ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for producing intermittent, discrete patterns of coating material onto discrete irregular substrate areas, such as electronic circuit boards, where the patterns have sharp, square leading and trailing edges, as well as side edges. A slot nozzle die has elongated air slots along the slot extrusion opening. In the operation of the apparatus, the air flow is initiated from both air slots prior to the initiation of the coating material flow. Also, the air flow is continued beyond that point in time, when the coating material flow ceases. The delays between the operations of the air flow and the hot melt flow are on the order of micro seconds. Alternatively, the lead and lag air start and stop times on each side of the film of coating material are different to control the exact disposition of the square cut-on and square cut-off coating edge on the circuit board. The air flow carries the film coating material to the circuit board for deposition in discrete areas thereon. The sharp cut-on and cut-off accommodate multiple discrete area coating or multiple automated circuit board coating. Methods are disclosed.
