Abstract

In a screen-printing apparatus for printing creamy solder paste on a substrate by attaching a screen mask to the substrate, a predetermined measuring position of the mechanisms in the screen-printing apparatus is measured three-dimensionally by a three-dimensional measuring device. Based on the measured result, a predetermined measuring point on an object to be measured is determined on a position relative to the origin of the mechanical coordinate system in the screen-printing apparatus, and the origin position on a control program can be set. As a result, machine adjusting operation and teaching operation in the screen-printing apparatus can be simplified with high accuracy.
