As the print carriage drives the system across the stencil, the constant system pressure and the enclosed design of the transfer head ensures minimum wastage and maximum environmental protection of the print medium
The detachable transfer head is available in both 300mm or 400mm
configurations; this provides effective coverage for different sized substrates,
as well as optimal print medium application

Trang 5System Pressure The System Pressure is a programmable parameter that controls the contact
pressure of the transfer head against the stencil As the transfer head moves across the surface of the stencil, it must have enough downwards pressure to:
• Ensure that the side skis and wipers provide the enclosed environment which prevents any print medium leakage
• Allow the trailing wiper to remove the excess print medium from the surface
of the stencil during printing
The system pressure is maintained by a Z-axis stepper motor which lowers and raises the ProFlow ATx system Based on a preset parameter, the motor turns a leadscrew that precisely positions the transfer head’s wipers and skis against the stencil
NOTE
It is important for the transfer head to be aligned correctly as the system pressure is directed down through the centre of the transfer head.

Print Medium
Trang 6Print Medium
Pressure
Two pneumatically driven print medium pressure pistons are located on top of the transfer head; during conditioning and printing these pistons exert an even downwards force on the crosshead piston
As it presses down on the print medium, the seal on the crosshead printer flares out creating a pressurised environment within the conditioning chamber This flaring prevents any print medium from leaking past the seal

During the procedure, the print rails remain raised to support the transfer head, and system pressure is applied to the ProFlow ATx system to prevent any leakage The print medium pressure is reversed, which raises the crosshead piston and creates a void in the conditioning chamber
Pneumatic pressure is applied to the print medium cartridge to drive print medium to the head of the Archimedes screw which rotates for the pre-programmed amount of revolutions These actions deliver the print medium into the conditioning chamber, and the rotating conditioning grid prepares and distributes the print medium ready for application

Next, the Archimedes screw and conditioning grid stop rotating, the system pressure is relaxed, and print medium idle pressure is applied
The system is now ready to resume the print cycle
NOTE Charging and recharging the transfer head is an automatic process and requires no intervention from the machine operator.

Covers
The ProFlow ATx system ships with two cover options for the transfer head:
• Base Cover - Protects the wiper blades, skis and print medium during prolonged storage (more than one hour)
• Protective Cover - Provides protection to the wiper blades, skis and the operator during short-term operations, including fitting and removal

ADJUSTMENTS & SETTINGS
The transfer head fits between the and left hand and right hand mount brackets, which feature two spring-release thumbscrews
To adjust the mounts, carry out the following:
1 Turn the thumbscrew anti-clockwise until the thread is clear of the screw hole
2 Pull the thumbscrew away from the mount beam
3 Slide the mount bracket left or right along the mount beam until its position matches the width of the transfer head to be fitted
4 Release the thumbscrew so the thread engages in the screw hole
5 Turn the thumbscrew clockwise to secure the mount to the mount beam
NOTE
A size guide can be found on the left side of the mount assembly beam For more information on setting the transfer head size on the mount, see the section Replacement Procedures, Fitting the Transfer Head.

Trang 16Adjusting the
Stencil Support
When the adjustable stencil support is in the closed position it is set 81mm; this dimension matches the height of the magnetic tooling pins To provide support for the stencil, the stencil support height must be increased by the thickness of the circuit board
To set the stencil support to the correct height, carry out the following:
1 Loosen the 7mm hexagonal securing nut
2 Slide the adjustable tooling top upwards to separate the tooling top from the tooling bottom
3 Position two of the circuit boards to be printed between the top and bottom faces of the stencil support
4 Readjust the tooling stencil support
5 Tighten the 7mm nut to secure the tooling top and bottom in position
6 Remove the two circuit boards
The support is now set to 81mm, plus the thickness of circuit board
NOTE For further information, refer to the Board Support Tooling chapter of the printer’s Technical Reference Manual.

Trang 20Configuring the
Print Medium
Demand Sensor
The print medium demand sensor detects when the level of the print medium
in the transfer head is low For an accurate reading, the bottom of the sensor must be positioned no more than 5mm (+/- 1mm) above the transfer head’s top plate
To adjust the height of the print medium demand sensor, carry out the following:
1 Loosen the screw on the print medium demand sensor, using a jeweller’s flat head screwdriver
2 Adjust the bottom edge of the demand sensor so that it sits 5mm (+/- 1mm) above the level of the transfer head’s top plate
3 Tighten the screw on the print medium demand sensor, using the jeweller’s flat head screwdriver
5mm +/- 1mm

Trang 21The base cover option is used for prolonged storage of the transfer head It protects the wiper blades and skis from damage, and protects the print medium from environment To fit the base cover, carry out the following:
1 Loosen the right hand side retaining screw and ease the dowelled side plate away from the base-plate of the cover; do not fully remove the side plate
2 Fit the base cover to the transfer head:
a Fit the left side of the base cover over the transfer head’s left hand side locator dowel
b Fit the right side of the base cover to the transfer head’s right hand side locator dowel
NOTE Apply pressure to squeeze the transfer head’s wiper blades and the base cover together; this action eases the fitting process.

Separating the Base
Cover
To separate the base cover from the transfer head, carry out the following:
1 Loosen the retaining screw on the right hand side of the base cover; do not fully remove the screw
2 Pull the right hand end plate of the base cover away from the transfer head, but do not fully remove it; ensure the top of the right hand locator dowel remains tight against the base cover’s end plate
3 Slide the transfer head out of the base cover
NOTE
It is important to keep base cover’s right hand end plate in place This keeps the wiper blades in contract with the base cover; this action prevents the print medium from smearing during the separation process

Trang 231 Ensure the two locking clips on the protective cover are unlocked; they should be loose.
2 Fit the protective cover to the transfer head by inserting the locking pins into the two protective cover mounts located on the top of the transfer head
3 Flip the locking clips upwards to lock the protective cover in place
