Project topic: Automation of PCB throuh hole plating machine.

It was started as Fab Academy 2017 final project and in continuation to that will be modified to better version. University of Oulu has a pcb prototype manufacturing line and one of the processes is through hole plating. It is simple 5 step electrochemical process witch requires the operator to move plank pcb from one step to another in every 2-7 minutes. To free the operator for more productive work, machine is to automated. Automation will save operators time and better the throughput of pcb blacks.
