Method and apparatus for variable speed material deposition

摘要

This invention provides for methods and apparatus for increasing the speed of material deposition by a blade element traversing across an apertured mask. The invention involves varying the velocity of the blade element as it sweeps across different sections of the apertured mask. Varying the sweep velocity of the blade element allows for increases in the average speed of material deposition while retaining precision in the application of material deposited through the apertured mask.
