METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING A STAMP FOR MICRO-CONTACT PRINTING TO A STAMPING ROLL

摘要

An apparatus to facilitate the application of a micro-contact printing stamp to a roll. The apparatus preferentially constrains some of the stamp's six degrees of freedom, and then drives the stamp (or the assembly of the stamp and the master against which it was formed) into controlled contact with the printing roll so as to attach the stamp onto the outer surface of the roll.
