Today I would like to present Automatic Optic Inspection machines. These machines have become increasingly essential in the PCBs manufacturing process. Indeed, human control becoming too long and tedious, it makes more sense for a company to […]
How machinery works
PCB drilling and routing machines
In continuation of the presentation of the different steps of the manufacturing and assembly of the circuit boards, I would like to present today the drilling and routing phases. These last two are as important as the […]
The screen printing process in the production of printed circuit boards
The screen printing process is an integral part of the printed circuits boards’ manufacture in the electronics industry. Following the screen printing process, as mentioned in a previous article (“Surface mount devices: the pick-and-place machines”), the components […]
The mechanical compressors in all its forms
Let us concentrate on the principle of the mechanical compressor, auxiliary device that is very useful. A mechanical compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of the gas. The process is widely used in the […]
Laser cutting, how to choose your laser source
Laser cutting is a technique based on the presence of a laser usually for cutting parts of metal, wood or plastic. The laser works on the optical amplification via a resonator. Technically, it means that a part […]
The Stamping Process : Techniques and Use
The stamping technique is a manufacturing process which consists in shaping thin steel sheets named blank, thanks to a powerful drawing force. The process is based on the distortion of the surface, material that is not already […]
Knitting machines for socks: machines widely used
Even if it is not often known, used knitting machines for socks production have been used for more than one century. With the constantly increasing demand, they ease the production and make it very efficient. The most […]
How imagesetters work, principle of operation of these printing machines
Image-setter is an essential part of any publishing business because it converts digital text into the form that can be used on a printing press. Basically, it is a self-contained machine. The only work which needs to […]
Foundry machines definition: what can it be used for?
The foundry process works like this : metals are cast into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal in a mold, and removing the mold material or casting after the metal has solidified as it cools. […]
Sheetmetal machines definition: what can it be used for?
After giving you a definition of machine tools yesterday, today we are going to speak about sheetmetal machines. Sheet metal is simply metal formed into thin and flat pieces. It is one of the fundamental forms used […]
