In addition, master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 7) and sub-control portion 10 (with reference to Fig. 8) jointly constitute via external interface 9b, 10b each other, advance cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1 (with reference to Fig. 7), applicator head with linear motor to advance head armature coil 5a2~5d2 (with reference to Fig. 7), Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1 (with reference to Fig. 8) with linear motor to unite transmission driving signal to support.Thus, based on the data of importing and be stored in the RAM of microcomputer 9a (with reference to Fig. 7) in advance from keyboard 12 (with reference to Fig. 1), make applicator head 5A~5D and move at each direction of principal axis of X, Y with respect to the substrate 8 (with reference to Fig. 1) that is placed on the substrate holding tray 6 (with reference to Fig. 1).
In addition, on applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1), make the nozzle 5A8~5D8 (with reference to Fig. 6 (a)) that is supported via Z axle workbench 5A3~5D3 move distance arbitrarily in Z-direction, in it moves, by the air pressure (malleation) after adjuster 17 adjustings, put on slurry admission extinguisher 5A5~5D5 continuously according to the data the RAM that imports and be stored in microcomputer 9a (with reference to Fig. 7) from keyboard 12 (with reference to Fig. 1) via valve cell 20.
Then, spray slurry continuously, on substrate 8, depict the paste patterns that requires shape from ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of these nozzles 5A8~5D8.
In this slurry coating, as described later, motor controller 9d (with reference to Fig. 7) by master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 7), often monitor the cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1 of each linear motor, the position of head armature coil 5a2~5d2 (with reference to Fig. 7) whether the interference range that presets (plural applicator head mutually too near and distance range between the applicator head that might bump) in, even when having imported wrong driving signal, also can coating be handled and stop, so that each applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) does not bump by this supervisory programme.
The mobile support of movable part 4A~4D (with reference to Fig. 1) is advanced with the following formation of linear motor: it is fixed part 3A, 3B (with reference to Fig. 4 (a)) that the magnet 3a1 of pallet portion, 3b1 (with reference to Fig. 4 (a)) are configured in fixation side, and cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1 (with reference to Fig. 4 (a)) is arranged on becomes the movable part of movable side 4A~4D.
In addition, the mobile applicator head of applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) is advanced with the following formation of linear motor: it is support 2A, 2B (with reference to Fig. 5 (a)) that cradle portion magnet 2a1,2b1 (with reference to Fig. 5 (a)) are arranged on fixation side, and head armature coil 5a2~5d2 (with reference to Fig. 5 (a)) is arranged on the applicator head 5A~5D that becomes movable side.
According to this formation, the generation of the error that the thermal expansion that can suppress to take place in the driving of existing ball-screw causes, only otherwise send rub-out signal to cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1, the head armature coil 5a2~5d2 of movable side, just can reduce the axial site error of XY, can carry out the correct Position Control of each applicator head 5A~5D.
In addition, the formation of the slurry coating machine 100 (with reference to Fig. 1) that constitutes like this is simple and generation dust is few.And, because the magnet 3a1 of pallet portion of fixation side, always act on attractive between the cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1 (with reference to Fig. 4 (a)) of 3b1 (with reference to Fig. 4 (a)) and movable side, so, support 2A, the form that 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) draws to pallet 1 (with reference to Fig. 1) side draught for quilt, can not vibrate when mobile, as long as the last interarea 8a (with reference to Fig. 6 (a)) of substrate 8 does not go up and rises and falls, just hardly can change from the last interarea 8a of substrate 8 to the vertical range Δ Z (gap) of ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 (with reference to Fig. 6 (b)) of nozzle 5A8~5D8 (with reference to Fig. 6 (b)) of each applicator head 5A~5D.
Fig. 9 (a) is the figure that is illustrated in a concrete example of the paste patterns of describing on the substrate that is positioned on the slurry coating machine, and PTa~PTd is a paste patterns, and Sa~Sd is the coating starting position of paste patterns PTa~PTd.
Concrete example shown in Fig. 9 (a) is to utilize four applicator head 5A~5D shown in Figure 1 to describe the example of four paste patterns PTa~PTd on substrate 8.
In addition, the paste patterns PTa shown in Fig. 9 (a) is the pattern that applicator head 5A describes, and paste patterns PTb is the pattern that applicator head 5B describes, and paste patterns PTc is the pattern that applicator head 5C describes, and paste patterns PTd is the pattern that applicator head 5D describes.
These paste patterns PTa~PTd is identical shaped (for example rectangle), set as pattern data to the two dimensional path data of end position from coating starting position Sa~Sd separately, the coating starting position Sa of paste patterns PTa, center O with substrate 8 is an initial point, set positions be coordinate (X1, Y1); The coating starting position Sb of paste patterns PTb, in the same manner set positions be coordinate (X2, Y2); The coating starting position Sc of paste patterns PTc, in the same manner set positions be coordinate (X3, Y3); The coating starting position Sd of paste patterns PTd, in the same manner set positions be coordinate (X4, Y4).
At this, the responsiveness during to the paste patterns Pta shown in slurry coating machine 100 (with reference to Fig. 1) depiction 9 (a)~PTd describes.
As mentioned above, movable part 4A~the 4D (with reference to Fig. 1) of slurry coating machine 100 and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) move by the driving of linear motor together, with the driving by ball-screw shown in the above-mentioned patent documentation 1 the first-class mobile formation of coating is compared, can be improved responsiveness (translational speed).
For example, for by the mobile formation of ball-screw the time, the responsiveness of support and applicator head is 100~300mm/s, but during for the mobile slurry coating machine 100 (with reference to Fig. 1) of the driving by linear motor, can be in range regulation support 2A, the 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) of 20~500mm/s and the responsiveness of applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1).
Thereby, during the paste patterns PTa of the rectangle shown in the depiction 9 (a) on substrate 8~PTd, master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 1) is controlled to be support 2A, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1): straight line portion is with the high-speed mobile of 300mm/s, and corner part moves with the low speed of 100mm/s.
Like this, the responsiveness of support 2A, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) is controlled to be low speed at corner part, thus can be at corner part coating coating slurry reliably, for example, it is constant can making the live width of paste patterns PTa~PTd in all parts.
In addition, in order to ensure the applying intensity of substrate 8, shown in chain-dotted line among Fig. 9 (b), coating coating slurry and describe false pattern (false sealing) on interarea 8a on the substrate 8 sometimes.
For example, around paste patterns PTa~PTd, describe the vacation sealing DMYa~DMYd of rectangle sometimes, or describe linear vacation sealing DMYx, the DMYy of X-direction and Y direction at the center on each limit of substrate 8.
This false sealing DMYa~DMYd, DMYx, DMYy do not require precision to live width and linearity, so, for example in the slurry coating machine 100 (with reference to Fig. 1) of present embodiment, support 2A, 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) are moved with the maximum speed of 500mm/s and describe false sealing DMYa~DMYd, DMYx, DMYy.
Thereby, make the slurry coating machine 100 of the present embodiment that support 2A, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D move by linear motor, compare with the existing slurry coating machine that driving by ball-screw is moved support and applicator head, have an activity duration to shorten such excellent results.
In addition, as shown in figure 10, describe a plurality of (among Figure 10 being 4) small-sized paste patterns PTs1~PTs4 at the remaining area of the substrate 8 of having described paste patterns PTa~PTd sometimes.
In this case, for small-sized paste patterns PTs1~PTs4, support 2A, 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) are moved with low speed.
Make the slurry coating machine 100 of the present embodiment that support 2A, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D move by linear motor, with make by ball-screw the coating first-class mobile existing slurry coating machine compare, can regulate the responsiveness of support 2A, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D significantly, therefore, can on substrate 8, describe the paste patterns of various sizes.
Then, with reference to Figure 11 the operation of describing of the paste patterns PTa~PTd shown in the depiction 9 (a) on substrate 8 is described (suitably with reference to Fig. 1~Fig. 9).
On substrate 8, describe the action of paste patterns PTa~PTd, carry out by the 10 control support 2A of master control part 9 and sub-control portion, 2B and applicator head 5A~5D.
As shown in figure 11, at first, behind the power supply of connection slurry coating machine 100 (step S100), master control part 9 is carried out the initial setting (step S200) of slurry coating machine 100.
In this initial setting, master control part 9 drives servomotor 7a makes substrate holding tray 6 move along the rotation of θ direction, is positioned at the benchmark angle of regulation.In addition, master control part 9 moves movable part 4A~4D and applicator head 5A~5D by driving linear motor, make the ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 move to the origin position of the regulation of prior setting, and, carry out the setting of pattern data (two dimensional path data) from coating starting position Sa~Sd of paste patterns PTa~PTd to end position and location with mark, slurry coating height (for the gap of each applicator head 5A~5D) etc. from the last interarea 8a of substrate 8 to the ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of the front end of nozzle 5A8~5D8.
These data are for example via keyboard 12 input, and each is imported among the RAM that microcomputer 10a that data are stored in the microcomputer 9a of master control part 9 and sub-control portion 10 possesses.In addition, also can to store the external storage device that is kept at master control part 9, sub-control portion 10 be in the storage mediums such as hard disk 15,21 to the data of being imported.
In this case, data necessary for example can be read from hard disk 15,21 by master control part 9 and sub-control portion 10 when initial setting.
In addition, the origin position of ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 in the XY coordinate system of the front end of nozzle 5A8~5D8 of applicator head 5A~5D, as shown in figure 12, be set at the assigned position Ta~Td outside the substrate 8, even before the coating beginning,, can not pollute substrate 8 from the front end drippage nozzle slurry of nozzle 5A8~5D8 yet.
As mentioned above, the processing of initial setting finishes back (step S200), and then, master control part 9 is fixed on the substrate holding tray 6 substrate 8.That is, make substrate 8 be loaded into (step S300) on the substrate holding tray 6.
For example, master control part 9 drives aforesaid suction device (not shown), and substrate 8 is adsorbed on the substrate holding tray 6.
Then, master control part 9 is carried out the location (step S400) of substrate 8.In this is handled, master control part 9 makes the position that is in step S200 initial setting, and (applicator head 5A~5D of origin position Ta~Td) suitably moves, so that the location that image recognition video camera 5A6~5D6 can photograph the substrate 8 that is placed on the substrate holding tray 6 positions with the mode of mark.
Then, location that each image recognition video camera 5A6~5D6 the takes position of centre of gravity with mark is obtained in the computing of the image processing apparatus 9c by master control part 9, detects the inclination of the θ direction of substrate 8.
Then, master control part 9 makes substrate holding tray 6 drive in the rotation of θ direction of principal axis based on this testing result by servomotor 7a.Come the inclination of the θ direction of correction substrate 8 thus.In addition, the axial margin of error of XY (Δ X1, Δ Y1) can be proofreaied and correct when starting point described later moves.Therefore, the location is stored among the RAM that is kept at microcomputer 9a with the view data of mark.
Back (step S400) is finished in the location of substrate 8, and then, master control part 9 is carried out slurry coating (step S500).
The order of slurry coating mainly is described with reference to Figure 13, and promptly the details of the processing among the step S500 is (suitably with reference to Fig. 1~Fig. 9).
As shown in figure 13, master control part 9 confirms on the substrate 8 whether uncoated pattern (that is, the paste patterns that does not have to describe but also do not describe being arranged) (step S510) is arranged.About the confirmation method that has or not, will explain below at this said uncoated pattern.
Applying the zero hour, whole paste patterns that apply all is the uncoated pattern, therefore, and the processing (step S520) that move the coating starting position that master control part 9 is carried out back.This processing is to make applicator head 5A~5D position mobile processing in the following manner: applicator head 5A~5D is moved, from origin position Ta~Td shown in Figure 12, the ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of the front end of nozzle 5A8~5D8 of applicator head 5A~5D is relative with coating starting position Sa~Sd of paste patterns PTa~PTd.
Mainly illustrate that with reference to Figure 14 the details of this processing is (suitably with reference to Fig. 1~Fig. 9).
As shown in figure 14, master control part 9 confirms that (at this is that 4 paste patterns PTa~PTd) are identical shaped (step S521) for a plurality of paste patterns as rendered object, if identical shaped (step S521 → Yes), then be judged to be describable paste patterns enters next step.
On the other hand, (step S521 → No), 9 of master control part are not judged to be the paste patterns that can not unify to describe as rendered object, and processing is advanced to step S524 when not being identical shaped as the paste patterns of rendered object.The details of the processing of step S524 will be explained below.
For example, master control part 9 can judge whether whole paste patterns PTa~PTd is identical shaped based on the slurry data that are used to describe paste patterns PTa~PTd.
That is to say that master control part 9 is calculated the coating starting position of each paste patterns, the relative position relation of each corner part based on coordinate separately, thus, whether the whole paste patterns PTa~PTd of decidable is identical shaped.
It all is (step S521 → Yes), judge then whether all paste patterns PTa~PTd can describe (step S522) simultaneously can be according to the identical shaped paste patterns of describing the time that master control part 9 is judged to be paste patterns PTa~PTd.
Setting the decision condition that all paste patterns PTa~PTd can describe simultaneously is, coating starting position Sa, Sb are on the same X-axis, and coating starting position Sc, Sd are on the same X-axis, when X1=X2 and X3=X4 set up, then are the pattern that can describe simultaneously.
(step S522 → Yes), that is, when all paste patterns PTa~PTd can describe simultaneously, 9 of master control part advanced to step S523 with processing when X1=X2 and X3=X4 set up.
For example, coating starting position Sa~Sd according to two paste patterns (PTa and PTb, PTc and PTd) of two paste patterns (PTa and PTc, PTb and PTd) of X-direction adjacency and Y direction adjacency, the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is during with coating starting position Sa~Sd contraposition, and applicator head 5A~5D has contacted each other possibility (having the distance range of this possibility to be called interference range).Thereby master control part 9 applies starting position Sa~Sd and whether is in the affirmation of the interference range of nozzle (step S523).
Figure 15 is the figure of the interference range of explanation X-direction.
Among Figure 15, the paste patterns that describe is during for the paste patterns PTa shown in Fig. 9 (a)~PTd, for X-direction, in paste patterns PTa, PTb, substrate 8 (=the position of X2) leaving Y-axis becomes coating starting position Sa, Sb with distance X 1 in X-direction.In addition, in paste patterns PTc, PTd, substrate 8 (=the position of X4) leaving Y-axis becomes coating starting position Sc, Sd with distance X 3.During the coating beginning, the position of nozzle 5A8~5D8 of applicator head 5A~5D is set in these coatings starting position Sa~Sd.
At this, when setting interference range XC towards the X-direction of the O of substrate center from these coatings starting position Sa, Sb, Sc, Sd,
(X1-XC)-(X3+XC)>0
That is,
X1-X3-2XC>0
The time, applicator head 5C, the 5D of the applicator head 5A of support 2A, 5B and support 2B can not interfere with each other and move.
In addition, interference range XC is waited to determine by the size of the X-direction of applicator head 5A~5D.
Figure 16 is the figure of the interference range of explanation Y direction.
Among Figure 16, Y direction about the paste patterns PTa~PTd shown in Fig. 9 (a), in paste patterns PTa, the position of leaving X-axis with distance Y 1 of substrate 8 becomes coating starting position Sa, in paste patterns PTb, the position of leaving X-axis with distance Y 2 of substrate 8 becomes coating starting position Sb, in paste patterns PTc, the position of leaving X-axis with distance Y 3 of substrate 8 becomes coating starting position Sc, in paste patterns PTd, the position of leaving X-axis with distance Y 4 of substrate 8 becomes coating starting position Sd.
In addition, coating starting position Sa~Sd is set at Y1 and Y3 equates that (Y1=Y3), Y2 and Y4 equate (Y2=Y4).
At this, applying starting position from each when the Y direction of the O of substrate center is set interference range YC, among paste patterns PTa, the PTb,
(Y2-YC)-(Y1+YC)>0
That is,
Y2-Y1-2YC>0
The time, applicator head 5A, 5B can not interfere with each other and move.In addition, among paste patterns PTc, the PTd,
(Y4-YC)-(Y3+YC)>0
That is,
Y4-Y3-2YC>0
The time, applicator head 5C, 5D can not interfere with each other and move.
In addition, interference range YC is waited to determine by the size of the Y direction of applicator head 5A~5D.
Returning Figure 14 describes, at the paste patterns PTa~PTd that describes on the substrate 8 is identical shapedly (step S521 → Yes), can describe simultaneously that (or not step S523 → Yes), 9 calculating of master control part are not up to the amount of movement (step S525) of coating starting position during the interference range at nozzle for step S522 → Yes) and coating starting position Sa~Sd.
On the other hand, (step S521 → No) or ((step S523 → Yes), 9 of master control part advanced to step S524 with processing when step S522 → No) or coating starting position Sa~Sd were in the interference range of nozzle can not describe simultaneously time when paste patterns PTa~PTd that describes on substrate 8 is not identical shaped.
In this case, whole paste patterns unifications can not be described simultaneously, the paste patterns that master control part 9 can not be unified to describe (NG pattern) is as the uncoated pattern, for example be stored in (step S524) among the RAM, make the applicator head of describing the paste patterns that to describe in separately origin position standby.
And in order to describe describable paste patterns, master control part 9 makes the applicator head of describing this paste patterns move to the coating starting position.That is, according to position deviation calculate each nozzle from the origin position Ta~Td of correspondence shown in Figure 12 to the X of the coating starting position Sa~Sd of the paste patterns of describing, the amount of movement (step S525) of Y direction.
For example, when applicator head 5C, 5D are judged to be " interference is arranged " (step S523 → No), with the side in them for example the paste patterns PTd that describes of applicator head 5D for another applicator head 5C and applicator head 5A, 5B, carry out the processing of above-mentioned step S525 as the uncoated pattern.
In this case, master control part 9 makes applicator head 5D in origin position Td standby.Particularly, master control part 9 is established the position that the Y direction position of applicator head 5D is the Y coordinate of origin position Td.
In addition, from the origin position of the applicator head that applies describable paste patterns to the X of the coating starting position of the paste patterns of describing, the amount of movement of Y direction, following trying to achieve.
For example, be example with applicator head 5A, as shown in figure 12, the position coordinates of its origin position Ta is set at (X011, in the time of Y001), the coating starting position Sa (X1 of the nozzle 5A8 from origin position Ta to this applicator head 5A, Y1) amount of movement LX111, LY111 can followingly calculate.
LX111=X1-X011
LY111=Y1-Y001
Like this, calculate the amount of movement (step S525) of all applicator head 5A~5D that also comprise the applicator head relative, it is set (step S526) with the uncoated pattern.
At this, will the amount of movement of the nozzle setting of applicator head 5A~5D be set at respectively:
Applicator head 5A:(LX111, LY111)
Applicator head 5B:(LX111, LY112)
Applicator head 5C:(LX121, LY121)
Applicator head 5D:(LX121, LY122)
Wherein, LX is the amount of movement of X-direction, and LY is the amount of movement of Y direction.
In this case, because applicator head 5A, 5B are configured on the support 2A, the amount of movement of the X-direction of applicator head 5A, 5B equates; Because applicator head 5C, 5D are configured on the support 2B, the amount of movement of the X-direction of applicator head 5C, 5D equates.
Based on above setting, the applicator head that master control part 9 is used in describable paste patterns moves the amount of movement of having set (step S527), with the set positions of the front end of the nozzle coating starting position at corresponding paste patterns.
At this, when applicator head 5A~5D was moved, master control part 9 must make the movable part 4A of traversing carriage 2A and movable part 4B move simultaneously.In addition, the movable part 4C of traversing carriage 2B and movable part 4D are moved simultaneously.
With reference to Figure 17 support 2A, 2B and the mobile of applicator head 5A~5D are described.
Master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 7) generates the driving signal that is used for mobile movable part 4A and movable part 4B by motor controller 9d (with reference to Fig. 7), as the exciting current of supplying with to cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1, by the driving signal (exciting current) that is generated being distributed and supplying to cradle portion armature coil 4a1,4b1, be controlled to be movable part 4A and movable part 4B as by a Motor Drive.
Similarly, by the driving signal (exciting current) that is generated by motor controller 9d being distributed and supplying to cradle portion armature coil 4c1,4d1, be controlled to be movable part 4C and movable part 4D as by a Motor Drive.
Like this, master control part 9 makes support 2A and support 2B displacement LX111, LX121 respectively by suitably supplying with exciting current to cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1.
In addition, master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 7) generates the driving signal that is used for mobile applicator head 5A~5D by motor controller 9d (with reference to Fig. 7), as the exciting current of supplying with to head armature coil 5a2~5d2.
Specifically, master control part 9 generates the driving signal that makes applicator head 5A displacement LY111 by motor controller 9d, as the exciting current of supplying with to head armature coil 5a1; Generate the driving signal that makes applicator head 5B displacement LY112 by motor controller 9d, as the exciting current of supplying with to head armature coil 5b1; Generate the driving signal that makes applicator head 5C displacement LY121 by motor controller 9d, as the exciting current of supplying with to head armature coil 5c1; Generate the driving signal that makes applicator head 5D displacement LY122 by motor controller 9d, as the exciting current of supplying with to head armature coil 5d2.
And, supply with exciting current to head armature coil 5a2~5d2.
As mentioned above, in the step S527 of Figure 14,9 couples of motor controller 9d of master control part control, via X-axis is that linear motor is linear motor amplifier 9e5~9e8 with amplifier 9e1~9e4, Y-axis, will drive signal and supply with to cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1, head armature coil 5a2~5d2 simultaneously as exciting current.But, in this case, be not included among the step S524 of Figure 14 as the employed applicator head of the paste patterns of uncoated pattern.
In addition, moving of each applicator head 5A~5D also can not carried out the linear interpolation computing, and makes nozzle 5A8~5D8 arrive corresponding paste patterns PTa~PTd coating starting position Sa~Sd separately simultaneously.
And each applicator head 5A~5D moves to coating starting position Sa~Sd (step S527), and nozzle 5A8~5D8 is behind the mobile end of the coating starting position of corresponding paste patterns PTa~PTd Sa~Sd (step S528), and the step S520 of Figure 13 finishes.
Returning Figure 13 describes.As previously mentioned, the nozzle of each applicator head 5A~5D moves to (step S520) after coating starting position Sa~Sd of each the paste patterns PTa~PTd that describes, and sub-control portion 10 carries out the gap of nozzle 5A8~5D8 of applicator head 5A~5D and sets (step S530).
As previously mentioned, " gap " is the height (the vertical range AZ shown in Fig. 6 (b)) from the last interarea 8a of the substrate 8 of coating coating slurry to the front end of nozzle 5A8~5D8, sub-control portion 10 drives Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1 of each applicator head 5A~5D, Z axle workbench 5A3~5D3 is moved in Z-direction, the position (apart from the vertical range Δ Z of the last interarea 8a of substrate 8, gap) of ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 that is formed at the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set at the coating height (thickness) of the paste patterns PTa~PTd of coating.
Usually, the coating height setting of paste patterns PTa~PTd is 20~40 μ m.
In addition, the coating of the sealing of the vacation shown in Fig. 9 (b) DMYa~DMYd, DMYx, DMYy highly is preferably set to about 15 μ m.
The slurry coating machine 100 of present embodiment is in order to ensure this coating height, preferably constitutes the vertical range Δ Z (gap) of the leading section of the last interarea 8a (with reference to Fig. 6 (b)) of substrate 8 and nozzle 5A8~5D8 to be set in 5~80 μ m.
And the position that sub-control portion 10 will be formed at ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set at the coating height of paste patterns PTa~PTd in the scope of 5~80 μ m.
In addition, when describing false sealing DMYa~DMYd, DMYx, DMYy on substrate 8, the height of ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 that sub-control portion 10 will be formed at the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set at the coating height of false sealing DMYa~DMYd, DMYx, DMYy in the scope of 5~80 μ m.
Specifically, the 10 control motor controller 10c of sub-control portion generate the driving signal that is used to drive Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1.This driving signal is the exciting current that drives Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1, after sub-control portion 10 passes through Z axle servomotor amplifier 10d1~10d4 amplification with the exciting current that is generated, supply to Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1 and driving as driving signal, Z axle workbench 5A3~5D3 is moved in Z-direction.
In addition, sub-control portion 10 utilizes Z shaft encoder 5A1a~5D1a to detect the amount of movement of Z axle workbench 5A3~5D3, and Z axle workbench 5A3~5D3 is moved aptly.
Therefore, for each applicator head 5A~5D, sub-control portion 10 is based on the initial movable range data that each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set in advance, make the amount of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 decline initial movable distance, utilize its height of optical distance measuring instrument 5A4~5D4 instrumentation that is provided with separately apart from the last interarea 8a of substrate 8.
Then, sub-control portion 10 confirms to each applicator head 5A~5D whether the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set at the coating height of paste patterns PTa~PTd, the front end of each nozzle 5A8~5D8 is set under the coating situation highly of paste patterns PTa~PTd, and the processing of this step S530 finishes.
In addition, when the front end of nozzle 5A8~5D8 is not set at the coating height of paste patterns PTa~PTd, 10 in sub-control portion rises or the decline slight distance nozzle 5A8~5D8, utilize optical distance measuring instrument 5A4~5D4 to its distance of each applicator head 5A~5D instrumentation, each applicator head 5A~5D is repeated this rising and decline apart from the slight distance of instrumentation and nozzle 5A8~5D8 to the last interarea 8a of substrate 8.Sub-control portion 10 repeats this processing, all is set to the coating height of paste patterns until the front end of all nozzle 5A8~5D8.
And after sub-control portion sets in 10 end gaps (step S530), then, master control part 9 is carried out slurry coating and is moved processing (step S540).
At this, master control part 9 makes nozzle 5A8~5D8 of the applicator head 5A~5D that can move freely move according to same paths, describes identical paste patterns by all applicator head 5A~5D.
Therefore, master control part 9 with two support 2A, 2B as by Motor Drive and mobile mode output drive signal.
In addition, master control part 9 with four applicator head 5A~5D as by Motor Drive and mobile mode output drive signal.
Specifically, master control part 9 is determined the action of support 2A, 2B, applicator head 5A~5D based on the data (pattern data) that are illustrated in the paste patterns PTa~PTd that describes on the substrate 8, to describe paste patterns by X, Y-axis diaxon.
And, when master control part 9 made support 2A, 2B action, as shown in figure 18, the driving signal (X-direction coating instruction) that motor controller 9d is generated distributed, by X-axis is linear motor amplifier 9e1~9e4 amplification, supplies to cradle portion armature coil 4a1~4d1.
In addition, when master control part 9 is moved applicator head 5A~5D, the driving signal (Y direction coating instruction) that motor controller 9d is generated distributes, and is linear motor amplifier 9e5~9e8 amplification by Y-axis, supplies to head armature coil 5a2~5d2.
And then, master control part 9 control valve unit 20, to slurry admission extinguisher 5A5~5D5 supply with malleation after utilizing adjuster 17 pressure regulation, negative pressure after utilizing adjuster 19 pressure regulation, spray slurry from ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of nozzle 5A8~5D8.
By so a series of action, ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of nozzle 5A8~5D8 of each applicator head 5A~5D is with the state relative with substrate 8, move in X, Y direction according to paste patterns, and, slurry admission extinguisher 5A5~5D5 to applicator head 5A~5D applies a little air pressure, makes the ejection of slurry from ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of each nozzle 5A8~5D8.
And, as previously mentioned, the measured data at the interval of the ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 of nozzle 5A8~5D8 that sub-control portion 10 obtains by the optical distance measuring instrument 5A4~5D4 by applicator head 5A~5D and the last interarea 8a of substrate 8, measure the fluctuating of the last interarea 8a of substrate 8, drive Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1 of applicator head 5A~5D according to this measured value.Thereby ejiction opening 5A9~5D9 is maintained at separately setting value apart from the height of the last interarea 8a of substrate 8, and slurry coating machine 100 can utilize the slurry of the coating amount of requirement to describe paste patterns PTa~PTd.
As above handle, master control part 9 is depicted the paste patterns PTa~PTd shown in Fig. 9 (a) on substrate 8.Then, master control part 9 judges that often and/or suitably whether each slurry ejiction opening is the terminal of paste patterns PTa~PTd of being determined by the pattern data on the substrate 8, if not its terminal, turns back to the mensuration processing of fluctuating of the last interarea 8a of substrate 8 again.And after, repeat shown in Figure 13 describing and handle (step S540), continue to the terminal that all applicator head 5A~5D arrive paste patterns PTa~PTd.
And when all applicator head 5A~5D arrived the terminal of paste patterns PTa~PTd, sub-control portion 10 drove Z axle servomotor 5A1~5D1 of applicator head 5A~5D, and its nozzle 5A8~5D8 is risen.And the numbering of the paste patterns after master control part 9 will be described to finish is entered into (step S550) among the RAM, returns step S510.
But, as former explanation, by carrying out the step S524 of Figure 14, for example, in its coating starting position, a side of two paste patterns that applicator head interferes with each other is logged among the RAM as the uncoated pattern, therefore, master control part 9 judges to remove whether uncoated pattern (step S510) is arranged applying the paste patterns of finishing, and (step S510 → Yes) described the uncoated pattern to the action of this uncoated pattern execution in step S520~S550 when the uncoated pattern was arranged.
At this moment, there is other applicator head with this applicator head possibility of interference to stop describing of paste patterns and is withdrawn into separately origin position, so can not interfere.And, finish (step S510 → No), finish the slurry coating operation (step S500) among Figure 11 after the coating of all paste patterns.
Then, after the step S500 of Figure 11 finished, then, the substrate 8 that master control part 9 will have been described paste patterns PTa~PTd was discharged to the outside (step S600) of slurry coating machine 100.
That is to say that master control part 9 stops the driving of foregoing suction device (not shown), remove the absorption of substrate 8 to substrate holding tray 6.
And, when on polylith substrate 8, describing identical shaped paste patterns PTa~PTd (step S700 → No), again to the processing of substrate 8 execution in step S300~S700 of describing paste patterns PTa~PTd, thereafter, to all substrates 8, when a series of paste patterns PTa~PTd describe finish the back (step S700 → Yes), a series of operation (step S800) of paste patterns PTa~PTd described in master control part 9 end on substrate 8.
As previously discussed, the slurry coating machine 100 (with reference to Fig. 1) of present embodiment can describe to require the paste patterns PTa~PTd (with reference to Fig. 9 (a)) of shape on substrate 8 (with reference to Fig. 1).
In addition, as shown in figure 10, when on substrate 8, describing small-sized paste patterns PTs1~PTs4, after the slurry coating that finishes step S500 shown in Figure 11, master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 1) and sub-control portion 10 (with reference to Fig. 1) suitably make support 2A, 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) and applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) move, and describe small-sized paste patterns PTs1~PTs4.
Its sequence of operation is so long as be that the order of benchmark gets final product with the order of describing paste patterns PTa~PTd.
Then, other embodiment of the present invention (variation) is described.
Slurry coating machine 100 shown in Figure 1 constitutes, and two support 2A, 2B can move respectively with the rectangular direction of the length direction of each support (X-direction).
With respect to this, this variation is with the fixing formation of a support (for example support 2B), does not just want the formation of movable part 4C, 4D.
And, supporting substrates holding tray 6, and constitute and can move in X-direction at the rotatable crossed roller bearing 7 of θ direction of principal axis.In addition, support 2A is removable equally by movable part 4A, 4B and aforesaid formation.
Substrate holding tray 6 is not limited in mechanism that X-direction moves, for example so long as not shown linear motor, ball screw framework etc. get final product.
Particularly when substrate holding tray 6 being moved, can constitute and with the speed of the scope of 20~500mm/s substrate holding tray 6 to be moved by not shown linear motor.
In this variation, during X-direction coating coating slurry on substrate 8, substrate 8 is moved and coating coating slurry in X-direction.
The support 2A that can move in X-direction moves before beginning coating, with the interval of the X-direction of applicator head 5A, the 5B of the applicator head 5C, the 5D that determine support 2B and support 2A.
In this variation, have substrate holding tray 6 can be also used as that substrate 8 moves in applying device move into advantages such as device.
In addition, in the above embodiment and variation that has illustrated, applicator head 5A~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) can (with reference to Fig. 1) move along Y direction on support 2A, 2B, but also can carry out the formation of minute movement for applicator head 5A~5D with respect to support 2A, 2B along X-direction.
Figure 19 represents can be with respect to support 2A, the 2B configuration example at the applicator head 5A~5D of X-direction minute movement.
In addition, among Figure 19, be that example describes with applicator head 5A, but other applicator head 5B~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) also is identical formation.
The difference of applicator head 5A shown in applicator head 5A shown in Figure 19 and Fig. 5 (a) is, Z axis rail 5A2 is via being used to make applicator head 5A at the aligning gear of X-direction minute movement and supported by support 2A.In addition, among Figure 19, the identical label of key element mark for identical with the applicator head 5A shown in Fig. 5 (a) and (b) suitably omits detailed explanation.
The aligning gear of applicator head 5A possesses the movable base 30B2 of supporting Z axis rail 5A2, in addition, possesses the guide rail base 30B1 that is used for movably supporting in X-direction movable base 30B2 on support 2A.
That is to say that applicator head 5A is supported by movable base 30B2.
Guide rail base 30B1 comprises: the 30B1a of upper rall portion that is provided with is extended on the top at support 2A along X-direction; Below support 2A, extend the 30B1c of lower guide portion that is provided with along X-direction; And at the supporting arm 30B1b of the 30B1a of the upper rall portion hanger bearing lower guide 30B1c of portion.
And the 30B1c of lower guide portion is mounted in the side that applicator head 5A is installed and extends from support 2A.
Also possess top mobile device 30G1 that moves in upper rall portion 30B1a upper edge X-direction and the bottom mobile device 30G2 that moves in lower guide portion 30B1c upper edge X-direction, movable base 30B2 is supported by 30B1a of upper rall portion and the 30B1c of lower guide portion via top mobile device 30G1 and bottom mobile device 30G2.
Specifically, the 30B2a of upper support portion of movable base 30B2 is fixed on the mobile device 30G1 of top, and the 30B2c of lower support portion is fixed on the mobile device 30G2 of bottom.
And 30B2a of upper support portion and the 30B2c of lower support portion are linked by linking part 30B2b, constitute movable base 30B2.
According to this formation, movable base 30B2 can be with respect to support 2A in the X-direction minute movement.
In addition, the aligning gear of applicator head 5A possesses and is used to X-axis adjustment motor 30m that movable base 30B2 is moved.
For example, the X-axis adjustment is linked by coupling unit 30Cp with rotating shaft and the rotating shaft 30S that motor 30m extends downwards from the X-axis adjustment with the top that motor 30m is configured in the 30B1a of upper rall portion as shown in figure 19.Rotating shaft 30S disposes in the mode of extending downwards, and its lower end is installed in the bearing 30R rotation supporting freely of the 30B1c of lower guide portion.
On rotating shaft 30S, dispose the cam mechanism 30C that the 30B2c of lower support portion that makes movable base 30B2 moves along X-direction.
And by following the spinning movement of X-axis adjustment with the cam mechanism 30C of the rotation of motor 30m, the 30B2c of lower support portion of movable base 30B2 is transferred in X-direction, and movable base 30B2 is in the X-direction minute movement.
According to the aligning gear of such formation, can make the applicator head 5A that supported by movable base 30B2 with respect to support 2A in the X-direction minute movement.
About applicator head 5B shown in Figure 1~5D, also possesses aligning gear with the identical formation of applicator head 5A shown in Figure 19, thus, can finely tune the position of the X-direction of each applicator head 5A~5D, therefore, for example have and to come absorptive substrate 8 by the fine setting of applicator head 5A~5D in the such excellent results of the side-play amount of direction of rotation.
In addition, on substrate 8 (with reference to Fig. 1), describe in the operation of the paste patterns PTa~PTd shown in Fig. 9 (a) for example, comprise that the applicator head 5A (with reference to Fig. 1) of nozzle 5A8 (with reference to Fig. 6 (a)) moves on substrate 8.Therefore, in the structure of existing applicator head 5A, follow the action of applicator head 5A and produce dust, the clean conditions of the area of application is worsened.
Particularly, because slurry coating machine 100 shown in Figure 1 possesses four applicator head 5A~5D, the generating capacity of dust increases.Therefore, for example, producing LCD (Liquid Crystal Display: need under the situation about describing of carrying out paste patterns under the clean environment, have the problem that yield rate reduces, quality is low that causes in the production process in the time of LCD) etc.
So, for example also can on slurry coating machine 100 shown in Figure 1, dust-proof mechanism be set.
Figure 20 is the stereogram of mounting portion of a concrete example of the dust-proof mechanism that possesses of expression slurry coating machine 100 shown in Figure 1,20E is for attracting portion of mechanism, 20E1 is an aiutage, and 20E2 is band HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air: the efficiency particulate air) fan of filter.
In addition, Figure 21 is travel mechanism's (y-axis shift actuation mechanism) of expression applicator head and the drawing in side sectional elevation that attracts the concrete example of the 20E of portion of mechanism.
In Figure 20 and Figure 21, the identical label of key element mark for identical with the applicator head 5A shown in Fig. 5 (a) and (b) suitably omits detailed explanation.
In addition, in Figure 20 and Figure 21, illustrate support 2A and applicator head 5A, but support 2B (with reference to Fig. 1) and applicator head 5B~5D (with reference to Fig. 1) also can be identical formation.
As shown in figure 20, between support 2A and movable part 4A, 4B, being respectively equipped with the formation that attracts the 20E of portion of mechanism.
In addition, as shown in figure 21, on support 2A, constitute and the identical applicator head 5A of formation shown in Fig. 5 (a) and (b), also possess not shown applicator head 5B (with reference to Fig. 1).
And, be configured among the applicator head 5A (5B) on the support 2A, mainly be that the y-axis shift actuation mechanism is covered by dust cover 101.
Below, with respect to dust cover 101 with y-axis shift actuation mechanism one side of applicator head 5A inboard as dust cover 101.
In addition, 10CB shown in Figure 21 is the soft pipe arrangement of cable/pneumatics that is used for supplying with to applicator head 5A electricity and air pressure, and SH is elongated hole (the air-breathing slotted hole of using), and SHN is for attracting the hole.
The soft pipe arrangement 10CB of cable/pneumatics shown in Figure 21, to the supply line (not shown) of head armature coil 5a2 supply capability, be used for sending the holding wire distributions such as (not shown) of the detection signal of detector 5a3 (with reference to Fig. 5 (a)) to master control part 9 (with reference to Fig. 1), be clustered in cable support 2aM, be connected with master control part 9, sub-control portion 10 (with reference to Fig. 1), valve cell 20 (with reference to Fig. 7) etc.
Like this, in the y-axis shift actuation mechanism of applicator head 5A, owing to dispose many cables, when applicator head 5A moved, when these cables contacted with each other friction, constituent material was separately peeled off and is produced particulate (dust).
In addition, on the contact site of line slideway 2a2,2a3 and abutment portion 5a1, also produce the particulate of formation such as dispersing of constituent material, lubricating oil.
The dust-proof mechanism that support 2A possesses is to be used to prevent that such particulate is attached on the substrate 8 and the mechanism that the yield rate of production is reduced.
Therefore, utilize dust cover 101 that the y-axis shift actuation mechanism that support 2A goes up the applicator head 5A that constitutes is covered and the formation dust-proof mechanism.
In addition, as shown in figure 21, on abutment portion 5a1, dispose applicator head support 50A.Applicator head support 50A is the parts of cantilever support applicator head 5A, and it constitutes: the end is one side-prominent and Z axis rail 5A2 is installed towards what applicator head 5A was installed.
As shown in figure 22,50A is formed with slot 50A2,50A3 at the applicator head support, and it forms along the groove shape of the moving direction of abutment portion 5a1 (being Y direction).
Slot 50A2 forms the groove shape of one or more (among Figure 22 being two) at the upside of applicator head support 50A, and slot 50A3 forms the groove shape of one or more (among Figure 22 being two) at the downside of applicator head 50A.
The quantity of slot 50A2,50A3 is unqualified, sets with the reasonable quantity of one or more to get final product.
And, slot 50A2 forms above applicator head support 50A, the end of dust cover 101 is engaging movably slidably, and when Y direction moved, applicator head support 50A slided along the end of dust cover 101 and moves applicator head support 50A with abutment portion 5a1.
In addition, slot 50A3 forms below applicator head support 50A, and the end of dust cover 102 is engaging movably slidably.
Dust cover 102 is that the mode with the gap, below of stopping up support 2A and applicator head support 50A is installed in the cover on the support 2A, when Y direction moved, applicator head support 50A slided along the end of dust cover 102 and moves applicator head support 50A with abutment portion 5a1.
Like this, the formation that end by dust cover 101 engages with slot 50A2, the end of dust cover 102 engages with slot 50A3 can prevent that the particulate that disperses in the inboard of dust cover 101 from dispersing laterally from the holding section of applicator head support 50A and dust cover 101,102.
In addition, inside at applicator head support 50A constitutes: be formed with the through hole 50A1 that connects from the inboard of dust cover 101 to the outside, the soft pipe arrangement 10CB of cable/pneumatics is drawn out to applicator head 5A (with reference to a Figure 21) side by through hole 50A1 from the inboard of dust cover 101.
And the 20E of portion of attraction mechanism shown in Figure 20,21 attracts the particulate that produces in the inboard of dust cover 101, the particulate that produces on substrate 8.
