Mechanical Parts Dimensional Analysis in PC Board Reverse Engineering

Motor driver PCBs in industrial robotic arms are not standalone circuit boards. They are intricately embedded in electromechanical systems and are mechanically coupled with power transistors, heatsinks, connectors, and mounting brackets. Every hole, edge clearance, and connector alignment must match precisely with the host robot structure. During PC board reverse engineering, we begin by capturing…

PCB Board Reverse Engineering Dimensional Analysis

Industrial robot arm power distribution boards are not generic PCBs—they feature: High copper weight (often 2oz to 6oz) to handle continuous high current Heavy-duty components like power MOSFETs, IGBTs, and connectors Multi-zone thermal design for heat dissipation Mixed-voltage levels with careful isolation between logic and power circuits Reconstructing these designs requires careful attention to not…
