In a method for manufacturing metal bodies, e.g., stators for electric motors, a stack of sheet metal parts (14), which have thermally-curable adhesive layers provided therebetween, is guided over a mounting mandrel (11) of a tool, and/or is held by an external fixture (25). The stack is then heated to cure the adhesive layers while applying pressure thereto, thereby forming the metal body. In the course of the method, at least one of the applied pressure, the temperature of the stack, and/or the height of the stack is measured. A prescribed height of the stack is adjusted by performing a temperature-pressure control. The present system and method enables efficient and precise production of stators, is self-learning and enables the measurement, regulation and recording of all manufacturing parameters in the course of the manufacture of each individual stator. In particular, all manufacturing parameters can retrospectively be associated with an individual stator.

An apparatus for manufacturing a display device includes a stage on which a display panel is placed, an accommodation portion on which a display circuit board is placed, where the display circuit board is connected to the display panel, an interval adjustment portion that adjusts an interval between the stage and the accommodation portion, and a rotation driving portion that rotates the accommodation portion. When the interval adjustment portion applies a force to the display circuit board, the rotation driving portion rotates the accommodation portion.

An apparatus and a method for dispensing a viscous adhesive for attaching a semiconductor die onto a substrate are provided, where the method comprises the steps of dispensing a volume of viscous adhesive from a nozzle onto the substrate and moving the nozzle away from the substrate such that an adhesive tail is formed between the nozzle and the volume of viscous adhesive. The method further comprises the steps of capturing multiple images of the adhesive tail with an imaging device as the nozzle is moving away from the substrate with an imaging device; and thereafter detecting with the imaging device an instant when the adhesive tail breaks from the volume of viscous adhesive.

When a specification setting unit sets a specification of a lot number “k+1” after setting a specification of a lot number “k”, a mounting program selector performs a mounting program corresponding to the lot number “k”, and then selects a mounting program corresponding to the lot number “k+1” according to matching between a mounting number from the mounting program and a planned number of products of the lot number “k”. A printing program selector selects a printing program corresponding to the lot number “k”, and then selects a printing program corresponding to the lot number “k+1” according to matching between a sum of a printing number from the printing program and a defective product number and the planned number of products of the lot number “k”. Consequently, on-demand production of an electronic device can easily be manufactured on a manufacturing line.

A dispensing system includes a dispensing unit assembly configured to dispense viscous material and a gantry coupled to the frame. The gantry is configured to support the dispensing unit assembly and to move the dispensing unit assembly in x-axis and y-axis directions. The dispensing unit assembly includes a support bracket secured to the gantry and a movable bracket rotatably coupled to the support bracket by a first strain wave gear system configured to enable the rotation of the movable bracket with respect to the support bracket about a first axis. The dispensing unit assembly further includes a dispensing unit rotatably coupled to the movable bracket by a second strain wave gear system configured to enable the rotation of the dispensing unit with respect to the movable bracket about a second axis generally perpendicular to the first axis.

A component mounter provided with head, a device for moving head, transfer unit, and a mounting controller. Round plate is an example of a container for paste. The mounting controller, in the first operation mode, images components held by multiple nozzles using an imaging device before transfer is performed, and recognizes the position and/or orientation of each component based on the image of each component. Further, the head and the head moving device are controlled based on the position and/or orientation of each component such that a coating layer is transferred to connection terminals of each component at a transfer area of each of the components set in advance that does not include a margin based on the holding deviation of each component.

A coating device includes a container, a driving device, and a control section. The container accommodates a liquid coating agent to be applied to multiple mounting portions of a board on which a component is to be mounted. The driving device horizontally moves and lifts and lowers a pin member between the container and the positioned board. The control section drives and controls the driving device to dip the pin member in the coating agent to apply the coating agent to each of the multiple mounting portions using the coating agent held by a distal end portion of the pin member.

A device for applying a viscous material to workpieces includes a housing, an application channel extending in the housing up to an outlet opening, and a needle valve for opening and closing the application channel at a valve seat. An actuating element is mounted in the housing for rotation about a rotational axis extending parallel to a longitudinal direction in which the valve needle of the needle valve is movable relative to the housing. The actuating element has, in the radial lateral surface thereof, a guide groove extending circumferentially all around and curved in the axial direction in which at least one pin extending in the radial direction engages. The valve needle is connected to the actuating element or the at least one pin so that rotation of the actuating element about the rotational axis causes movement of the valve needle relative to the housing in the longitudinal direction.

The present disclosure provides a device transferring apparatus and a device transferring method, comprising: a controlling component and a punching component, the punching component is located at one side of the controlling component; the punching component comprises at least one punching head movable in a first direction; and the controlling component comprises a protruding portion corresponding to the at least one punching head and capable of protruding toward the corresponding punching head, the protruding portion pushes the punching head to move in the first direction by protruding the protruding portion.

Embodiments herein address these and other issues by providing a display assembly system with a pick-up tool having 6 degrees of freedom (6DOF) coupled with a pick-up head having an at least partially transparent adhesive element to which light-emitting structures may be adhered for picking and placement during the display manufacture process. Embodiments further include a touchdown sensor coupled with the pick-up tool and pick-up head that allow sensing of a force applied to the pick-up head in an upward direction.
