine. The pusher mechanism 6-4 operates to push the substrate into the magazine 3-4. After the substrate is transferred to the first layer of the magazine 3-4 in the magazine bearing platform 4-2, the lifting motor 4-1 operates to lift the magazine 3-4 to the upper layer position of the magazine 3-4. Repeat the above steps until the magazine 3-4 is full. When the magazine 3-4 is full, the lifting motor 4-1 returns to the initial position, and the magazine transfer module 3 operates to transport the completed magazine 3-4 to the unloading platform 2-3 of the loading and unloading platform 2. The unloading drive motor 2-2 operates to drive the magazine to move to the discharge port position. At this time, the substrate information, the magazine information, and the batch card information have been bound, and the batch has been changed from the master batch to the sub-batch. The staff can find the batch card according to the sub-batch magazine number displayed on the equipment screen, and after correspondence, place the sub-batch on the trolley and wait to be transported to the next operation station.

[0032] During actual use, a dust removal mechanism and an ion dissipator can be arranged on one side of the transfer track of the transfer track module 6 to play the roles of dust removal and static elimination.

[0033] During actual use, the structure of the loading and unloading platform 2 is determined according to the structure of the cartridge 3-4, and the structure of the cartridge 3-4 is matched with the structure of the substrate.

[0034] Before loading the substrate and the cartridge, the operator uses a barcode scanner outside the machine to scan the batch number, the substrate packaging batch number, and the part number, and compares whether the prepared substrate is consistent with the substrate model marked on the batch card, that is, anti-misoperation comparison. If they are inconsistent, an alarm will be prompted. If they are consistent, the linear module 1-1 of the material module 1 will act to pull the substrate bin 1-4 to the manual filling position. As Figure 1 shown, in this embodiment, 6 substrate bins are designed according to the actual production capacity requirements. The operator puts the substrate into the popped-up substrate bin 1-4. After loading is completed, the linear module 1-1 acts to return the flow channel of the popped-up substrate bin to the position waiting for operation.
