A printed circuit board or PCB consists of conducting layers typically made of thin copper foil and insulating layers laminated together. Holes through a PCB are typically drilled with tiny drill bits made of solid tungsten carbide. This paper focuses on cutting forces of drilling PCB. The influences of cutting speeds, feed rate and drill diameter on thrust force are investigated. Finally the drilling force experimental formula’s mathematical model is derived.

Supported holes of Printed circuit board (PCB) are drilled with two different drill bits. Drilling force (thrust force and torque) and chip morphology are examined at different cutting parameters, and the effects of the two drills are discussed. The results indicate that the drilling force and chip morphology are affected by the feed rate, spindle speed and drill shape. Thrust force increases with the increasing feed rate, and decreases with the increasing spindle speed. Optimization of drill geometry can reduce the thrust force significantly, and is effective in chip breaking which can improve the chip evacuation during the drilling process.

This work is focused on the investigation of the influence of the materials of PCB, feed rate, spindle speed and tool wear on thrust force when drilling PCB using 0.3 mm diameter cemented tungsten carbide drills. The results indicate that thrust force increases with feed rate and drill wear, but decreases with spindle speed firstly and then increases with it within the cutting range tested. Thrust force caused by the copper foil is much larger than that caused by the epoxy glass fiber cloth when feed rate is low. However, the difference between them decreases as feed rate increases. The thickness of nail head increases with thrust force. The accuracy of hole location increases with thrust force firstly but decreases afterward. The influence of thrust force on hole wall roughness is not obvious.

With the development of high density, multi-functions, miniaturization and multi-layer on printed circuit board (PCB) design, great challenges have been presented to the miniaturization of drilling on PCB. In order to meet the hole precision, quality and improve the performance, efficiency of mechanical drilling, further research should be done on the cutting state. Kistler high-precision micro-force platform was used in this paper to test and analyze the cutting force, investigate the general laws of micro drilling, and optimize the parameters for HANS PCB drilling machine. Thereby, to improve the efficiency and precision of the drilling, range of processing, and increasing market competitiveness.

This paper presents a simple approach to selectively synthesize the ZnO nanowires between interdigitated electrodes by integrating the hydrothermal method with the photolithography process. The printed circuit board (PCB) was adopted as the substrate. Interdigitated electrodes were fabricated by etching the copper foil of PCB. Then, both the positive and negative photoresists were used to control the growth of nanowires through lift-off concept. No costly materials and expensive apparatuses are required. Biotin–streptavidin reaction was used as an example to examine this proposed device. When histidine-tagged biotin was added and the reaction of biotin–streptavidin was completed, the distinguishable I-V curves were detected, respectively. The experimental results reveal that this proposed device is sensitive.

Cutting force is one of the most important parameters in the drilling process of FPC (Flexible printed circuit board). It has a directly affect on the micro-drills’ life and the micro-holes quality. It causes the FPC delamination, pulling of the plastic, the burr of exit hole and other processing defects. In this paper, some experimental investigations of cutting force of high speed micro-drilling are carried out to improve the drilling quality of FPC. The results indicate that the drilling parameters(spindle speed, feed speed and drill-bit diameter) have significant influence on micro-drilling thrust force. The thrust force of drill copper foil is larger than the thrust force of drill adhesiver layer and the thrust force of drill PI layer is the smallest. The larger the thrust force is, the bigger the exit burr is.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study and obtain the influence of resin and filler properties of printed circuit board (PCB) on the drilling force during micro drilling. Design/methodology/approach Experiments were carried out to study the influence of PCB on micro-hole drilling force under high spindle speed. A drilling force measurement system was applied, and then, the influence of resin and filler properties of PCBs on the force was analyzed. The proportion of resin and filler in the PCB was defined as four levels, and the influence of PCBs based on the drilling force measurement was summarized. Findings The drilling force decreased with the decrease in the feed rate, and lower filler (16-30 per cent) and average resin (31-50 per cent) would have a positive impact on the drilling force. At the same time, the size of uniform and fine fillers would help to reduce the drilling force. Originality/value The drilling force measurement system was applied, and the influence of PCBs on force was analyzed, which could provide a reference value on the optimization of the drilling force during micro drilling.
