Apparatus for microdeposition of multiple fluid materials
Abstract
A microdeposition system ( 20 ) and method deposits precise amounts of fluid material onto a substrate. A microdeposition head ( 50 ) includes a plurality of spaced nozzles. A positioning device controls a position of the microdeposition head relative to the substrate. A controller ( 22 ) includes a positioning module that communicates with the positioning device and that generates position control signals for the positioning device. A nozzle firing module communicates with the microdeposition head ( 50 ) and selectively generates nozzle firing commands to define features of at least one layer of an electrical device, such as resistors, traces and capacitors on a printed circuit board, polymer light emitting diodes, and light panels.
