RP-1 solder paste printer has a special mechanism to align the bare PWB with a screen mask; drives three alignment modules attached on the outer circumference of the mask stage to adjust the position in X, Y and θ directions simultaneously. This permits repetitive printing accuracy of circumference fine adjustment to improve up to ±10μm, and duration including correction and movement time reduced to six sec. Optional automatic solder dispenser and cleaning functions available.
