This is a technology originally developed by Minami whereby the solder paste contacts closely with the PCB/substrate.
Air bags are inflated within a completely sealed chamber. The pressurized printing brings the following effects.
■Improved adhesion between the work and the paste
■Effect of pushing the paste out of the mask.
■Flexibility of paste design
It allows the use of low viscosity fluid, such as the dilatant fluid, in addition to the non-Bingham fluid which has been the main stream of conventional paste for screen printing.
You can see that pressurizing results in improved stability of printing even in the case of a paste which could hardly be transferred without pressure or a work not suitable for uniform printing.
