METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING FLUX

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for applying flux which can precisely apply the desired amount of flux per unit area of a board. SOLUTION: The required amount of flux per unit area of a board W, the transfer speed of the board W, and the width of the board W are input to an input means 21. A computing control section 24 computes the flow of flux required for a nozzle 17 from these input data to control a pump 25. The pump 25 transfers the flow of flux computed by the computing control section 24 to the nozzle 17. The input means 21 comprises a touch panel 22, and also a width-measuring section 23 which automatically inputs the width of the board W. The width-measuring section 23 automatically measures the width of a conveyer, which is adjustable according to the width of the board W to compute the size of the width of the board W and fetches it.
