Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a production device and a manufacturing process of a flat panel display (FPD), and more particularly to a manufacturing process in a flat panel display. The completed panel is affixed with a 1C wafer or a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) substrate to complete the material flow in the module flow of a module and the production equipment used in the logistics. [Prior Art] Although a conventional cathode-ray tube type display device can provide excellent image quality, it is disadvantageous in that the volume of the display device is increased when the display surface is enlarged. Therefore, in order to adapt to the current trend of providing mobile and portable products, such as portable computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, etc., flat panel displays have replaced conventional display devices. In a flat panel display, a liquid crystal display (LCD) that uses the optical characteristics of a liquid crystal to vary with electrical properties is commonly used for display screens of computers and notebook computers. The manufacturing process of a flat panel display typically includes a Thin Film Transistor (TFT) process, a liquid crystal process, and a module process. The thin film transistor process is a process in which a thin film transistor is arranged on a glass substrate by using a method of deposition, photolithography, and etching. The liquid crystal process is a process of forming an orientation film and injecting a liquid crystal into the upper and lower plates 125313518pifdoc of a panel on which a thin film transistor and a color filter are respectively formed. The module flow is a process of attaching an IC chip or a printed $= board substrate to a completed LCD panel on a finished panel. In particular, the module process includes a cleaning process for removing various impurities on the panel conveyed by the liquid crystal process with a cleaning liquid and a cleaning cloth, one of which is produced and attached to the upper surface of each panel - a unique barcode label Label printing process, a process for bonding an IC chip for driving a panel and a printed circuit board substrate to a panel of a bonded 1C wafer and a printed circuit board substrate using an anisotropic conductive film (ACF) After all the processing, the inspection processing of each of the above processing errors is checked. At the same time, another flat panel display, a plasma display panel (PDP), is a device that uses plasma generated by gas discharge. Since the plasma display panel has a large viewing angle and is suitable for a large-sized display, it can be used for a wall-mounted television. In general, the manufacturing process of the plasma display panel includes a pre-process (pre_process), a post-process (postpr〇cess), and a module process. The pretreatment process is a process for producing upper and lower plates of a flat glass plate to which various films are applied. The post-treatment process is a process of joining the upper and lower plates, exhausting, and then injecting a discharge gas to complete a panel. The module flow is a process of attaching an IC chip or a printed circuit board (PCB) substrate to a finished panel to complete a plasma display panel module. The module flow in the plasma display panel manufacturing process is similar to the module flow in the liquid crystal display manufacturing process. I25313518pifdoc Figure 1 shows the process equipment used in the unit process of the module process in the production equipment of the ftp manufacturing process. Unit processing such as cleaning, label printing, bonding 1C and PCB and inspection process.

One hundred, first, after being processed by one unit of the previous platform, one = supply to the processor 20 located in the next process. The board is then communicated from the location to the platform 3G. The message identification unit (10) detects that the platform is on the platform %^, and the board checks the 'mosquito path, and sends it to the processing device 1〇, and then the surface processing device 1〇. Processing the implementation of the device 'Yuancheng - all the units of the panel is also 疋 兄 brother, just begin. Therefore, each unit is placed under the unit of the panel and the period of another problem is extended. It is in the case that if a unit handles a process set 125313Si8Pif.d〇c until the fault is resolved. In the event of an error, the entire logistics is stopped. [Inventive content] A gross month has been* considered in the above-mentioned conventional production equipment and manufacturing process.

According to these aspects, these aspects can be achieved by a manufacturing process of a flat panel display using a production device equipped with a plurality of unit processing devices, each unit processing device being included for The processing implementation device and the I253135_fd〇c are implemented on one panel. The new panel that implements the pre-operation of the panel to perform pre-operation is started. After the processing of the device is completed, the processing implementation device transmits a new panel that has received the pre-operation of the platform.仗 Another 2 implementation device is implemented when the panel that has completed the processing is flushed to the receiving panel and the operation from the other panel is turned off. (10) The decorated new face unit processing device further includes a processor for transferring the panel between the devices, and = in: 兀 processing = when the new panel is processed, the processing device of the processor = 3 receives - a new panel 2 = , - A processing device further includes a message that: when the pre-operation is executed, the message recognition unit in the processing device recognizes the location and performs the necessary information required for processing: the necessary message 'toward processing It is easy to understand the other purposes, features, and advantages of implementing the device transmission execution processing. It is more obvious that the panel is specifically described as a processing panel and transmitted to other places. = The new panel to the flat D begins to accept the pre-operation of the new 125313 § 18 post as clearly as follows.

The standby 110 (S122). Although the two operations can be sequentially performed, it is good practice that the two operations are simultaneously performed to reduce the operation time. When the processing in the processing implementation device 110 is completed again, the station 131 transmits the panel p that has been processed. Go to the handler 220 of the processing device located in the next process. The processor 12 receives the other new panel P from the previous step, and transmits the panel p to the first, and then repeats the operations of S106-S124. It can be clearly seen that, according to the present invention, the flat two transmits the panel to the platform in each unit processing device, so that the panel on one of the platforms can be processed to the panel on the other platform. Performing the necessary scooping process to reduce the cycle time of the process. For example, in the manufacturing process of the device, when the device on the second platform is processed and processed, the transfer is performed. After the operation of the 13 I25313518pifdoc processing device, the operation of the first platform from the front-step processing device is received, and the operation for the processing on the first platform can be performed simultaneously, so the cycle time is reduced. The sum of the time required by 14 (4), thereby increasing productivity. In addition, 'even if one solid platform of one or more unit processing equipment on the entire production line is wrong', another platform can complete the operation of the production line to stop. 6 Although the present invention has been disclosed in the above preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, and may be modified and modified without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims.
