| Q. |
Which equipment do you need besides
Prototyping machine? |
| A. |
- CAD designing the pattern of the circuit : EASY
CAD
- Personal computer (PC): OS Windows / Interface
: USB port or RS232C port
- Vacuum cleaner "Jetstream"
- Air compressor, Ring setter (simplified model)
base )for HP model / ATC model (Besides Auto Lab)
- Tools (such as end mills) are required
|
| Q. |
House hold vacuum cleaners are utilizable
for the system? |
| A. |
House hold vacuum cleaners are utilizable.
But there is a problem of the noise and some house
hold type cannot operate at the same time as the prototyping
machine. Additionally, some are
not durable enough for long time usage.
|
| Q. |
What is the advantage of the optional
vacuum cleaner? |
| A. |
Compared with the house hold vacuum cleaner,
it is very silent and has high dust-collection
as well as high air cleaning HEPA filter.
|
| Q. |
What is the specification of the air
compressor? |
| A. |
Please ask us more detailed information
because the specification varies depending on each
mode Rough standard specification is as follows;
- regulating pressure ; more than 0.6Mpa
- Outlet air volume; more than 60L/min
- Diameter of the tube; 6mm (outer shape)
|
| Q. |
What is the standard accessories of
the prototyping machine? |
| A. |
Bakelite board, FR-4 board, fiducial pin
for double side milling, software CD-ROM, Install manual
|
| Q. |
What is the file format that MITS machine
can load? |
| A. |
DXF file and Gerber file.
(CR-5000, Altium Designer (Protel), PADS, OrCAD, WinPCB,
Eagle, Microwave Office, AutoCAD, AutoDesk etc)
|
| Q. |
What is the maximum working area? (unit
: mm) |
| A. |
From 150mm x 150mm (FP-21T Precision)
to 400mm x 365mm (Auto Lab W)
|
| Q. |
What is the thinnest track width of
the milling? |
| A. |
FP-21T Precision
is 0.05mm (50µm)
Other models are 0.1mm
|
| Q. |
Isn't it difficult to align the processing
condition? |
| A. |
The items to align are processing speed
or spindle rotation speed, but you can configure easily.
Additionally, the rough indication is written in the
users' manual.
|
| Q. |
What kind of material can you use as
a substrate board? |
| A. |
FR-4 board, Paper phenol, Teflon, Strontium
titanate, alminium, and acril material
|
| Q. |
Do you need special equipment to fix
the board? |
| A. |
Fixing by Scotch tape is sufficient.
Additionally, we supply two kinds
of vacuum table.
|
| Q. |
What is the thinnest thickness of the
substrate board? |
| A. |
When using the FP-21T
Precision and vacuum table,
it is 0.05mm (50µm).
Other models without using the vacuum table, it is 0.2mm.
|
| Q. |
Is it possible for routing and drilling
process? |
| A. |
Both routing and drilling are possible.
|
| Q. |
Is it possible to mill on the aluminum
material? |
| A. |
Optional aluminum engraving bit makes
it possible to process.
|
| Q. |
Can you make the through hole plating
after drilling? |
| A. |
We supply many kinds of through
hole formation system.
(such as through hole pin, conductive paste)
|
| Q. |
What is the regular maintenance of
the machine? |
| A. |
Lubricate the lead screw, or cleaning
of the spindle motor and inside of the collet.
|
| Q. |
Are there any maintenance contract?
|
| A. |
We provide the annual maintenance contract.
Please contact us for more detail.
|
| Q. |
How is the repair system? |
| A. |
MITS repairs in our factory, but in overseas
our distributors are in charge of repairing.
In minor trouble, we support our customer by telephone
or email.
|
| Q. |
How much does it cost for the shipping? |
| A. |
It depends on the destination, but essentially
the shipping cost is included in the price of the system.
In case of the oversea, we export F.O.B. Japan.
|
| Q. |
Is it possible to use the prototyping
machine overseas that purchased in Japan? |
| A. |
Our system is compliant from 85 to 264V.
|
| Q. |
Are there some overseas distributors?
|
| A. |
Currently, we have many
distributor in USA, Asia, and Europe.
We are going to create a larger network in near future.
