    摘要: A printing system for printing substrates, in particular circuit boards, such as wafer and solar cells, has a printing device, with a printing table on which the substrate can be positioned and a print head associated with the printing table for printing the substrates positioned on the printing table, has a feed device for feeding the substrates to be printed to the printing device, a discharge device for discharging the printed substrates from the printing device, and a plurality of substrate supports on which each of the plurality of substrates can be supported. The feed device, printing device and discharge device convey the substrate supports with the substrates located thereon. The feed device collects plurality of substrate supports and feeds them to the printing device. The printing device prints the substrates on the collected substrate supports, and the discharge device separates and discharges these collected substrate supports.

    摘要: A printing pad machine that can print a 360 degree image on a cylindrical object. That objective is achieved by modifying a conventional printing pad machine. The modifications include using a single angled print pad having a contact wall having a first height, a lower wall having a second height that is less than the first height, an angled surface interconnecting the contact wall's distal end and the lower wall's distal end, and a base wall interconnecting the contact wall's proximal end and the lower wall's proximal end and connectable to a base. Another modification includes a flexion-extension hinge positioned between the support member and the base or the support member and the overhead gantry and controlled by the adjustable and moveable actuator system and power source. That objective can be accomplished with the conventional printing pad machine using the single angled print pad.
