Abstract
With a substantially intermediate position as a starting point, a syringe is reciprocated in an X-axial direction with a given reciprocation range by a plurality of times, and a stringiness portion that hangs down from a paste discharge port toward a mask plate is cut off in an intermediate portion thereof. The syringe is traveled to the substantially intermediate position, and with this position as a starting point, the syringe is reciprocated with a reciprocation range smaller than the reciprocation range of the paste cutting operation, and a part of the residual paste hanging from the paste shakes off downward. The syringe is traveled in an end direction of a guide member side, the syringe is rotated about an axial line, and translated into a horizontal storage posture.
Claims4
A paste supply method of discharging a paste from a paste supply syringe having a paste discharge port directed downward to supply the paste onto an upper surface of a paste supply object, and thereafter rotating the paste supply syringe so that the paste discharge port is directed in a horizontal direction to store the paste supply syringe, the paste supply method comprising:
- a paste cutting step of, after discharging the paste, reciprocating the paste supply syringe having the paste discharge port directed downward in the horizontal direction with a given range of reciprocation by a plurality of times to cut off the paste that hangs down from the paste discharge port toward the mask plate in an intermediate portion thereof;
- and
- a paste shaking-off step of, after cutting off the paste, reciprocating the paste supply syringe with a range of reciprocation smaller than that at the time of cutting off the paste by a plurality of times to shake off the residual hanging paste from the paste discharge port.
