Patent EP-0359229-A3 (EP)
Title: Vacuum contact printing apparatus for exposing an original image on a photosensitive material in contact with an original film under vacuum and a method therefor
IPC: G03F7/20
Filed: 1989-09-13
Abstract: A vacuum contact printing apparatus including: a 
transparent plate on which an original film (14) and a 
photosensitive material (16) are placed, an overlay sheet (24) which 
covers the transparent plate (10), a friction reducing sheet (36) 
provided between the transparent plate and the overlay 
sheet, and an evacuating device (28) for removing the air 
between the overlay sheet (24) and the transparent plate (10). The 
transparent plate is covered with the friction reducing 
sheet prior to or simultaneously with the covering of the 
original film and photosensitive material placed on the 
transparent plate with the overlay sheet. Frictional 
force caused by the change of the form of the overlay 
sheet can be prevented from being applied to the 
photosensitive material because the overlay sheet smoothly 
slides on the friction reducing sheet.
