  • Cartridge block for multilayer ceramic screening
    Patent number: 9283589
    Abstract: An assembly for screening a multilayer ceramic with a conductive paste includes a paste cartridge containing the conductive paste; a cartridge block, a top of a cartridge block being configured to receive the paste cartridge, the cartridge block comprising a paste routing section, the paste routing section comprising a flared section located at a bottom of the cartridge block; a pneumatic fitting attached to the paste cartridge, the pneumatic fitting configured to pressurize the conductive paste in the paste cartridge such that the conductive paste is extruded from the paste cartridge into the cartridge block through the paste routing section of the cartridge block by the pressure from the pneumatic fitting; and a nozzle connected to the flared section of the cartridge block, the nozzle configured to receive the conductive paste from the flared section, and screen the conductive paste onto the multilayer ceramic through the nozzle.
