Abstract
Provided are an apparatus for roll-to-roll manufacturing of semiconductor parts and a method of the roll-to-roll manufacturing. The apparatus includes a material supplying unit continuously supplying a material, a processing unit processing the material supplied by the material supplying unit, a transferring unit transferring the material, a tension adjusting unit adjusting tension of the material in a direction in which the material is being transferred; and a connection operating unit, which is disposed between the material supplying unit and the processing unit, attaching a leading board to a leading portion of the material.
Claims20
An apparatus for roll-to-roll processing of a material, the apparatus comprising:
- a material supplying unit that continuously supplies the material;
- a processing unit that processes the material supplied by the material supplying unit;
- a transferring unit that transfers the material along a path;
- a tension adjusting unit that adjusts tension of the material in a direction in which the material is being transferred;
- and
- a connection operating unit that is disposed between the material supplying unit and the processing unit and attaches a leading board to a leading portion of the material.
A roll-to-roll processing method comprising:
- connecting a leading board to a leading portion of a material supplied from a material supplying unit that supplies the material;
- applying predetermined processing to the material using a processing unit when the material led by the leading board is transferred in the processing unit along a path;
- extracting from the processing unit the material with the leading board connected to the leading portion of the material;
- and
- cutting the leading board from the leading portion of the material extracted from the processing unit.
A method of roll-to-roll processing of a material, the method comprising:
- supplying to a processing unit a first material uncoiled from a first roll for processing at the processing unit;
- connecting a leading board to a leading portion of the first material before the processing so that the first material led by the leading board is processed during transfer in the processing unit along a path;
- cutting the leading board from the leading portion of the first material after the processing;
- and
- if a terminal edge of the first material begins to be processed at the processing unit, connecting another leading board to a leading portion of a second material uncoiled from a second roll and supplying the second material to the processing unit for processing.
