UV-Exposure box V2

The previous version of my exposure box didn’t work good enough for my purposes, so I made a new one in the enclosure of an HP scanner. I also made a chronometer to help me time the exposure, the chronometer switches the lamps with a relays.

UV-Exposure box V2 – Update

I got the question how I could do a double sided pcb with my single sided exposure box. Well, the trick is to use a L shape piece of PCB. You can drill some guide holes in it, but it is not necessary.

I tape the sheets to the pcb, so you get a “bag” where the pcb can slide in.

For the exposure you have to remove the foil on both sides off the pcb. During the exposure you can place a black piece of paper on top against reflecting light.

UV-Exposure box V2 – Update

I updated this old exposure box by fitting it with my new timer.
