With CNC machines, one can assume the absolute accuracy as high as the control shows. Sometimes the theoretical resolution can be in fractions of the microns. But is it also as precise in reality? How does backlash compensation work? Where does the inaccuracy of the machine come from? There is more than one cause of … Read more
We had a problem with unreliable operation of the microscope LED light on our microscope for PCB inspection and assembly. LED boards were constantly dying and we decided to develop and properly replace them with our own Mantis Compact LED array kit. Why is LED lighting important for PCB testing and assembly? PCB testing and … Read more

Yes, you can measure current with oscilloscope and current measurement with oscillsocope does not only tell you the instantaneous value of the current but gives you the time changing waveform from which the operation of the device can be observed. Time changing currents can be measured and displayed on the oscilloscope with help of the … Read more
CNC machines have limits to how far you can push them. Usually crossing that limit results in bad surface finish and vibrations during cutting. CNC chatter is the result of poor performance of the machine. But what if you could push that limit further without lot of work and money? What is cnc chatter? Chatter … Read more
