Abstract

A screen printer that measures a tension of a mask in a machine, including a mask holding device configured to hold a mask; a board device configured to position a board from below with respect to the mask held by the mask holding device; a squeegee device configured to apply and spread a cream solder on an upper surface of the mask; a mask pressing device configured to press the mask at a set pressure by a pusher which is installed on an upper travelling device or a lower travelling device with respect to the mask; a mask measurement device, installed on the upper travelling device or the lower travelling device to be opposed to the pusher, which is configured to measure a height of the mask; and a tension measurement device configured to calculate a tension of the mask based on a measured value of the mask measurement device.
