  1. Handle on the front is used to open and close the front shield Power button is located on the back side of the machine Power button is located on the back side of the machine
    • Handle on the front is used to open and close the front shield

    • Power button is located on the back side of the machine

  2. Air permeable material - used to protect the vacuum table Tool Holder - holds tools and allows for automatic tool changing Machine Head - for lack of a better term, but moves side to side, hold tools, and is responsible for milling
    • Air permeable material - used to protect the vacuum table

    • Tool Holder - holds tools and allows for automatic tool changing

    • Machine Head - for lack of a better term, but moves side to side, hold tools, and is responsible for milling

    • Vacuum Table - provides a vacuum that holds the PCB down

    • Tool Calibration Area - the S64 uses this block to set the Z height of the cutting tool

    • Camera - used to focus on cut marks and find fiducials on the board

    • Tool Collet - holds the cutting tool

  3. Held in the tool changer Extra Tools and tools of different sizes are held in cases Each tool has a color marker to determine type and size
    • Held in the tool changer

    • Extra Tools and tools of different sizes are held in cases

    • Each tool has a color marker to determine type and size

  4. To remove tools, simply pull it out of the holder
    • To remove tools, simply pull it out of the holder

    • To replace, simply place the tool in the holder with the tip pointing down

    • Make sure the tool pressed down so that the top of the colored label is flush with the top of the holder

    • Only change tools when using CircuitPro; it keeps track of which tools are currently in the holder and their conditions

  5. Make sure air permeable sheet is on the S64 Place board material on the sheet with the bottom left corners lined up Tape the sides of the material down
    • Make sure air permeable sheet is on the S64

    • Place board material on the sheet with the bottom left corners lined up

    • Tape the sides of the material down

    • The board is now ready for milling

  6. You now know enough to begin operating the ProtoMat S64 Read this guide in order to set up a PCB using CircuitPro
