Description
Summary:Fluid dispensing is a method by which fluid materials, such as epoxy, adhesive, and encapsulant, are delivered in a controlled manner in electronics packaging. This paper presents a brief review of past and recent developments in the modeling and control of the time-pressure fluid dispensing process. In particular, the characterization of the fluid flow behavior is addressed by reviewing several promising models from both time-independent and time-dependent perspectives. In the modeling of the time-pressure fluid dispensing process, various approaches for representing the flow rate of fluid dispensed and the profile of fluid formed on target are examined; and the issues involved are identified. In the control of time-pressure dispensing process, a brief review of various control methods is presented along with their limitations. The challenges associated with this control problem are also discussed. This paper is concluded with the recommendations of research in the future.
