Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sheet adhesive tape application equipment, specifically to an adhesive application mechanism and adhesive application device. Background Technology

[0002] In automated adhesive application processes, traditional labeling heads typically employ a continuous suction surface with multiple evenly spaced suction holes to hold the adhesive tape in place. However, this inherent limitation is particularly pronounced in dynamic application scenarios. The dynamic application process involves: the vacuum suction structure adsorbing the adhesive tape and pressing it firmly onto the component; then, the vacuum suction structure moves, causing the adhesive tape to gradually detach from the structure and adhere to the component.

[0003] However, during the dynamic application process, as the adhesive tape gradually detaches from the vacuum adsorption structure, some adsorption pores are exposed, causing a sudden drop in the vacuum level of the vacuum adsorption structure. This results in a significant decrease in the adsorption force in localized areas or even the entire adsorption surface. Reduced adsorption force easily leads to problems such as adhesive tape falling off, wrinkling, and slippage, making it difficult to ensure the flatness of the applied adhesive tape. This severely affects the bonding effect between the adhesive tape and the workpiece, reducing the yield rate. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an adhesive application mechanism and adhesive application device to solve the problem that the vacuum adsorption structure of the traditional labeling head is not reasonably designed, making it difficult to ensure the flatness of the adhesive application and reducing the yield.

[0005] In a first aspect, this utility model provides an adhesive applicator for applying adhesive tape to components, including an applicator head; the applicator head includes an adsorption element, the adsorption element having a plurality of adsorption portions spaced apart along the application direction of the adhesive tape; the adsorption portions have vent holes and vacuum adsorption holes, the vent holes being connected to the vacuum adsorption holes; the vent holes being connected to a vacuum mechanism, and the vacuum adsorption holes of the plurality of adsorption portions being located on the same plane.

[0006] In one optional embodiment, the adsorption element includes an upper plate and a lower plate, which are connected to form a plurality of adsorption sections; ventilation holes are provided on the upper plate and vacuum adsorption holes are provided on the lower plate.

[0007] In one alternative embodiment, the adsorption section is formed with a groove that connects the vent hole and the vacuum adsorption hole.

[0008] In one alternative embodiment, multiple grooves of multiple adsorption portions are spaced apart on the upper plate portion.

[0009] In one optional embodiment, the labeling head includes: a first connector connected above the upper plate; a roller connected to the first connector; and the roller is located at the front end of the adsorption member along the adhesive tape application direction.

[0010] In one optional embodiment, the adhesive application mechanism includes: a first rotating connector and a second rotating connector, the first rotating connector and the second rotating connector being connected above the first connector and spaced apart along the adhesive application direction; a second connector, rotatably connected to the first of the first rotating connector and the second rotating connector; a telescopic drive member, disposed on the second connector; and the drive end of the telescopic drive member being rotatably connected to the second of the first rotating connector and the second rotating connector.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the rolling element includes a roller portion; in the application direction perpendicular to the adhesive tape, the size of the lower plate portion is less than or equal to the size of the roller portion.

[0012] In one alternative embodiment, the adhesive applicator further includes a rotary drive, the drive end of which is connected to the label applicator head and is used to drive the label applicator head to rotate in the horizontal plane.

[0013] Secondly, this utility model also provides an adhesive applicator, comprising: the aforementioned adhesive applicator mechanism; a linear drive mechanism connected to the adhesive applicator mechanism; and, when the labeling head presses the adhesive paper onto the component, the linear drive mechanism drives the adhesive applicator mechanism to move along the adhesive paper application direction.

[0015] Utilizing the technical solution of this utility model, multiple adsorption sections are spaced apart along the adhesion direction of the adhesive tape. Each adsorption section is equipped with a vent hole and a vacuum adsorption hole, meaning that each adsorption section is relatively independent and does not affect the others. During dynamic adhesion, the adhesive tape detaches from each adsorption section sequentially. Along the adhesion direction of the adhesive tape, when the vacuum adsorption hole of the leading adsorption section is exposed, it does not affect the vacuum degree of the subsequent adsorption sections, ensuring the adsorption force of the subsequent adsorption sections. Compared with traditional labeling heads, the labeling head of this application adopts a vacuum segmented structure for the adsorption component, which can ensure the reliability of the adhesive tape fixation throughout the entire dynamic adhesion process, avoiding problems such as adhesive tape falling off, wrinkling, and slipping.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0035] The following is combined Figures 1 to 5 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0036] According to an embodiment of this utility model, in one aspect, an adhesive applicator 1 is provided for applying adhesive tape 4 to a component 5. For example... Figures 2-5 As shown, the adhesive applicator 1 includes an applicator head 11, which includes an adsorption member 111 for picking up and fixing the adhesive tape 4. Specifically, the adsorption member 111 has a plurality of adsorption portions 1111 spaced apart along the application direction of the adhesive tape 4. The adsorption portion 1111 has a vent hole 1114 and a vacuum adsorption hole 1115, with the vent hole 1114 communicating with the vacuum adsorption hole 1115. The vent hole 1114 is used to communicate with a vacuum mechanism, and the vacuum adsorption hole 1115 is used to fix the adhesive tape 4. The vacuum adsorption holes 1115 of the plurality of adsorption portions 1111 are located on the same plane, which is also the adsorption surface used to adsorb and fix the adhesive tape 4.

[0037] Among them, the direction in which the adhesive tape 4 is applied is also... Figures 2-5 The X direction in, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the adhesive tape 4 is applied, the labeling head 11 presses the adhesive tape 4 firmly onto the surface of the component 5; then, the labeling head 11 moves along the X direction, and the adhesive tape 4 gradually detaches from the adsorption member 111 and is pasted onto the component 5.

[0038] Understandably, the vacuum mechanism evacuates each adsorption part 1111 through the vent 1114. Under negative pressure, each vacuum adsorption hole 1115 adsorbs and fixes the adhesive paper 4 to the adsorption surface. The multiple adsorption parts 1111 are spaced apart, and each adsorption part 1111 is equipped with both a vent 1114 and a vacuum adsorption hole 1115, meaning each adsorption part 1111 is relatively independent and does not affect the others. During dynamic application, the adhesive paper 4 detaches from each adsorption part 1111 sequentially. Along the application direction of the adhesive paper 4, when the vacuum adsorption hole 1115 of the leading adsorption part 1111 is exposed, it does not affect the vacuum level of the subsequent adsorption parts 1111, ensuring the adsorption force of the subsequent adsorption parts 1111. Compared to traditional labeling heads 11, the labeling head 11 of this application employs a vacuum segmented structure for the adsorption element 111. This ensures the reliability of the adhesive tape 4's fixation throughout the entire dynamic application process, preventing issues such as adhesive tape 4 falling off, wrinkling, or slipping. This, in turn, guarantees the flatness of the adhesive tape 4 during dynamic application, improving the application effect and increasing the yield. The advantages of the labeling head 11 are particularly evident when the adhesive tape 4 has a large dimension in the application direction.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, vacuum adsorption holes 1115 are disposed at the bottom of adsorption part 1111, and each adsorption part 1111 can be provided with multiple vacuum adsorption holes 1115. The multiple vacuum adsorption holes 1115 of each adsorption part 1111 can be arranged uniformly, gradually, or irregularly, preferably uniformly.

[0040] Furthermore, the vent 1114 can be located on the top of the adsorption section 1111 or on the side of the adsorption section 1111, preferably on the side of the adsorption section 1111, to facilitate the arrangement of other structures. Each adsorption section 1111 can be provided with one, two, three or more vents 1114, as long as they can communicate with the vacuum adsorption hole 1115 to realize the vacuum adsorption function.

[0041] For example, in the application direction perpendicular to the adhesive tape 4, that is Figures 2-5 In the Y direction, ventilation holes 1114 are provided on both sides of the adsorption part 1111. In the height direction Z, which is perpendicular to both the X and Y directions, a plurality of vacuum adsorption holes 1115 are uniformly provided at the bottom of the adsorption part 1111, and the plurality of vacuum adsorption holes 1115 are arranged in an array.

[0042] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the adsorption member 111 includes an upper plate portion 1112 and a lower plate portion 1113, with the upper plate portion 1112 and the lower plate portion 1113 connected to form a plurality of adsorption portions 1111. It is understood that the upper plate portion 1112 and the lower plate portion 1113 are sequentially arranged and connected in the height direction Z. A vent 1114 is provided on the upper plate portion 1112, and a vacuum adsorption hole 1115 is provided on the lower plate portion 1113. In this embodiment, the adsorption member 111 is formed by connecting the upper plate portion 1112 and the lower plate portion 1113 into an integral structure, and the plurality of adsorption portions 1111 are formed on this integral structure. This arrangement facilitates ensuring that the vacuum adsorption holes 1115 of each adsorption portion 1111 are on the same plane, ensuring the flatness of the adhesive paper 4.

[0043] For example, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, both the upper plate portion 1112 and the lower plate portion 1113 have a plate-like structure. Exemplarily, the adsorption member 111 also includes a first connecting member 112. In the height direction Z, the upper plate portion 1112 is located above the lower plate portion 1113, and the first connecting member 112 is connected to the upper plate portion 1112.

[0044] For example, along the height direction Z, the vacuum adsorption holes 1115 of each adsorption part 1111 are all provided through the lower plate part 1113, that is, the vacuum adsorption holes 1115 of each adsorption part 1111 are all connected to the bottom surface of the lower plate part 1113. The bottom surface of the lower plate part 1113 is also the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 111, and this bottom surface is a plane.

[0045] For example, the upper plate portion 1112 and the lower plate portion 1113 can be integrally formed to ensure the airtightness of the adsorption portion 1111.

[0046] For example, in the attachment direction perpendicular to the adhesive tape 4, that is, in the Y direction, the two sides of the upper plate portion 1112 may protrude from the lower plate portion 1113, and the protruding portions on both sides of the upper plate portion 1112 are connected to the first connector 112 mentioned above.

[0047] For example, at least one end of the upper plate portion 1112 may protrude from the lower plate portion 1113 along the adhesion direction of the adhesive tape 4, i.e., the X direction, and the protruding portion of at least one end of the upper plate portion 1112 is connected to the first connecting member 112. Specifically, the adsorption member 111 has a front end and a rear end opposite to each other along the adhesion direction of the adhesive tape 4, and the adhesion surface of the element 5 has an adhesion start point and an adhesion end point, where the front end refers to the end near the adhesion start point and the rear end refers to the end near the adhesion end point. Preferably, the front end of the upper plate portion 1112 may be flush with the lower plate portion 1113, and the rear end of the upper plate portion 1112 may protrude from the lower plate portion 1113.

[0048] For example, the upper plate portion 1112 and the first connector 112 can be connected by fasteners such as bolts, or by means of snap-fit ​​or other methods.

[0049] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the adsorption section 1111 is formed with a groove 1116, which connects the vent hole 1114 and the vacuum adsorption hole 1115. Understandably, the groove 1116 is also the airflow channel for each adsorption section 1111. Using the groove 1116 as an airflow channel can evenly distribute the air pressure, enhance the uniformity of adsorption, and thus ensure the flatness of the adhesive paper 4. Moreover, the airflow channel formed by the groove 1116 reduces the resistance of the airflow path, allowing negative pressure to be quickly transferred to the adsorption surface, shortening the response cycle of the adsorption element 111, and improving the adsorption efficiency.

[0050] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the multiple grooves 1116 of the multiple adsorption portions 1111 are spaced apart on the upper plate portion 1112 along the adhesion direction of the adhesive paper 4, resulting in a simple structure that is easy to manufacture. The lower plate portion 1113 is located below the upper plate portion 1112, forming the bottom wall of the groove 1116. The aforementioned vacuum adsorption holes 1115 are penetratingly disposed on the bottom wall of each groove 1116, and the aforementioned vent holes 1114 are penetratingly disposed on the side wall of each groove 1116. Exemplarily, the aforementioned first connecting member 112 has a plate-like structure, connecting to the upper plate portion 1112 and covering the opening of each groove 1116 to ensure the airtightness of each groove 1116 and prevent air leakage.

[0051] Furthermore, traditional labeling heads 11 typically only have a vacuum adsorption structure. The labeling process involves adsorbing the adhesive tape 4 and then directly pressing it down to apply the tape. During dynamic application, due to the large size of the adhesive tape 4 in the application direction, the concavity of the application surface of the component 5 (such as the seam between two components 5), and the deformation of the adhesive tape 4 caused by the adsorption holes of the vacuum adsorption structure, the adhesion effect of the adhesive tape 4 is poor. Especially near the seam between two components 5, the adhesive tape 4 will wrinkle, bubble, and peel after application, failing to meet the appearance standards and resulting in scrap.

[0052] To further improve the problems of wrinkling, bubbling, and peeling after the adhesive tape 4 is applied, in some embodiments, the labeling head 11 further includes a roller 113, which is connected to the first connector 112. Along the application direction of the adhesive tape 4, the roller 113 is located at the front end of the adsorption member 111. Understandably, this front end is also the end of the adsorption member 111 near the application starting point along the application direction of the adhesive tape 4. With this configuration, during dynamic application, the roller 113 can tightly press the adhesive tape 4 against the component 5, ensuring that the adhesive tape 4 completely adheres to the application surface of the component 5. This reduces deformation of the adhesive tape 4 caused by its own size, seams between components 5, adsorption holes, etc., ensuring the flatness of the adhesive application, reducing scrap, and improving the yield rate.

[0053] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the rolling element 113 includes a roller portion 1131 and a support portion 1132. The upper part of the support portion 1132 is connected to the first connecting element 112, such as by bolt connection, welding, snap-fit, etc. A rotating shaft is provided below the support portion 1132, and the roller portion 1131 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. Exemplarily, the roller portion 1131 can be made of soft rubber, or the outer side of the roller portion 1131 can be provided with a rubber coating layer, which is made of soft rubber, to avoid damaging the adhesive paper 4 and the component 5. Exemplarily, the Shore hardness of the roller portion 1131 or the rubber coating layer can be 35-40 degrees. Exemplarily, the thickness of the rubber coating layer can be 2-5mm, for example, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, etc.

[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adhesive applicator 1 also includes a first rotating connector 12, a second rotating connector 13, a second connector 14, and a telescopic drive 15. The first rotating connector 12 and the second rotating connector 13 are connected above the first connector 112 and are spaced apart along the application direction of the adhesive tape 4. The second connector 14 is rotatably connected to the first of the first rotating connector 12 and the first of the second rotating connector 13. The telescopic drive 15 is disposed on the second connector 14, and its driving end is rotatably connected to the second of the first rotating connector 12 and the second of the second rotating connector 13. With this configuration, when the telescopic drive 15 extends or retracts, it can drive the first connector 112 to rotate around the rotation axis of the first of the first rotating connector 12 and the first of the second rotating connector 13, allowing the label applicator head 11 to switch between a horizontal and an inclined state.

[0055] in, Figure 2 This diagram shows the structure of the labeling head 11 when it is tilted. Figure 3A schematic diagram of the labeling head 11 in a horizontal state is shown. When the labeling head 11 is in a horizontal state, the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 111, that is, the bottom surface of the lower plate 1113, is horizontal. At this time, the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 111 can adhere to the adhesive tape 4, completing the picking action of the adhesive tape 4. When the labeling head 11 is in an inclined state, the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 111, that is, the bottom surface of the lower plate 1113, is oblique. At this time, the rolling member 113 is closer to the element 5 than the adsorption member 111, increasing the pressing force of the rolling member 113 to ensure the pressing effect.

[0056] For example, the first rotating connector 12 is located near the rear end of the adsorption member 111, and the second rotating connector 13 is located near the front end of the adsorption member 111. The second connector 14 is rotatably connected to the first rotating connector 12, and the telescopic drive member 15 is connected to the second rotating connector 13. When the telescopic drive member 15 extends, it presses down on the end of the labeling head 11 near the application point, that is, the front end of the adsorption member 111, and the labeling head 11 changes from a horizontal state to an inclined state. When the telescopic drive member 15 retracts, it lifts up the end of the labeling head 11 near the application point, that is, the front end of the adsorption member 111, and the labeling head 11 changes from an inclined state to a horizontal state.

[0057] For example, the telescopic drive member 15 can be a cylinder, an electric telescopic rod, etc., preferably a cylinder. For example, the first rotating connector 12 can be a bearing seat, and the second rotating connector 13 can include a bearing seat and a connecting rod. The bearing seat of the second rotating connector 13 is fixedly connected to the first connector 112, and the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the bearing seat and connected to the drive end of the telescopic drive member 15.

[0058] Furthermore, in some embodiments, in the application direction perpendicular to the adhesive tape 4, i.e., the Y direction, the size of the lower plate portion 1113 is less than or equal to the size of the roller portion 1131. Understandably, the bottom surface of the lower plate portion 1113 is the adsorption surface, and the size of the adsorption surface in the Y direction is typically close to the size of the adhesive tape 4 to facilitate accurate pickup of the adhesive tape 4. In the Y direction, the size of the roller is set larger than the size of the lower plate portion 1113 to ensure that the roller portion 1131 can completely cover the adhesive tape 4 in the Y direction, ensuring that the adhesive tape 4 is evenly stressed during rolling and preventing wrinkles or partial peeling of the adhesive tape 4.

[0059] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the adhesive applicator 1 further includes a rotary drive 16, the drive end of which is connected to the label applicator 11 and is used to drive the label applicator 11 to rotate in the horizontal plane, so that the label applicator 11 can rotate between the label dispensing mechanism 3 of the adhesive paper 4 and the carrier mechanism of the component 5, which is conducive to the automated control of the applicator process.

[0060] The drive end of the rotary drive component 16 can be directly connected to the labeling head 11 or indirectly connected.

[0061] For example, the driving end of the rotary drive 16 can be indirectly connected to the labeling head 11 through the second connector 14, that is, the driving end of the rotary drive 16 is connected to the second connector 14, and the labeling head 11 is disposed on the second connector 14. For example, the rotary drive 16 can be a rotary platform, a rotary motor, etc.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect also provides an adhesive applicator, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the adhesive applicator includes the aforementioned adhesive applicator 1 and a linear drive mechanism 2, which is connected to the adhesive applicator 1. When the labeling head 11 presses the adhesive tape 4 onto the component 5, the linear drive mechanism 2 drives the adhesive applicator 1 to move along the adhesive tape 4 application direction, thereby attaching the adhesive tape 4 onto the component 5.

[0063] The adhesive applicator of this invention utilizes the aforementioned adhesive applicator mechanism 1, whose adsorption element 111 adopts a vacuum segmented structure. This ensures the reliability of the adhesive tape 4's fixation throughout the entire dynamic application process, preventing problems such as adhesive tape 4 falling off, wrinkling, or slipping. This, in turn, guarantees the flatness of the adhesive tape 4 during dynamic application, improves the application effect, and increases the yield. Furthermore, the adhesive applicator of this invention uses a linear drive mechanism 2 to drive the adhesive applicator mechanism 1, facilitating precise control of the adhesive tape 4's application position and ensuring application accuracy.

[0064] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the linear drive mechanism 2 may include an X-direction drive structure 21 and a third connector 23. The drive end of the X-direction drive structure 21 is directly or indirectly connected to the third connector 23. The third connector 23 is connected to the adhesive applicator 1, specifically to the rotary drive component 16 of the adhesive applicator. The linear drive mechanism 2 drives the adhesive applicator 1 to reciprocate in the adhesive application direction of the adhesive paper 4, i.e., the X direction, via the third connector 23. Exemplarily, the X-direction drive structure 21 may include an X-direction guide rail, an X-direction slider, and a first motor. The X-direction slider is slidably connected to the X-direction guide rail, and the third connector 23 is directly or indirectly connected to the X-direction slider. The drive end of the first motor is connected to the X-direction guide rail to drive the X-slider to reciprocate in the X direction via the X-direction guide rail. Exemplarily, the X-direction drive structure 21 may also be a linear motor extending in the X direction, or other drive structures capable of X-direction movement.

[0065] For example, the linear drive mechanism 2 may include a Z-axis drive structure 22, which is disposed on the drive end of the X-axis drive structure 21, specifically on the X-axis slider; the drive end of the Z-axis drive structure 22 is connected to the third connector 23. That is, the drive end of the X-axis drive structure 21 and the third connector 23 are indirectly connected through the Z-axis drive structure 22. The Z-axis drive structure 22 is configured to drive the adhesive applicator 1 to reciprocate in the height direction Z via the third connector 23, so as to adsorb and apply the adhesive paper 4. For example, the Z-axis drive structure 22 may include a Z-axis guide rail, a Z-axis slider, and a second motor. The Z-axis slider is slidably connected to the Z-axis guide rail, and the third connector 23 is connected to the Z-axis slider. The drive end of the second motor is connected to the Z-axis guide rail to drive the Z-axis slider to reciprocate in the direction Z via the Z-axis guide rail. For example, the Z-axis drive structure 22 may also be a linear motor extending in the Z direction, or other drive structures capable of Z-axis movement.

[0066] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the adhesive applicator also includes a dispensing mechanism 3, which supplies adhesive tape 4. Specifically, the dispensing mechanism 3 may include a dispensing feeder, which conveys the adhesive tape 4 to a designated position and peels off the adhesive tape 4 so that the adhesive applicator 1 can accurately adsorb and fix the adhesive tape 4.

[0067] In the direction perpendicular to the adhesive tape 4, i.e. the Y direction, the linear drive mechanism 2 and the label dispensing mechanism 3 are spaced apart to make the adhesive application device compact and save space costs.

[0068] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the adhesive applicator further includes a carrier mechanism for fixing the element 5, the carrier mechanism being used to position the element 5.

[0069] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the adhesive applicator also includes the aforementioned vacuum mechanism, which is connected to the vent 1114 of the adsorption member 111 to provide a vacuum environment for each adsorption part 1111.

[0070] The application process of the adhesive applicator of this utility model is as follows:

[0071] The delivery feeder conveys the adhesive tape 4 to the first designated position, and the carrier mechanism positions the component 5 to the second designated position;

[0072] The linear drive mechanism 2 controls the adhesive applicator 1 to move to the first designated position, and the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 111 is in contact with the adhesive paper 4; at this time, the telescopic drive member 15 retracts, and the labeling head 11 is in a horizontal state.

[0073] After the vacuum mechanism is activated and the bid feeder completes the bid dispensing action, the adsorption component 111 adsorbs and fixes the adhesive paper 4, thus completing the picking action of the adhesive paper 4.

[0074] After picking up the adhesive tape 4, the linear drive mechanism 2 controls the adhesive applicator 1 to move above the second designated position, and the telescopic drive component 15 extends, so that the labeling head 11 is in an inclined state.

[0075] The linear drive mechanism 2 controls the adhesive applicator 1 to descend, so that the roller part 1131 presses the end of the adhesive paper 4 against the attachment surface of the component 5.

[0076] The linear drive mechanism 2 controls the adhesive applicator 1 to move along the X direction until the adhesive tape 4 is completely attached to the application surface, thus completing the application of the adhesive tape 4.

[0077] It should be noted that the adhesive tape 4 of this utility model can be sheet adhesive tape such as fixing adhesive, trademark, tail adhesive, insulating adhesive, etc.; the component 5 can be any workpiece that needs to be glued, for example, the component 5 can be a soft-pack battery cell.

[0078] The adhesive applicator 1 and the adsorption component 111 of this invention adopt a vacuum segmented structure, and together with the rolling component 113, can ensure the flatness of the adhesive application and avoid appearance quality problems such as wrinkles, bubbles, and peeling. It is suitable for the application of thin sheet adhesive tapes such as fixing tapes for various aluminum-plastic film soft-pack batteries and trademarks, and can significantly improve the yield.

[0079] Actual production verification shows that the first-pass yield of this adhesive applicator is ≥99.5%, the utilization rate is ≥95% (excluding the influence of material and material change factors), and the production capacity UPH is ≥900 PCS. First-pass yield (FPY) is an indicator of production quality, representing the proportion of qualified products that do not require rework or repair in the first production process. Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is a comprehensive indicator of equipment efficiency, taking into account availability, performance, and quality. Production capacity UPH (Units Per Hour) is the number of units produced per hour.
