1. A method for screen printing of a material on a substrate, comprising:
moving a process head assembly having at least one deposition device from a first position to a second position to perform a stroke, wherein the movement of the process head assembly from the first position to the second position to perform the stroke includes at least a first phase for material processing of a material on a screen device using the at least one deposition device and a second phase for a material transfer from the screen device to the substrate, wherein in the first phase the material is moved by the at least one deposition device before the material transfer begins;
wherein the at least one deposition device moves in a first direction in the first phase;
wherein at least one device moves in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction in the first phase;
wherein the at least one deposition device and the at least one device simultaneously move during at least a part of the first phase; and
wherein the at least one device is selected from the group consisting of the at least one deposition device, a material processing device, the screen device, and a substrate support.
