Le Circuit Imprimé Français (CIF) Technodrill 2 est une fraiseuse 2,5 axes. Il est capable de fraiser ou découper des pièces à partir de :

• Formats de fichier: .DXF , .DWG , .NC , .TXT , .ISO , .PLT
• Dimensions maximum : 30cm X 29 cm X 1cm (X Y Z)
• Matériaux: MDF, Styromousse (il existe différentes densités), Cire haute densité, ABS, Fibre de Carbone, bois, Aluminium.

La CIF est également capable de graver des “Printed Circuit Boards” (PCBs) à partir de:

• File Formats: .GBR , .NC , .DXF

Cependant, nous utiliserons principalement le format .GBR (Gerber) puisque c'est le format standard de la CIF et ainsi avoir accès à la plupart des paramètres de contrôle durant la fabrication.

The CIF is controlled through an interface called “Galaad” which allows for basic design work and the generation of “Gcode” (A standard language used to communicate with the motors of a CNC machine). However, we do not generally use Galaad for it's design capabilities as it is far inferior to dedicated design software (see below). We use Galaad primarily as a “Computer Automated Machining” (CAM) software or a bridge between the design software and the CIF.

• Autodesk Fustion 360
• Autodesk Inventor
• AutoCad
• TinkerCad

These softwares are professional grade within the professional world and is offered free for all students ici.

• KiCad
• Eagle

These two softwares do the exact same work and have the same functions. The preference for one over the other is largely subjective and is generally based upon which program you learned first.

In the case of a cable becoming accidently unplugged we have provided a basic schematic of the wiring. All of the cables are marked appropriately on the CIF respecting this diagram. In addition to these wires there is a USB flash-drive that must stay permentaly plugged into the computer operating the CIF. The license is on this USB drive. DO NOT TOUCH THE USB!
