R. Bennett Post subject: CNC Milling CU clad board for PCB prototype
fabrication Posted: Tue Feb 15, 2005 8:03 pm I am looking into purchasing
a Sharp 9x42 3-axis CNC mill. [/url]https://www.sharp-industries.com/specs/lmv.htm[url]
I have since been given further justification by hearing of other employees
desire to quickly fab RF-circuits on copper clad FR-4. Their are CNC
machines available specifically for this purpose, but I would like to
be able to accomplish the same job with a standard CNC mill. The only
advantage I know of to using a dedicated machine is that some of the
models out there have the option to add plated through holes on the
fly. Does anyone have any experiance in this area?[/url]

6 Location: Baltimore, Maryland I appreciate the thought that
I would be able help out on this, but the CNC milling machines that
we use are all LPKF made machines and are designed to actually mill
out circuitry. I have no idea if a standard CNC machine would
make a decent PCB board. Then again, I don't know any real reason why
it couldn't. I guess it all depends on the operator and the ability
to convert the routing data to a machine language that the CNC mill
interface box understands. As for plating holes on the fly, I
only wish it was that easy. _________________ www.procyonpcb.com
