[Embodiment] Figs. 2A to 2D and Fig. 2 are a flow chart showing a screen printing method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The screen printing method of this embodiment is suitable for printing an ink to a workpiece including the following steps. First, as shown in FIG. 2A, a workpiece 2 such as a circuit substrate is fixed to a work platform 212' and a screen 220 is placed above the workpiece 2, wherein the screen 220 is, for example, a frame 222. It is composed of a screen 224 mounted on the frame 222. Next, as shown in Fig. 2B, an ink 22 is placed at an appropriate position on the screen 220 (wire net 224). Then, as shown in Fig. 2C, the ink 22 is moved by the two doctor blades 234 and 234 so that the ink 22 is slid through the screen 224 to the workpiece 20 to form a printed pattern 24 on the workpiece 20. Wherein, the screen 224 has, for example, a patterned web 224a, and the ink 22 can thereby form the printed pattern 24 on the workpiece 2 by patterning the web 224a. Specifically, during the process of moving the ink 22 by the doctor sets 234 and 234', the doctor sets 234 and 234' will press down the screen 224, and the ink 22 will be pressed by the blade sets 234 and 234, 1289107 21144twf.doc/006. The gap passing through the patterned web 224a is printed onto the workpiece 20. Thereafter, as shown in Fig. 2D, the blade set and the screen are removed. Thus, the workpiece 20 has a printed pattern 24 thereon. It is worth mentioning that, in the present embodiment, the blade set 234 is 34, and the ink shifting directions are opposite to each other. For example, the second blade sets 234 and 234' of the embodiment are moved from the middle of the screen 22 to the sides 220a, 22Gb of the screen 22, respectively. Of course, in another preferred embodiment, the doctor blades 234 and 234 may also be moved from the sides of the screen 22 to the intermediate screen of the screen 220. In the present embodiment, when the doctor sets 234 and 234, the screen 224 is pressed down, and the ink 22 disposed on the screen 224 is moved from the middle of the screen 22 to the sides 220a, 220b of the screen 220, Since the blade set 2 is moved from the middle of the screen 220 to the side 22 of the screen 22, the blade set is moved from the middle of the screen 220 to 22% of the side of the screen 22. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the blade shifting distance of the doctor blade set 234 or 234 is only two-half of the ink travel distance of the conventional doctor blade, and the stretch width of the wire mesh 224 of this embodiment is less obvious. On the other hand, since the blade groups 234 and 234' of the present embodiment have ink in the opposite direction to each other, the force applied by the blade set 234 to the screen 224 will be offset by the force applied to the screen 224 by the blade set 234, so that The screen 224 does not elastically expand due to the increase in the ink travel distance of the doctor sets 234 and 234, and the size of the patterned web 224a on the screen 224 does not change. In other words, the patterned web 224a of the present embodiment can accurately print the ink 22 on the workpiece 20 on the printing area on the workpiece 2 to form the above-mentioned printing 1289107 21144twf.doc/006 Brush pattern 24. The screen printing method mentioned above is a process of describing a screen printing apparatus 200 (shown in Fig. 3) for processing the workpiece 2.

As described above, the work unit 230 includes a frame 232 and two scraper sets 234 and 234'. The frame 232 is disposed on the work platform 212, and the two scraper sets 234 and 234' are disposed on the frame 232. In the present embodiment, the blade set 234 (234) is composed, for example, of a blade holder 234a and a blade 234b. The blade holder 234b is connected to the frame 232 by a linkage mechanism 236, for example, and the blade 234b. It is fixed to the blade holder 234a and can be moved over the screen 220 to smear the ink 22 to the workpiece 2. In the case where the screen printing apparatus 2 stencils the workpiece 20, the ink transfer direction of the knife group 234 is opposite to that of the blade set 234, so that the ink 22 can be accurately scraped. Printing bar area printed on the workpiece 2 。. °. In a preferred embodiment, the frame 232 has a guide I, 232a, such as a guide rail, and the doctor sets 234 and 234' are associated with the guide 232a. Thus, the blade sets 234 and 234 can be moved by the guide means 232a to move the ink 22 disposed on the screen 220. In addition, the working unit 230 of the embodiment 10 1289107 21144 twf.doc/006 may further include a power device (not shown), and the scraper group 2 and 234 may be driven by the power device to reciprocate on the phantom 2 mobile.
