Description

Thin plate turning device (1)

This creation relates to a thin plate turning device, especially one that can effectively improve the turning efficiency of the thin plate.

In the manufacturing process of the printed circuit board, before the substrate is exposed, a photoresist layer and a film adhered to the surface of the photoresist layer are formed on the top and bottom surfaces of the substrate, respectively, and the PCB is exposed on the After exposure to the lower two sides, the film is peeled off to expose the photoresist layer for subsequent development and etching procedures. In the above exposure procedure, an exposure machine can only expose the upper or lower surface of the PCB at a time. In this way, there is no problem in the operation of the PCB board that only requires single-sided exposure, but for the PCB board that requires double-sided exposure, it is necessary to turn the PCB board after the exposure of one surface To perform the exposure operation of another surface.

For other types of thin plates (such as sandblasted glass), if double-sided processing is required, and the upper surface and the lower surface are processed separately, it is also necessary to turn the thin plate after another surface processing for additional A surface processing operation.

However, the above-mentioned sheet turning operation is mainly carried out by manual operation, which is not ideal in the overall operation efficiency, and it is often necessary to purchase two sets of the same equipment to process the double surfaces of the sheet separately, which greatly increases the production cost. .
