Solution Overview
Problem
In the additive manufacturing of circuit boards, heat generation during various manufacturing steps leads to thermal stress, necessitating a reduction in the number of heating steps to protect the board.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for manufacturing circuit boards that involve laminating and shaping the board on a peeling member, attaching a metal paste to the wiring, arranging electronic components, and using a heating press to collectively heat the peeling member and metal paste while pressing the board to correct warpage, thereby reducing the number of heating steps.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple heating steps are used in additive manufacturing of circuit boards, then the peeling member can be released and metal paste can be cured, but thermal stress accumulates and damages the circuit board
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the heating of the peeling member and the curing of metal paste into a single heating step. The heating device simultaneously performs both functions by heating the circuit board to a temperature that enables peeling member release while also curing the metal paste, thereby reducing thermal stress accumulation and improving circuit board quality
Solution Approach 2:
The patent optimizes the heating temperature and time parameters to achieve both peeling member release and metal paste curing in one step. By carefully controlling the heating parameters within a specific range, the process ensures that the peeling member can be released while the metal paste is properly cured, resolving the contradiction between reliability and thermal stress
2Reliability
If multiple heating steps are performed, then complete curing and release can be achieved, but production efficiency decreases due to increased process time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple heating steps into a single heating operation that simultaneously achieves peeling member release and metal paste curing. This consolidation reduces the total process time while ensuring complete curing through optimized heating parameters, thereby improving production efficiency without sacrificing reliability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements continuous heating throughout the process, maintaining optimal temperature to simultaneously achieve peeling member release and metal paste curing without interruption. This continuous useful action eliminates idle time between separate heating steps, enhancing productivity while ensuring complete curing
