Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PCB / FPC board production lamination technology, specifically, to a water-soluble lamination equipment for circuit boards with built-in cooling function. Background Technology
[0002] Based on the trend of PCB / FPC products towards miniaturization and high integration, highly integrated and dense circuitry is required per unit area to meet design requirements. Circuitry is becoming increasingly dense, with smaller spacing and pads, necessitating multi-layer circuitry. This requires multiple electroplating and lamination processes. The more complex the process, the greater the probability of board surface dents and scratches. These dents and scratches directly impact the quality defect rate of open circuits and gaps. During the circuit pattern transfer process, lamination is a crucial step. Traditional lamination methods often result in gaps at dent and scratch locations, leading to open circuits and gaps during subsequent etching. Currently, wet lamination processes suffer from unstable water supply and PU-made coating wheels, resulting in poor coating performance. Furthermore, the coating wheels are prone to cracking and hardening, failing to achieve optimal dry film filling at dent and scratch locations. Additionally, current methods lack front-end cooling devices, leading to excessively high board temperatures and the formation of lamination air bubbles, causing gaps and resulting in open circuits and gaps.
[0003] There are currently no effective solutions to the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

The air passing through the low-temperature cooling pipes 4 generates cold air, which is then blown onto the PCB / FPC board processed by the pre-processing machine 1. This provides uniform and efficient cooling to the PCB / FPC board, reducing defects such as air bubbles caused by excessively high temperatures before lamination, and preventing open circuits and gaps after etching, thus improving yield. Simultaneously, the coating wheel 11 is encased in a coating sleeve 19 made of EVA material to ensure the coating wheel 11 remains moist and does not condense. It is hard and does not deform, further improving the efficiency of water coating and film pressing. At the same time, this device uses a pressure-stabilizing water supply machine 8 to ensure stable and balanced water supply, which further improves the stability of water coating and further improves work efficiency. Meanwhile, the roller shafts 20 at both ends of the water coating roller have slots 21. One end of the drive shaft connected to the roller shaft 20 has a locking block.
