Paste Dispenser
Mechanism Option
The paste dispenser option is only utilized when the machine is fitted with
squeegees, and provides an automated paste dispensing facility during print
operations. Further information is detailed in the Paste Dispenser System
chapter of this manual.
Breakout Board E The PCB breakout board E is the signal interface between the machine controller
and assemblies fitted to the print carriage. Socket descriptions are detailed in
the table below. Further information on each assembly can be found in the
relevant module chapter of this manual.

Guide Rails The print carriage assembly is traversed across the screen via two linear guide
rails. Both guide rails are fixed in position to the machine printhead casting.
Carriage Rails The print carriage rails are a linear bearing type rail onto which the print carriage
is secured.
Print Carriage
Motor
The print carriage motor is a dc servo type motor with integral gearbox and
encoder. This motor is fitted at the rear right hand corner of the print carriage
rail system. The print carriage is driven through a pulley and timing belt system
located on the right hand side of the machine, (Drives and Sensors figure of this
chapter refers).
NOTE
Technical information on servo motors is detailed in the Sensors and Motors
chapter of this manual.
