Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to study and obtain the influence of resin and filler properties of printed circuit board (PCB) on the drilling force during micro drilling.

Design/methodology/approach

Experiments were carried out to study the influence of PCB on micro-hole drilling force under high spindle speed. A drilling force measurement system was applied, and then, the influence of resin and filler properties of PCBs on the force was analyzed. The proportion of resin and filler in the PCB was defined as four levels, and the influence of PCBs based on the drilling force measurement was summarized.

Findings

The drilling force decreased with the decrease in the feed rate, and lower filler (16-30 per cent) and average resin (31-50 per cent) would have a positive impact on the drilling force. At the same time, the size of uniform and fine fillers would help to reduce the drilling force.

Originality/value

The drilling force measurement system was applied, and the influence of PCBs on force was analyzed, which could provide a reference value on the optimization of the drilling force during micro drilling.
