CNC Machines
3 Axis CNC Milling Machine for home PCB Prototyping
my CNC machine for PCB fabrication has 3 Ball screw mechanisms, each mechanism represents direction of motion. all mechanisms driven by stepper motors controlled by Arduino UNO with GUI to import the universal g-code.
you can export G-code for your PCB image from any vector graphics editor like Inkscape. then, set your PCB chip on the CNC carriage. my machine moves your PCB on y direction and the milling tool on x, z directions according to G-code sent to it.
it's simple, clean operation that saves my money spent to fabricate PCBs.
CNCs are the most common automatic machines used in many industries with several tool types, powers and accuracies needed.
