摘要: The invention relates to a laminating apparatus for laminating a printhead integrated circuit (IC) carrier sub-assembly and a lamination film. The apparatus includes a lamination support for receiving the carrier, a lamina supply for supplying a lamina defining said lamination film, and an alignment mechanism configured to align the lamination film with the IC carrier sub- assembly. Also included is a bonding apparatus configured to bond the lamination film to the IC carrier sub-assembly, and a control system to control operation of the lamina supply, alignment mechanism and bonding apparatus to facilitate automatic bonding of the lamination film to the surface of the carrier.

摘要: The present invention relates to a bonding device for bonding a flexible printed circuit board (PCB) to a printhead assembly. The printhead assembly includes a printhead carrier and an ink ejection printhead carried by the carrier. The bonding device includes a support structure assembly and a first heater assembly arranged on the support structure assembly to be movable along a first path and configured to bond the flexible PCB to the printhead. A bending mechanism is arranged on the support structure and is configured to bend the bonded PCB. A second heater assembly is arranged on the support structure assembly to be movable along a second path and is configured to bond the bent PCB to the printhead carrier. A control system controls operation of the heater assemblies and the bending mechanism.
