Electronics Production

For the second week assignment, we had two tasks to explore the creation of PCB production from scratch using milling machine and soldering parts. I was using the Roland SRM-20 in the Arch shop. Firstly, the group assignment was to characterize the design rules for PCB production. I worked with Demircan, Zach, Kim and MQ from Arch department!

We used the CBA mods app to load the design, software. It was important to use the double tape to the board for a safe departure!

We learned how to change the parameters in the software (depth, offset etc) and coordinate the origin to our copper board.

For the individual assignment, I worked on the same process with the milling machine and mod app: 1/64 tool for the tracing and 1/32 to cut the board. in the mod software, i could see the preview of the cuts before, which helped a lot :)

soldering since it was my first time to be interduced to soldering, it was sterssful experiance but also quite relaxing to sit and concentrate on such small components. I gathered all the electronics parts and marked them accordingly to be able to pick up the right ones ( I had experiance with trying to remove it after soldering, not fun)
