This works by lining up the board manually, then stepping on a pedal to activate the plunging motion of the drill. A linear motor is responsible for the smooth, accurate motion along the Z-axis.

It’s the prefect size for working with circuit boards, and worlds better than any high-speed rotary tool we’ve had the displeasure of using. The drilling action is very smooth, and the motor ...

ECM President and CEO Brian Casey discusses how PCB PrintStator software can reduce design cycle time on axial flux motors.

As demand for next-generation semiconductor chips grows, a team of researchers has succeeded in laser-drilling the world's tiniest circuit board holes, measuring a near-inconceivable 3 micrometers ...
