Abstract
A temperature controlling apparatus includes a platen, a fluid source that supplies a fluid, a first conduit, a second conduit, and a plurality of outlet thermal sensors. The first conduit includes a first inlet, a first outlet, and a first heater configured to heat the fluid to a first heating temperature. The fluid having the first heating temperature is dispensed on the platen through the first outlet. The second conduit includes a second inlet, a second outlet and a second heater configured to heat the fluid to a second heating temperature different from the first heating temperature. The fluid having the second heating temperature is dispensed on the platen through the second outlet. The outlet thermal sensors are disposed at the first outlet and the second outlet to sense temperature of the fluid dispensed from the first outlet and the second outlet respectively.
