Making pcb with laminator.

So i decided to hack the laminator by slowing down its rolls motor using a triac controller. Instead of laminating the pcb in 10 even 20 passes the motor is switched on 1 2 second then off 10 seconds off times of 3s 6 s can also be selected. Get it as soon as thu oct 1. These pathways are etched from copper sheets.

Why a laminator is superior over the use of a house hold iron. To ensure that the copper layer does not conduct a signal or current it is laminated into a substrate. Pcbs have conductive pathways through which different components are connected across the board. Some laminator we can used as they are because they provide enough temperature power.

To get a toner printed image to transfer to a metal surface pcb copper laminate or other metals for chemical milling we have 3 variables to control. If the laminator is not providing enough big temperature then we have to. For this step we need laminator. After long searches on the internet i heard about the pcb laminator and how a lot of people use it with great success.

This was the first use of my laminator and i put pcb 4 10 times and it looks quite ok. That s about the right amount of heat for the toner to fuse and stick to the copper. Here you can see how it s done. Pcb laminator on the cheap.

Unfortunately this model is not produced anymore but you can buy other brands. Click here to jump to the video presentation. A printed circuit board pcb is a structure used to connect and support electronic components.

Lamination process of making pcb is very easy and cheap but the most important is that is not nasty process.
