PCB Milling
A desktop PCB milling machine by Bantam Tools is available for undergraduate usage. Please contact the lab equipment manager for specific questions about the possibilities and tooling available.
When you're ready to design a PCB it is generally advised to not use Altium as it is for industry professionals and can be very arduous to use as an undergraduate. KiCAD is recommended as it is free and easy to use. EagleCAD is also acceptable, though outdated. Tutorials for exporting your design can be found on the Bantam Tools website: https://support.bantamtools.com/hc/en-us/sections/360009924154-PCB-Workflows
