Abstract:
An apparatus for processing a substrate on two sides comprising:an input pathway for receiving the substrate from a substrate processing system, the substrate having a first edge comprising a leading edge in a process direction and a first side in a face-up orientation; a print station positioned along a pathway of the apparatus for processing the face-up side of the substrate; a reversion pathway adapted to receive the substrate from the input pathway and invert the substrate and return the reverted substrate to the input pathway, wherein a second side of the substrate is in the face up orientation and the first edge is the leading edge; and a merge point for merging the reverted substrate into the input pathway for processing the face-up side of the substrate in the print station, wherein the input pathway, the reversion pathway and the merge point for a continuous pathway.
