How to manufacture blind via PCB?
The blind via PCB production method requires special attention to the depth of the drilling (Z-axis) to be just right. If you do not pay attention to it, it will cause difficulties in electroplating in the via, so almost no factory adopts it. You can also put the circuit layer that needs to be connected in advance in the individual circuit layer. The vias are drilled first, and then glued together, but more precise positioning and alignment devices are required.
The line width and line spacing of most process equipment: blind via 0.1mm, 0.125mm, 0.15mm.
Difference between blind via and plating through hole PCB
From the processing point of view, through hole circuit board PCB and blind via hole PCB have different requirements for cutting tools in terms of chip removal ability. The processing of blind vias makes it easy for the cutting tool to be buried in iron chips, so better chip removal performance is required.
It is better to use spiral flute taps to machine blind holes, instead of straight flutes, it is easy to block chips and cause tool breakage.
For drilling and blind hole processing, it is best to use an internally cooled central water outlet drill bit. With the central water outlet effect of the machine tool, the iron filings can be forced off by the coolant pressure, so that the iron filings will not be entangled and blocked, which leads to over-tolerance in machining and breakage of tools.
The boring is the same as the drilling, and it is best to use the center outlet.
But the above statement is not absolute espeically when you want custom made pcb boards. It mainly depends on the depth-to-diameter ratio of the blind via. If the shallow hole is processed, it can also be used as a general plating through hole PCB processing tool.
