Abstract:
A drawing apparatus includes a drawing head and a stirring unit. At least one drawing tool is held by the drawing head. The drawing tool includes a fluid material container to contain a fluid material and performs drawing on a drawing target with the fluid material. The stirring unit performs a stirring operation to stir the fluid material in the fluid material container of the drawing tool held by the drawing head by changing a tilt angle of the drawing tool.
Abstract:
According to one implementation, there is provided a drawing apparatus including a carriage, a cap member, and a holding/separating mechanism. The carriage holds a drawing tool including a tip. The cap member includes a tip receiving unit which covers and seals the tip. The holding/separating mechanism holds the tip of the drawing tool in a sealing state with the tip receiving unit when the drawing tool is placed in a standby position, and separates the tip of the drawing tool and the cap member from each other before starting the drawing. The holding/separating mechanism includes a move prevention member which is fixed to a certain position. The move prevention member comes into contact with the drawing tool so that the move prevention member prevents the drawing tool from moving in a direction that separates the tip from the cap member in the sealing state.
