Abstract: A paste application apparatus including a Y-axis table, a Y-axis movement mechanism, a head mechanism main unit, and a syringe. The Y-axis movement table is configured to place a substrate thereon and to be capable of moving the substrate in a Y-axis direction. The Y-axis movement mechanism extends in the Y-axis direction. The head mechanism main unit extends in an X-axis direction and is moveable in the Y-axis direction by the Y-axis movement mechanism. The syringe is provided on the head mechanism main unit. The syringe is disposed above the substrate and is rendered movable in the X-axis direction. The application of paste contained in the syringe to a surface of the substrate is made by relative movement of the syringe and the substrate.

Abstract: An applying apparatus, which applies paste in a preset pattern to a substrate, includes a stage having a holding surface on which the substrate is placed, a beam member extending above the stage in a direction along the holding surface, a moving device which relatively moves the beam member and the stage in a direction along the holding surface and perpendicular to the extending direction of the beam member, a guide member provided on the beam member and along the extending direction of the beam member, an applying head which is supported by the guide member and movable along the guide member, and a plurality of suction nozzles which are provided along the guide member and suck air in the vicinity of the guide member.
