System for fabricating an inkjet printhead

摘要

A system for fabricating an inkjet printhead that includes an apparatus for depositing a protective coating on an aperture plate unit, the aperture plate unit including a plurality of outlet apertures in the aperture plate unit, the apparatus including a protective coating source and a protective coating dispensing device, and a processor that is programmed to control an automated process for coating an inner surface of each of the plurality of outlet apertures with the protective coating. The protective coating dispensing device coats the inner surface of each of the plurality of outlet apertures by dispensing a measured amount of the protective coating to completely clog each of the plurality of outlet apertures by at least one of spraying the aperture plate unit with the protective coating and rolling the protective coating onto the aperture plate unit.
