Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit board processing technology, specifically to an inner layer developing, etching, and stripping machine. Background Technology
[0002] In the inner layer processing of multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs), key processes such as development, etching, and film removal must be completed sequentially to form high-precision inner layer circuitry.
[0003] Traditional processing equipment suffers from fragmented processes and independent operation of each processing unit, resulting in long transfer times between processes for the boards. Furthermore, the parameters of each unit (such as spray pressure, processing time, and cleaning effect) are difficult to control collaboratively, leading to uneven line accuracy, low production efficiency, and poor quality stability. At the same time, traditional equipment lacks a centralized control system, making real-time monitoring and remote maintenance difficult, further hindering the intelligent and large-scale production of inner layers in multilayer boards. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an inner layer developing, etching, and stripping machine, which solves the problems of low production efficiency, insufficient processing accuracy, and inconvenient control caused by the dispersed processes and poor coordination of existing inner layer developing, etching, and stripping equipment.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: an inner layer developing, etching, and stripping machine, comprising a board feeding unit, a developing unit, a new liquid washing unit, a first overflow water washing unit, a first inspection unit, a vacuum etching unit, a two-fluid vacuum etching unit, a water-stop washing unit, a second overflow water washing unit, a second inspection unit, a stripping unit, a third overflow water washing unit, an acid washing unit, a fourth overflow water washing unit, a dry board assembly unit, and a board output unit, connected in sequence. It also includes a conveyor system that runs through the units, as well as a control system for controlling the operation of the equipment.
[0006] Preferably, the conveying system includes several conveying rollers with a diameter of 32mm and a wheelbase of 25mm. The conveying surface height of the conveying rollers is 1100mm±25mm, the conveying surface width is 860mm, the effective conveying width is 750mm, and the conveying speed can be adjusted within the range of 1.0~7.0 meters / minute.
[0007] Preferably, the control system includes a PLC controller, which is equipped with a central networking function and an Ethernet interface.
[0008] Preferably, the developing unit includes at least two developing tanks, each of which is equipped with a spray assembly, and the spray pressure of the spray assembly is 1.5~2.5 kgf / cm².
[0009] Preferably, the vacuum etching unit includes at least three vacuum etching tanks, each of which is equipped with a spraying component with a spraying pressure of 1.0~2.5 kgf / cm².
[0010] Preferably, the film removal unit includes at least three film removal grooves, and each film removal groove is equipped with a spraying component with a spraying pressure of 1.0~2.8 kgf / cm².
[0011] Preferably, the first overflow washing unit, the second overflow washing unit, the third overflow washing unit, and the fourth overflow washing unit each include several washing tanks and are equipped with transparent filter barrels and mesh or cotton core filter components.
[0012] Preferably, the dry plate assembly unit includes a high-pressure air knife, a high-pressure hot air knife, and a HEPA filter.

This reduces the board transfer time and, combined with an adjustable conveyor speed of 1.0~7.0 meters / minute, significantly improves production efficiency.
[0016] 2. This inner layer developing, etching, and stripping machine uses rollers with a diameter of 32mm and a wheelbase of 25mm in its conveying system.
