PCB Technical - Instructions for circuit board processing equipment

The equipment for processing fast printed circuit boards is "printed circuit board stencil machine", short for "stencil machine". Due to the large number of similar device names and different performance in the market, it is easy to confuse customers who really need PCB. Therefore, it is necessary to make some explanations for this.

There are many names on the market for engraving machine-type equipment - engraving machine, PCB engraving machine, engraving machine, circuit board engraving machine, circuit board engraving machine, circuit board engraving machine, PCB board making machine, template processing machine, circuit board processing machine, circuit board comprehensive processing machine, PCB board cutting machine and even such names as "engraving machine".

Many people regard "sculptors" used in the fields of advertising, seals, moulds, furniture, advertising decoration and craftsmanship as one thing and "stencil machines" used in the field of electronic microwave communications as processing equipment in different fields. There are many differences between them. The main difference is in the processing accuracy, the former being in tens of microns and the latter at several micron levels or even smaller. For processing materials, the former is suitable for carving PVC, acrylic, wood, marble and other materials, while the latter is more suitable for making various copper clad circuit boards. In terms of power, the former is generally larger; The types of tools used are also different. The former has more types and larger sizes, while the latter is 1/8 of the standard. "Handle diameter; There are also many differences in the control of the motor and the motion system used by the other two devices. Generally speaking, PCB stencil maker is the hardware component of the NC processing center applied in the field of electronic manufacturing. It and other hardware systems, as well as CAM software systems, constitute the peripheral CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) system of the EDA/CAD design system.

There are also different names for the cutters used in the stencil machine, which can be divided into two types according to the processing method - "spiral drill" and "milling cutter", "V-line milling cutter" and "End Mill", which are mainly used to strip off surface copper or other materials, and "outline milling cutter". Other names such as "carving knife", "carving knife", "cutting knife", "drill pin", "digging knife" are similar to the ones we use to make printed circuit board.
