The invention relates to the technical field of printed circuit boards, in particular to a mechanical drilling method based on a
copper thickness drilling split cutter. The method comprises the following steps: step 1, acquiring the total
copper thickness Htotal of a PCB laminated board, setting a drilling
copper thickness threshold H threshold, and enabling the H threshold to be smaller than the Htotal, step 2, acquiring parameters of each
drill hole in the PCB, counting the number of
drill holes corresponding to the same
drill hole
diameter, acquiring a drilling copper thickness value H actual corresponding to each
drill hole with the same hole
diameter, selecting a standard drill tool
diameter phi standard for the drill holes with the same hole diameter, and setting the drilling copper thickness threshold H threshold to be smaller than the Htotal; step 3, when the real H is greater than the threshold H, if the user selects to divide the tool, dividing the tool to enable the tool diameter of the drilling tool to meet the following condition: phi real = phi standard + m, and if the user does not select to divide the tool, keeping the original tool diameter unchanged and enabling phi real to be equal to phi standard; when the actual H is smaller than or equal to the threshold H, the original cutter diameter is kept unchanged; and 4, the drilling equipment uses different parameters to conduct drilling according to the cutter dividing data, high-quality drill holes can be drilled through the method, and the service life of the drilling cutter is effectively prolonged.
