Background of The Study

This document provides background information on printed circuit boards and discusses the motivation for developing an automatic PCB milling and engraving machine. It notes that creating PCBs can be time-consuming and require precision. The proposed machine would use an image from EAGLE software to automatically determine drill holes and layout, milling the board using an Arduino Uno for control. This is intended to reduce time and labor while increasing accuracy for small-scale industries.

Background of the Study

A. Introduction

Sometimes to make a PCB, we required more time for designing, printing, etching as

well as drilling.

In electronics one of the key concepts is the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). A printed

circuit board is a copper sheet coated on a non-conductive substrate use to electrically connect

and mechanically support the components mounted in it.

Making a PCB is an involving process that those who are involved in an electronic

industry must have to go through. Among its many tasks are the act of etching using a corrosive

chemical with maximum safety and the act of drilling holes which needs precision and patience.

The number of components needed to make the PCB together with its escalating grow in demand

can lead to countless frustrations among the laborers which can have a significant effect on the

production efficiency in mass scale production.

The idea of this project is for the researchers to develop a low cost and user friendly PCB

milling and engraving machine such that it can be preferred by small scale industries to reduce

time and labor required and to increase accuracy and precision of making a PCB.

In this paper, the design of a PCB milling and engraving machine, where the drill holes

and the layout are automatically find out from an image of the circuit in EAGLE software. This

paper focuses on the design and implementation of automatic PCB milling and drilling machine

using ARDUINO UNO. Further the drilling machine uses path planning through co-ordinate

measurement machine method which is used to make the system more stable and accurate.
