AI Technical Summary
In PCB manufacturing, deviation is prone to occur during the drilling of short slots, especially when the ratio of slot length to slot width is small. The substrate is suspended during the drilling process, causing the drill bit to deviate and affecting the drilling accuracy.
The guide holes are designed in the short slot, including the first guide hole and the second guide hole. The position and size design of the guide holes ensure that the drill bit is subjected to balanced force during the machining process. The offset is reduced by a specific drilling sequence. The specific steps include drilling the second guide hole first, drilling the first guide hole, and finally drilling the short slot.
By designing the guide hole, the reaction force from the substrate opposite to the direction of rotation experienced by the drill bit during processing is reduced, ensuring drilling accuracy and improving drilling quality.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of PCB drilling processing, in particular to a method for preventing short slot hole deviation in PCB drilling. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, in the production of PCB, the problem of short slot hole deviation in drilling processing has always existed, which is due to:
[0003] Referring to the attached Figure 1 , it is a short slot hole pattern, and the general form is an ellipse. When the ratio of the slot length to the slot width is <2, it is called a short slot hole. When this kind of short slot hole is processed by drilling, because the shape of the drill bit is circular, an ellipse-shaped short slot hole is processed by using the method of stacking circular holes. As shown in the attached Figure 2 , two circular holes are used for stacking, Figure 2 , the first circular hole a and the second circular hole b in the attached represent the positions of different circular holes in drilling.
[0004] Referring to the attached Figure 3 , when Figure 3 the first circular hole a is drilled, the position of the second circular hole b to be drilled will have a suspended part (non-shaded area). When the drill bit is processing the position of the second circular hole b, because part of the substrate is in a suspended state, the drill bit will be stressed, thereby causing deviation problems, as shown in the attached Figure 4 . Referring to the attached Figure 5 , it is the state of the substrate surface when the second circular hole b is drilled. The blank part is the suspended part of the substrate, and the shaded part is the substrate entity. When the second circular hole b is drilled, the drill bit will be subjected to the reaction force F of the substrate entity in the shaded part, i.e. F is the reaction force of the substrate on the drill bit. Because the rotation direction of the drill spindle is clockwise, the second circular hole b will finally deviate in the counterclockwise direction.
[0005] At the same time, the problem of short slot hole deviation becomes more and more serious with the decrease of the ratio of the slot length to the slot width and the increase of the number of stacked boards in the drilling process. And at present, the design of short slot holes in PCB processing is gradually increasing.
[0006] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY
[0007] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the present application provides a method for preventing short slot hole deviation in PCB drilling, which adds a guide hole in the short slot hole to reduce the uneven stress of the drill bit in the processing process and improve the problem of short slot hole deviation.
[0008] The technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve its technical problems is:
[0009] A method for preventing the deviation of a short slot hole in PCB drilling, comprising the following steps:
[0010] Step 1, drilling design: design a first guide hole and a second guide hole which need to be drilled in advance on the short slot hole which needs to be drilled:
[0011] Wherein, the first guide hole is a long slot hole, the center of the first guide hole coincides with the center of the short slot hole, and the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the first guide hole and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole is not less than 2 mil; the second guide hole is a circular hole, including at least two pairs, and symmetrically arranged between the outer peripheral edge of the first guide hole and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole, the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the second guide hole and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole is not less than 1 mil;
[0012] Step 2, drilling sequence: first drill several pairs of second guide holes designed according to step 1 in the short slot hole which needs to be drilled, then drill the first guide hole by superimposing the circular hole, and finally drill the short slot hole by superimposing the circular hole.
[0013] As a further improvement of the present application, the slot width of the first guide hole, i.e. the long slot hole, is equal to half of the slot width of the short slot hole, and the slot length of the first guide hole is less than the slot length of the short slot hole.
[0014] As a further improvement of the present application, the second guide hole is two pairs, and the two pairs partially overlap.
[0015] As a further improvement of the present application, the straight line passing through the centers of the first guide hole and the short slot hole passes through the centers of the second guide hole of the pair of second guide holes arranged oppositely.
[0016] As a further improvement of the present application, the ratio of the slot length to the slot width of the short slot hole is 1.2.
[0017] The beneficial effects of the present application are: by setting two types of guide holes, the present application reduces or avoids the action force of the substrate on the drill bit in the opposite direction of the rotation direction, thereby overcoming the deviation caused by the reaction of the substrate on the drill bit in the drilling process in the prior art, to ensure the accuracy of drilling and improve the quality of drilling.

[0032] The preferred embodiment of the present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] A method for preventing the offset of a short slot hole in PCB drilling, comprising the following steps:
[0034] Step 1, refer to Figure 6 Drill hole design: design the first guide hole 1 and the second guide hole 2 that need to be drilled in advance on the short slot hole 10 that needs to be drilled, and this embodiment takes the ratio of the slot length to the slot width of the short slot hole as 1.2 as an example:
[0035] The first guide hole 1 is a long slot hole, the center of the first guide hole 1 coincides with the center of the short slot hole 10, the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the first guide hole 1 and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole 10 is not less than 2 mil, and the embodiment is taken as an example for illustration; the slot width of the first guide hole 1, i.e. the long slot hole, is equal to half of the slot width of the short slot hole 10, and the slot length of the first guide hole 1 is less than the slot length of the short slot hole 10.
[0036] The second guide hole 2 is a circular hole, includes at least two pairs, and is symmetrically arranged between the outer peripheral edge of the first guide hole 1 and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole 10, the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the second guide hole and the inner peripheral edge of the short slot hole 10 is not less than 1 mil; the second guide hole 2 of the embodiment is provided as two pairs, and the two pairs partially overlap, and the straight line passing through the centers of the first guide hole 1 and the short slot hole 10 is arranged opposite to the pair of second guide holes 2.
[0037] Step 2, drilling sequence:
[0038] First, drill several pairs of second guide holes 2 according to the design of step 1 in the short slot hole 10 to be drilled, refer to the attached Figure 7 ;
[0039] Then, drill the first guide hole 1 by the way of superimposed circular holes, refer to Figure 8 , Figure 9 ;
[0040] Finally, drill the short slot hole 10 by the way of superimposed circular holes, refer to Figure 10 , that is, the short slot hole of the application is obtained.
[0041] In the drilling method of the application, the second guide hole 2 (circular hole) is drilled first, which can reduce the area of the substrate entity in the Figure 11 shadow area.
[0042] In the second step of the drilling sequence, the long slot hole as the first guide hole 1 forms the final guide hole of the short slot hole 10, and plays a positioning role.
[0043] Referring to the attached Figure 12 , the force analysis of the drill bit when drilling the first circular hole a of the short slot hole 10 of the application can be seen, at this time, the drill bit is mainly subjected to the action force of the substrate in two directions, and the two kinds of action forces are opposite, so that the drill bit can be ensured not to deviate.
[0044] Referring to the attached Figure 13 , the force analysis of the drill bit when drilling the second circular hole b of the short slot hole 10 of the application can be seen, at this time, the reaction force given by the substrate is consistent with the rotation direction of the drill bit, so that subsequent deviation will not occur.
[0045] Therefore, the application reduces or avoids the force of the base material in the opposite direction of the rotation direction of the drill bit during the processing of the drill bit, so as to overcome the deviation caused by the reaction of the base material to the drill bit during the drilling processing, ensure the accuracy of the drilling, and improve the drilling quality.
