    摘要: A component mounting system for mounting a component on a substrate, the mounting system comprising a component supplying unit configured to supply the component; a substrate holding unit configured to hold the substrate in an orientation such that a mounting face for mounting the component on the substrate is facing vertically downward; a head configured to hold the component from vertically below; and a head drive unit that, by causing vertically upward movement of the head holding the component, causes the head to approach the substrate holding unit to mount the component on the mounting face of the substrate.

    摘要: An imprint apparatus including an irradiation unit configured to irradiate a peripheral region of a pattern region of a mold with light while the mold is in contact with an imprint material on a substrate so as to make a polymerization degree of the imprint material between the peripheral region and the substrate fall within a range higher than a polymerization degree in an initial state when the imprint material is supplied onto the substrate and lower than a polymerization degree in a final state when the imprint material is cured, and a control unit configured to control, for each shot region on the substrate, a value of a second parameter for controlling irradiation with the light from the irradiation unit based on a value of a first parameter for controlling a contact step.

    摘要: A hot-pressing tool mounted on a press and operable under a controlled atmosphere, a method for implementing such a hot-pressing tool, and a facility for manufacturing objects that includes such a hot-pressing tool. The tool includes a first tool portion having a first fastening device to fasten onto a first platen, a second tool portion having a second fastening device to fasten onto a second platen. The first fastening device and the second fastening device are mobile with respect to one another to define a pressing chamber having an inner volume which is heated via a heating device. The first fastening device and the second fastening device each respectively have a pressing member to exert a pressing force on opposite faces of an object to be pressed in the pressing chamber. The heating device is to heat via optical radiation that is concentrated on the object via a concentration device.

    摘要: A first tooling die and a second tooling die are movable with respect to each other. The first tooling die and the second tooling die form a die cavity. The first tooling die and the second tooling die comprise a plurality of stacked metal sheets. A plurality of air gaps is defined between adjacent stacked metal sheets. A first smart susceptor material is within the die cavity and connected to the first tooling die. The first smart susceptor material has a first Curie temperature. A second smart susceptor material is within the die cavity and associated with the second tooling die. The second smart susceptor material has a second Curie temperature lower than the first Curie temperature. A flexible membrane is between the second tooling die and the first smart susceptor material. The flexible membrane is configured to receive pressure.

    摘要: An optical forming device includes a light source to emit light for causing liquid photocurable resin to undergo curing and an optical modulator to modulate the light for causing the liquid photocurable resin to undergo curing in a pattern based on a shape of a three-dimensional object, and irradiate the liquid photocurable resin with the modulated light. The optical modulator includes a liquid crystal device to modulate the light for causing the liquid photocurable resin to undergo curing in the pattern, and emit the modulated light as linearly polarized light and an optical retardation device to impart a phase difference to the linearly polarized light emitted from the liquid crystal device, and emit the light imparted with the phase difference.
