A jetting apparatus for jetting droplets of viscous medium onto a substrate and a method of improving the performance of the jetting apparatus are provided. The jetting apparatus includes a jetting outlet through which the droplets are jetted, a flow generator for producing a flow of air past the jetting outlet for removing viscous medium residue at the jetting outlet, a receptacle for receiving viscous medium residue transported by the air flow away from the jetting outlet, and a flow path for the air flow between the jetting outlet and the flow generator, via the receptacle. A flow sensor is arranged in the flow path for measuring the air flow. An air flow signal representative of the air flow is obtained, the air flow signal is evaluated for determining at least one status of the jetting apparatus, and an indication of the status is provided.

Jetting apparatus and method of improving the performance of a jetting apparatus

A method for generating data for a jetting program, includes the steps of: a) obtaining substrate data for a substrate, which is to be provided with deposits and components; and b) for each component which is to be placed on the substrate: &#x2014;fetching component data for the component from said substrate data; and&#x2014;selecting a matching predefined deposit pattern, comprising at least one deposit, which matches a desired deposit pattern for said component data, wherein the deposit pattern comprises, for the/each deposit, deposit data comprising deposit extension and deposit position; or&#x2014;if no matching predefined deposit pattern exists, defining a deposit pattern, comprising at least one deposit, for the component data, comprising the step of defining, for the/each deposit, deposit data, which step comprises determining deposit extension and deposit position.

Method for generating a jetting program

A method and a system for jetting droplets of viscous medium, such as solder paste, onto a substrate, such as an electronic circuit board. The volume of the droplets are adjusted by regulating the amount of viscous medium that is fed into a jetting nozzle for subsequent jetting of the viscous medium droplets therefrom. The exit velocity of the jetted droplets is adjusted or maintained substantially constant by regulating the velocity with which the viscous medium is impacted. Furthermore, the rate at which viscous medium is fed, for instance by a feed screw, into the nozzle is adjusted in order to regulate the feeding time required for feeding the viscous medium into the jetting nozzle, for instance in order to maintain a constant feeding time.

Jetting device and method at a jetting device

An assembly for jetting droplets of a viscous medium. The assembly is releasably mountable in a machine using the assembly for providing a substrate with deposits. The assembly comprises an assembly holder having first holding means mating with an assembly support of a docking device of the machine, a nozzle, an eject mechanism connected to the nozzle, a viscous medium container connected to the eject mechanism, and signal interface means. Thus, the assembly is to be regarded as a separate, exchangeable unit.

Dispensing assembly

An assembly for dispensing droplets of a viscous medium. The assembly is releasably mountable in a machine using the assembly for providing a substrate with deposits. The assembly comprises an assembly holder having first holding portions mating with an assembly support of a docking device of the machine, a nozzle, an eject mechanism connected to the nozzle, a viscous medium container connected to the eject mechanism, an assembly property element holding information about properties of the assembly, and signal interface. Thus, the assembly is to be regarded as a separate, exchangeable unit.
