PCB Drilling Machine

This was an attempt to make very precise PCB drilling machine.

Two stepper motor with minimum step of 1.5 Degrees to give about 240 steps in one rotation, to control x and y direction to place the PCB in a desired position
Electromagnet to actuate the drill downwards, when the placement of PCB is done.
Programmed ATMEGA8 Micro-controller for the desired actuation of the motors
One one rotation of motor the slide skids around 2 mm. We can move the base on which the PCB will be placed with a with a distance of around 1/240 mm precisely

Technology Used: Micro-controller controlled Stepper motors with mechanism that alows highly precise motion

Duration: 4 months

Led a team of 3 members

Following model can explain the details, we fabricated the model to certain extent
