Out of curiosity, what cnc machine are you using?
- gaze 7y agoNot OP, but I've had luck making PCBs on my Taig mill. Might want to choose something with ballscrews or at least preloaded nuts or potentially a belt drive. PCBs hate backlash, but don't constitute a high load.
- opencl 7y agoI have the Linksprite engraving machine[1], there are a bunch of companies selling the same design if you search for "CNC 1610" on any of the major e-tailer sites. It's called 1610 because the build area is 16x10cm, there are larger versions called 2418 and 3018. At the price point it's obviously the bargain basement model of the CNC world and the quality is not great. But it works fine for PCBs as long as you don't need super narrow traces, the backlash is surprisingly not terrible thanks to the preloaded nuts.
