  1. P14311: PCB Isolation Routing System Systems Design Review

  2. Agenda

  3. Team Introductions Our Senior Design Team

  4. Problem Statement • RIT students need rapid prototyping for creation of unique circuit boards • Requires multiple revisions to perfect each circuit board • Currently each iteration must be created off campus • Long lead times • Expensive • Limits circuit refinement • Students not involved in process

  5. Benchmarking- Scott Systems Isolation Router • Able to produce double-sided Board • Smallest bits used - .016” • Minimum width between traces - 5mm • Stepper control for Z-axis • Stepper control for X-Y movement • Alignment pins and double sided tape used to secure board • Sacrificial plastic layer • Uses an air gun to blow dust out during the drilling • PVC with shop-vac sucks up debris • Data Flow – Eagle design file G-codeFlashcut CNC  Motors

  6. Benchmarking- Scott Systems Isolation Router

  7. Pros, Cons, Potential Improvements • Pros: • Can etch double-sided boards • Easy to switch bits • 5mm minimum trace width • Cons: • System lacks real time feedback sensors • X,Y, and Z, axis alignment is done manually. • Improvements • Improve debris management • Replace or repair Z-axis motor • Enclose system

  8. Benchmarking- RIT Robotics Lab • Milling set-up is not used regularly because it’s a pain • Zeroing the plane is highly mechanical • Smallest tolerance is 10 mil • Floor of the mill is warped • Difficult to change drill bits • Interface software include expensive Isopro • Manual debris management • Utilizes two alignment pins • Board is secured down with tape

  9. Pros, Cons, Potential Improvements • Pros: • Relatively Inexpensive • Cons: • Difficult to swap bits • Poor board alignment process • Z-axis solenoid • Improvements • Debris management system • Z-axis zeroing

  20. Concept #1 X-Y axis Control of Spindle Assembly Vacuum Nest with Alignment Pins Spindle Assembly Cyclone Separator Electronic Waste Collection Upper and Lower Acrylic Guards Pressurized Air Nozzle Z axis Control of Base + Combination nozzle/vacuum with cyclone separator effectively manages debris + Straight forward design easy to understand + Vacuum nest and alignment pins ensure accuracy and repeatability - Minimal guards allow access to moving parts during operation - Difficult to relocate, much larger than Ryan’s and Rob’s systems - Large weight of gantry limits maximum accuracy - Redundant systems increase complexity

  21. Concept #2 +Collet for holding tooling + Suction debris removal +Alignment Template system - DC motors with encoders for X,Y,Z - Horizontal Vice for mounting

  22. Concept #6 + X- and Y-axis control using steppers and lead screws, which offers great resolution + Fully enclosed unit provides a much safer operating environment + Interlock would safely disconnect power in case of emergency/unit malfunction + Unit is overall very easy to use (assuming board is aligned) - Incineration not a feasible method of debris management - Rack and pinion Z-axis movement control would cause unnecessary backlash - Board alignment not very easily performed with electromagnets

  23. Hybrid Design

  24. Pugh Total Scores

  25. Hybrid Solution- Selected Concept Stepper Motor with Lead Screw for Z Axis Control Vacuum Attachment Spindle Motor and Collet Assembly Vacuum Clamp Sourced From Main Vacuum Pressurized Air Nozzle X and Z Axis Wire Management Debris Management Vacuum Assembly Stepper Motor with Lead Screw for X Axis Control Vacuum Clamping w/ Replaceable Sacrificial Layer Guide Rails Stepper Motor with Lead Screw for Y Axis Control

  26. Hybrid Solution- Selected Concept To Pressurized Air Source Acrylic Door Assembly To Vacuum Assembly with HEPA Filter Metal Casing Door Handle Emergency Kill Switch To Spindle VFD and X, Y, and Z Axis Stepper Motor Control Door Interlock

  27. System Block Diagram Interlock Computer Debris Management System GUI USB, serial, Ethernet, etc Main Logic Board Design file G-code Motor Theta Motor X USB, serial, Ethernet, etc Power conditioning Motor Y Motor Controller Power Source Motor Z

  28. Engineering Analysis – Vacuum Table • A system that creates negative pressure to hold down work pieces during machining • Will allow for easy set up by user • Work pieces will be held down after being cut • Collect debris being cut from board.

  29. Engineering Analysis – Vacuum Table

  30. Engineering Analysis – Spindle vs Router • High Speed (~25,000+ RPM) but with manual control • Large run out, not published as they are typically hobbyist and woodworking • Run directly from 120 VAC line power • Heat problem, not designed to be run continuously • Low average cost (Free - $200) • Brand specific collets • Loud Commercial Routers

  31. Engineering Analysis – Spindle vs Router • Low to Medium Speeds (usually 400 to 24,000 RPM) • Extremely low run out (typically less than 0.005mm/0.0002”) • Need an inverter (capable of producing 0-400Hz @240VAC) • Air or Water cooled options available • Higher average cost ($100 - $700) • Standardized collet sizes (ER11, ER20, R8, 3MT, etc.) • Quiet Spindle Motors

  32. Engineering Analysis – Spindle vs Router • Higher cost of spindle motor justified by advantages • Inverter vs. speed control, ~ equal complexity (VFD) • More professional look and results from spindle • Justifies laser centering upgrade in the future

  33. Engineering Analysis- Direct Material Cost Estimate

  34. Future Engineering Analysis • Weight analysis • Can the Z motor handle the weight of spindle? • Vacuum Analysis- • Can one shop vacuum both collect debris and secure board? • Does the vacuum have enough suction to keep the board secure while milling the outline?

  35. Potential Test Plans • PCB Trace Accuracy Analysis • Attach pen to Gantry to draw board on paper • Test movement of carriage • Check condition power
