Abstract

PURPOSE:To print cream solder without mounting a flexible board to a jig and without causing dislocation between printing area on the flexible board and mask holes by using a squeegee placed in the mask to squeeze cream solder out of mask holes so as to print cream solder onto a printing board running on the side opposite to the contact surface between the squeegee and the mask. CONSTITUTION:When a squeegee 9 is rotated, sprocket pieces 11 on the squeegee fit in feeding holes 8 on the mask, sprocket holes 5 on the flexible board, and sprocket slots 12 on a feed roller to run the flexible board in the direction of arrow head B while rotating the mask 6. Then, cream solder 14 that is made to run out on the squeegee 9 enters between the squeegee and the mask 6, is thrusted by the squeegee to fill the mask holes 7, and adheres to a printing area that is in contact with mask holes. When the mask further rotates and the mask hole is separated from the flexible board, cream solder 14 remains in the printing area on the flexible board. By making nozzle 13 inject an appropriate amount of cream solder to an appropriate place depending on a residual amount of cream solder on the mask, a constant printing condition can be always maintained.
