Method and device for transporting an arrangement of flexible circuit substrates during the production of a laminate therefrom
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a device for transporting an arrangement of flexible circuit substrates produced on a transport substrate during the production of a laminate from the arranged circuit substrates, as well as—building thereon—a method and a device for producing a laminate of flexible circuit substrates. In the method, a film is applied to the arranged circuit substrates on the side thereof opposite the transport substrate, with the result that the film comes to lie over the transport substrate in at least two sections that are separate from each other and are not covered by a circuit substrate, and runs between them continuously over at least one of the circuit substrates. Then, the arranged circuit substrates are fixed on the transport substrate by means of the generation of a negative pressure acting on the arrangement of the circuit substrates, and which, at least in sections, directly impinges on the arrangement of the circuit substrates itself as well as, at least in sections, additionally on the film (6) and thereby in turn indirectly on at least one of the circuit substrates in the direction of the transport substrate with a pressing force with respect to the transport substrate. Then, the arrangement of circuit substrates fixed on the transport substrate by means of the pressing force is transported by moving the transport substrate. In the production method, the transport method is used for transporting the arrangement between individual manufacturing steps. The devices according to the invention are correspondingly arranged to carry out the above-mentioned method.
