D P L - 2 4 A Differential Pressure Laminator INTRODUCTION he DPL-24 Differential Pressure Laminator has been designed to give the operator a superior method for laminating sheet supported emulsions such as dry film solder mask, etc. Such materials can be applied to various thicknesses and sizes of substrates. -
Page 4: Overview
O P T E K D P L - 2 4 OVERVIEW • The vacuum is displayed on a thermocouple sensing, computer calibrated, digital gauge located on the front panel. • The substrate is exposed to this Vacuum Dwell for a time determined by a precision digital timer which is adjustable from .1 seconds to 9990 hours. -
Page 5: Principles Of Operation
The following is an explanation and diagram of the operation of the DPL-24 differential pressure laminator. When the DPL-24 is turned on, two proportional controllers independently drive the top and bottom heaters to the heat the diaphragm and platen to the temperatures set on the front panel. - Page 6 O P T E K D P L - 2 4 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (CONTINUED) When the cycle starts, vacuum is drawn on both ports, above and below the diaphragm. Utilizing a high volume vacuum pump, an end point approaching two Torr is achieved. This vacuum is displayed on a digital gauge located on the front panel.

O P T E K D P L - 2 4 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (CONTINUED) At the end of the pressure dwell cycle, the top port is connected to the vacuum pump again, and the bottom port is vented to atmospheric pressure. As shown in figure 4, this returns the diaphragm and drawer platen to their original positions and allows the drawer to be opened for unloading. -

O P T E K D P L - 2 4 SUBSTRATE SPECIFICATIONS Productivity: Cycle time is adjustable from 0 to infinity and is determined by application parameters such as circuit complexity, ground plane areas, circuit heights, flow temperatures, etc. Typical times for a dry-film solder mask application would be 30 seconds for Vacuum Dwell and 20 seconds for Pressure Dwell. -

2. Remove Tri-Wall cardboard box or wooden crating and inspect for damage to the machine itself. Do not attempt to slide the chamber drawer. 3. Using a forklift roughly place the DPL-24 utilizing the attached pallet, 4. Remove lower back panel 5. Remove the four bolts securing unit to pallet. - Page 10 Note: If the rotation is opposite to that indicated, reverse any two phases of incoming power. 19. Upon determination of proper pump rotation, leave pump mounted switch in “`ON” position. Your DPL-24 unit is now ready for operation.

O P T E K D P L - 2 4 PRECAUTIONS CAUTION: NEVER ATTEMPT TO REMOVE DRAWER FROM VESSEL WITH VACUUM PUMP OFF. EMERGENCY RESET BUTTON MUST BE DEPRESSED. IN STEPS OTHER THAN STEP 0, VACUUM IS APPLIED TO THE DOOR AND WITHDRAWAL IS IMPOSSIBLE. - Page 14 Normally, clean, filtered, dry air should be supplied to the machine. Filter Regulator - The DPL-24, however, has an additional filter incorporated into the primary regulator. This filter requires minimal maintenance.(Open petcock and drain out water occasionally! ) - The 50 Durometer, .125"...
