Aiming at the technical problems, the application provides a method for repairing residual copper of a PCB, which comprises the following steps:
s1: acquiring a local image of the PCB, and locking a position area where the residual copper is located;
s2: obtaining the shape and the height of the residual copper;
s3: the milling cutter is controlled to repair the residual copper;
it is easy to understand that after the PCB is imaged, the height data and the shape data of the residual copper are obtained, and the milling cutter is controlled to grind and remove the residual copper according to the height data and the shape data, so that the accurate repair of the PCB is finished, compared with the manual repair, the mechanical precision can be ensured, the long-time cultivation of technicians is not needed, the processing speed is higher, and the work is more stable; compared with laser repair, the substrate of the PCB can be protected from being damaged, and the residual copper is removed more thoroughly by mechanical grinding in the scheme.
The residual copper position of the PCB is observed and judged by naked eyes, the requirement on the working proficiency of technicians is high, and technicians with insufficient experience often have omission phenomenon, so as to be an improved embodiment of the invention, in the step S1, a standard image of the PCB is provided, the PCB is scanned to obtain a comparison image, and the standard image is compared with the comparison image to obtain a position area where the residual copper is located; it is easy to understand that the apparatus for scanning the PCB board may be an AOE inspection apparatus, the inspection apparatus automatically scans the PCB board by a camera, collects images, compares the tested solder joints with the standard images of the PCB board in a database, performs image comparison by image processing, inspects defects on the PCB board, and displays residual copper by a display or an automatic mark; by the method, the position of the residual copper on the PCB can be accurately locked, a corresponding residual copper area is obtained, and the shape, size and height parameters of the residual copper are measured, so that data support is provided for milling cutter grinding.
In the prior art, because copper plating thickness processes in the PCB preparation process are different, the situation of uneven thickness of the residual copper formed by imperfect mechanical error processes also occurs, so that the traditional laser repair needs to adjust a laser transmitter to a proper and stable frequency, the output energy is relatively fixed, the effect of the residual copper on receiving corresponding energy to ablate and remove the residual copper can be ensured because the energy reaches a certain value, the situation of excessive ablation cannot be ensured in thickness, and the influence on the base material of the PCB is caused; as an improved embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, after scanning the shape of the copper residue, a first thickness and a second thickness are obtained, wherein the difference between the first thickness and the second thickness is the value of the height of the copper residue, where: the first thickness is the thickness of the PCB substrate; the second thickness is the thickness of the PCB substrate and the residual copper superposed; to better explain the effect of the scheme of the invention, the following is applied to the first thickness and the second thicknessThickness measurement method and distance further explanation: the first laser thickness gauge and the second laser thickness gauge are arranged on the front surface and the back surface of the PCB, and at the moment, the distance between the first laser thickness gauge and the second laser thickness gauge is kept constant and marked as C; the first laser thickness gauge works to obtain the vertical distance A from the first laser thickness gauge to the front surface of the PCB, the second laser thickness gauge works to obtain the vertical distance B from the second laser thickness gauge to the back surface of the PCB, and the first thickness h 1 The calculation formula is as follows: h is a 1 =c- (a+b); obtaining the thickness of the region containing the residual copper by the method, namely the second thickness h 2 The calculation formula of the calculated height value of the residual copper height H is H=h 1 -h 2 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the The first laser thickness gauge and the second laser thickness gauge are of micron-level precision, and are specifically laser displacement sensors with the model number of M8 or M12 manufactured by Hangzhou eastern measuring instrument science and technology Co-ordinates; therefore, the first thickness and the second thickness are firstly obtained to obtain the height data of the residual copper, and then the accurate grinding is carried out through the milling cutter, so that the accurate removal of the residual copper with different thicknesses is realized, the manual mechanical removal clean characteristic and the laser repair accurate characteristic are compatible, and the PCB is not damaged secondarily.

As an improved embodiment of the invention, the rotation parameter of the milling cutter is 100-1000r/min; it is understood that if the rotation parameter of the milling cutter is higher than 1000r/min, the substrate of the PCB is affected by the higher contact temperature, and the service life of the milling cutter can be prolonged.
The invention has the advantages that:
1) Compared with manual repair, the method can ensure mechanical precision, does not need to culture technicians for a long time, has higher processing speed and more stable work; compared with laser repair, the method can protect the base material of the PCB from being damaged, and the mechanical grinding in the scheme can remove the residual copper more thoroughly;
