The present disclosure provides a method and system by which a precise amount of a viscous fluid sealing compound can be dispensed at required locations through computer vision-based observation of the fluid deposited, its rate and amount of deposition and location; and that the dispensed fluid may be accurately shaped through robotic or other special purpose mechanism motion. The invention enables instant quality inspection of the dispensing process in terms of the locations, amounts and shapes of newly created seals.

A developing device and a developing method of substrate are provided. The developing device comprises: a conveying platform and a spraying mechanism disposed above the conveying platform; the spraying mechanism comprising a spraying pipe; a plurality of first nozzles and a plurality of second nozzles disposed on the spraying pipe. The conveying platform is used for conveying a substrate, and tilting the substrate with respect to the horizontal direction during a conveying process. The first nozzles are used for spraying a chemical solution onto the substrate continuously; the second nozzles are used for starting or ending spraying the chemical solution onto the substrate according to a predetermined spray density.

An apparatus for depositing a radius filler, made of a homogeneous material, into a groove, formed in a workpiece comprises a chassis, first means for extruding the radius filler along an extrusion axis, second means for providing the homogeneous material to the first means, and third means for compacting the radius filler in the groove. The apparatus also comprises a first sensor configured to provide first-sensor output. The apparatus further comprises a controller, operatively coupled to the first means, the second means, and the first sensor. Based on the first-sensor output, the controller is configured to determine the first geometric characteristics of the groove. In addition, based on the first geometric characteristics, the controller is configured to control second geometric characteristics of the radius filler, extruded by the first means, as the tool center point is moved relative to the groove.

The present invention relates to electrode slurry coating apparatus and method, the present invention ultimately allowing the process efficiency to be increased and rate of errors to be reduced when double-layer structured active material layers are formed by temporally adjusting the height of first and second discharge outlets through which active material is discharged.

A method is provided for coating a surface of a material with a film of porous coordination polymer. A first substrate having a first surface to be coated is positioned in a processing chamber such that the first surface is placed in an opposing relationship to a second surface. The second surface may be provided by a wall of the processing chamber, or in some cases the second surface may be provided by a second substrate to be coated. The first substrate is held such that a gap exists between the first and second surfaces, and the gap is filled with at least one reaction mixture comprising reagents sufficient to form the crystalline film on at least the first surface. A thin gap (e.g., less than 2 mm) between the first and second surfaces is effective for producing a high quality film having a thickness less than 100 μm. Confining the volume of the reaction mixture to a thin layer adjacent the substrate surface significantly reduces problems with sedimentation and concentration control. The size, shape, or average thickness of the gap may be adjusted during formation of the film in response to feedback from at least one film growth monitor.

An application system includes an application unit including a nozzle configured to discharge a seal agent to a work, and a moving device configured to move the application unit. The moving device includes a movable unit, an elevating unit, and a posture changing unit configured to be raised and lowered by the elevating unit and support the application unit. The nozzle includes a proximal end and a distal end portion configured to discharge the seal agent. The posture changing unit includes a pivot mechanism configured to make the application unit pivot about a vertical axis, and a pivot mechanism configured to make the application unit pivot about a horizontal axis. The vertical axis and the nozzle are located on the same axis, and the vertical axis and the horizontal axis cross on a center axis of the nozzle.

The present application discloses a coating device including: a coating gun configured to apply a coating agent to an object; a sensor device configured to form a detection area in which the coating agent is detected on the object; a bracket on which the coating gun and the sensor device are mounted; and a robot configured to hold and rotate the bracket about a predetermined first axis of rotation. When the robot rotates the bracket from a first rotational position, at which the coating gun applies the coating agent to a coating position on the object, to a second rotational position in which the bracket is angularly changed by a predetermined rotational angle about the first axis of rotation, the detection area overlaps with the coating position.

A dual-valve automatic calibration system comprises a primary positioner, a first secondary positioner and a second secondary positioner: the first secondary positioner and the second secondary positioner are connected with a first fluid coating unit and a second fluid coating unit, respectively; the primary positioner comprises a primary X-axis positioner and a primary Y-axis positioner; both the first secondary positioner and the second secondary positioner are connected with the primary X-axis positioner. In contrast to the prior art that a secondary positioner is installed on a primary Z-axis positioner, a dual-valve automatic calibration system contributes to promotion of positioning precision on the Z-axis and reduction of a burden imposed on the Z-axis.

Inspection devices and methods for inspecting an adhesive pattern on a substrate are disclosed. The inspection device includes at least one sensor having a heat sensor head for detecting a pattern of the adhesive bead, and a controller. Reference data representing a desired adhesive pattern is initially provided to a controller. A predetermined tolerance range for the desired adhesive pattern is also provided to the controller. An adhesive bead is discharged onto a substrate from a nozzle. A pattern of the discharged adhesive bead is then detected by the sensor when the substrate moves. Signals representing the detected pattern are received from the sensor at the controller. Finally, the signals representing the detected adhesive pattern are compared to the tolerance range of the desired adhesive pattern.

A workpiece processing apparatus which coats a front surface of a workpiece with a resin, the workpiece having devices formed in regions demarcated by a plurality of planned dividing lines formed in a lattice pattern. The workpiece processing apparatus includes a cassette mounting base mounted with a cassette housing a plurality of workpieces, a resin coating unit that coats the front surface of the workpiece with the resin, a resin curing unit that cures the resin by applying an external stimulus to the coated resin, a resin grinding unit that flattens the cured resin by grinding the cured resin by a rotating grinding stone, and a conveying mechanism that conveys the workpiece between the units.
