Hi, it's Ladyada.
Right now I am in the Adafruit's factory.
Yes, in Manhattan.
Oh my god it's so big, huge, and this is in Manhattan?
This is the one I have in Manhatten, this is in Soho.
Soho, Manhattan. This is so expensive.
I know. I get it.
Ok, but we are going to show all of the equipment and testing
and fabrication that we do here using this awesome 360 camera.
Yeah!
This is really great!
So now I am filming in the Insta360 One X.
This is the new model of the Insta360 product.
And they're going to release it next month
so when this video come out, probably the product will be online.
And I lost my selfie pole after Maker Faire
So I'm going to ask them for one more, now I'm just using an ordinary selfie pole.
And this one I don't need to use my adapter to connect with my phone to use it.
This one you can just push a button and then record
without Wi-Fi connection or Bluetooth connection
Oh yeah?
They are trying to upgrade their apps. The app is not compatible with Android right now.
Only iOS, so I'm waiting for it.
Okay, we have 22 or 23 minutes, so let's start here.
This is where we store our stencils, so the stencil is what we use when we put solder paste on the PCBs.
So you have probably seen that.
And here is for example, one stencil, you can see all the holes in it.
And so we have one stencil for each design.
From here you can see neopixel jewel and backpack.
So each board has its own stencil
This is the very new one, this is the Cricket bit.
Wow
It's cool, right?
So this is the stencil and they are nice and skinny.
And this is where we store feeders, our parts that are ready to be used tomorrow.
So get everything ready for the next day. Nice, organized.
So each one has... this fuses and this one is transistors
We have all of the parts here and our most common parts we keep on the same feeder
so we don't have to keep switching it in and out.
So this is a common resistor or common power regulator.
So these are ready for tomorrow.
Cool
Okay, good. So this is our refrigerator for our solder paste.
Liquid solder paste and we use lead free.
So that's in here, nice and clean. It's meant for coca-cola cans but it also fits the solder paste.
Oh really? I thought you actually have real beverage in there, but it is for solder paste.
We have beverage center else where. We have to keep them separated.
Oh, Creator Pro
Yes.
That's from Flashforge.
This is not quite working, but we are working on it.
This is our prototyping area where we design
You can actually check out our old stencil
So we use stencil by hand.
So you see this one is much smaller, and you would actually by hand do it.
Yes
And then we can't do it any more.
In China, I saw them do it this way.
They usually do it by hand, and it's fine. But then we bought the machine
and the price was good.
And it is more precise, especially when you get to a very small part, 0.4mm pitch or BGA
You can do it by hand but we're not that skilled.
Maybe in China they are that skilled.
Yes, they are very skillful. Not me though.
They're placing them with toothpicks, I don't know how to do it.
So here is the 3D printer we are working on and we have a laser cutter, Glowforge.
Oh you are using Glowforge.
Yes, we got one from them, we are still learning how to use it.
We have our old Epilog which is our classic laser cutter.
We use it to cut enclosures and cases
Wow, very neat.
You know, a laser cut piece.
We are building projects here. This is a levitator.
And we have other 3D printers, this is one we are fixing right now.
Actually our stenciler had a little problem, so we have been manually stenciling.
So we set this up and we are about to put it back in the box.
Because we got the machine working.
But we didn't want to stop all production because the stencil machine was down.
So we have the back up, the manual one.
Spatula
Yes, spatula, do it by hand.
But it is not fun, because you have to be perfect at it.
What's in this box?
This is the parts that were used to fix the stenciler
So we just got it serviced. We have a service contract.
When we buy it, you pay for the technician and they will come out whenever it breaks.
And they break sometimes.
And this is the board loader.
So you see all the PCBs
Oh, yeah.
It's all in here and let me open this.
And what it does is it lifts each part and then pops it out.
So it's nice, it feeds it
Oh, cool
And it also does the soldering paste at the same time?
This one does, but all this one does is very basic, all it does is lift the board and flip them.
But you know, that's very handy still.
Ok, so this is the stenciler, this is the machine, so you can see the stencil gets loaded in.
And then you can see these metal blades.
They go back and forth.
It is off because we were sleeping.
But there is inspection so it takes photos and it checks that the stencils is line up perfectly.
and also that the paste got put on the PCB
And if there is a mistake, it'll actually stop and say hey clean it off and let's run it again.
So it is quite nice, it's a very nice machine.
And then after the board goes to the stencil printer so now it has pasted on it.
That was just a pick and place, this is our first pick and place
Wow.
And this is the Samsung 481, so you can see there are a lot of bays for feeders.
And we have some of the feeders again, some of them have what part it is pre-written
Because it is the same. You know we use this part on every single board.
So instead of taking it out every time, you just keep it in here, makes it really fast for us to change designs
And then you see all these nozzles, you can stick your 360 camera inside, so you can see it all around.
Oh yeah, they can see all around.
This is neat, you don't normally get to see inside, because it is unsafe.
But it's off now.
And then we see all the inspection, and there's cameras, and there are nozzles.
This picks up ten parts at a time
Ten parts?
Yes, so you can see there are 10 nozzles. It picks up all 10 at the same time and places them at the same time.
So it is very, very fast, because it moving back and forth on XY it takes a long time
How many can it produce for a day?
There're specified and components per hour and I think this is 60,000 components per hour.
60,000?
Yes, 60,000.
Wow
I think this is the right number, maybe it's more.
Guess this one is good for picking up a lot of parts very fast
and then places them at the same time.
We actually have to go faster with the production, so what you do is you get two pick and place machines.
This one is from Samsung.
Yes, this is made by Samsung.
They use these machines to make the cell phones.
So they actually do a very good machine. I really like the Samsung.
We went to equipment show and we tried all these different machines
We actually get to try each machine.
And I think for the price this one is the best.
And also good at placing unusual parts.
Like it has a really good vision system, the camera is really good.
So this one is the first one we got. This one you can see it only has 6 nozzles.
See it has 6 nozzles there
It can pick up larger parts a little easier, because the nozzles are farther apart
So there's fewer but there's more space between them
and also this one has a bottom camera so over there you can kind of see the rectangle.
That's the bottom camera so it is very good at big parts.
Where you have to look from the bottom, because you can see from the bottom as well from the top.
Like this one has a camera from the top
This is the top view.
Oh, like a microscope?
It is basically a microscope camera, a very precision camera.
But then there is another camera that can look from the bottom so you can see parts from both sides.
And also there's a tray so you can see in the back there's a tray holder.
For chips so this one has a tray holder that we made for it as well.
So this one you can see this slightly bigger parts, not resistors and capacitors it does maybe
you know a larger connector.
And then you can see that pickup tape so this has a piece of tape on top of it.
So when the nozzle picks it up, it has a vacuum to pick it up
Otherwise with the holes it can't pick it up very easily
So this is the pick and place, so after they're done, all the parts are placed.
And this is the inspection station.
And this is where we can look at the boards.
So we look see that it looks correct, that all the parts are correct.
We look at the chip that is oriented. Because a lot of the pick and place they don't do that for you.
If you put the tray in backwards, they are backwards.
They are very fast.
But you know what in China they all go through inspection.
They have employees at every machine, so they can inspect every step.
So the machine only inspect from this step?
Yes, so we do it for the first run. And then once in a while we do it.
We have a bell if there is an inspection problem.
We were given this as a gift from one of our vendors.
And we were like this is awesome, so we ring the bell.
So that everyone will know.
And this is the oven, so after it goes through the inspection and it's good. This is the oven.
And it heats up the board slowly until it gets to here and then it is melted
It's a little dusty.
We have to dust our equipment.
But this one is nice, because it actually came in half.
So it came in two pieces.
And each piece can go in the elevator. Because it's you know we're on the top floor
and we didn't want to open up the windows.
For that we have to break a window and bring the machine in and it would be really expensive
and complicated, there is a crane, and they have to shut down the street.
But this oven maker cut it half for us.
So they do it in half and they are Korean.
So it is custom made.
It's not custom custom made, but it's one of the few companies will do that, they will sell it to you in two pieces.
This is the nitrogen generator.
So this makes nitrogen and that's for a clean the environment for the solder
And we have the compressor, it is a little loud. You can hear the noise, it is making the compressed air.
Hello Michelle, Naomi is here. So Michelle is running the selective solder machine and it's running right now, check it out.
Oh I can see it from there.
Right now I think it is doing inspection run
It' s fluxing.
Okay, so it is spraying flux on it, and then you see the two silver bubbles.
In about a minute, it will go through, it will actually solder all of the components
So this is for the through-hole parts instead of soldering them by hand we have them doing by the machine
It's ready, ready, ready, let's go!
So you can see it is soldering all the components.
And then comes out like this perfect plate
Well, almost perfect.
This is all done for us and we don't need to solder by hands. Michelle rather hang out.
It's very neat.
Yes, it is very nice, machine, this is a good machine, made in California, but they are very popular.
Inside there is a gigantic melted ball of solder.
Like a gigantic solder pot
This is really great for when you don't want to solder by hand. Where is the solder sticks?
Do you have any?
Yup, we have.
I want to show one.
There.
This is cool looking.
They are kind of hidden in over here.
Thanks Michelle
Michelle's the best
It start out like this
So the solder comes like this
You know usually it comes like on a reel but this is just like a chunk of solder
And then we saw them, and then we put them in, like chocolate.
Yes, it does look like those swiss chocolate.
You don't want go eat that.
Yes, this is like the worst chocolate.
Put it back here, this is heavy and we have to clean up the nozzles often.
Is that a cotton candy machine?
I don't know what that is.
Looks like a cotton candy machine.
Yes, that's Noah's.
Is that a cotton candy machine?
Yes.
Last time he was in charge of snacks.
He just never bought it home.
Shouldn't be next to the solder.
From here you can get a good view of it as well.
The drag chain is very large
Yes, it is very precise. This one is for holding the boards. The X, Y is actually below.
And there's two nozzles, one is big and one is small.
So is it fluxing from below?
Yes
The sliver thing that is close to us is a fluxer, now it is off, because it did all the fluxing.
Because you saw the bar solder, it is solid, there is no flux in the center.
So you have to do it in two steps, also there's nitrogen.
That nitrogen generator, the nitrogen comes out here and it is in the air we breathe
But if we get pure nitrogen around the solder, it makes for a cleaner
like you see it is very shiny and clean solder joint, so it is really nice too, so it is worth it.
Okay, we have our storage and the static bags bag
And the machine that will put barcode on the bags for us.
We have a snack station.
You can see over here, you can have snacks and you can hang out.
This is where people have their lunch when they take their break.
These are just all the components after they've been assembled
These are bluetooth and these are QC passed
Oh, so you just store it in a box. You don't pack it right away?
No, we don't. Because we make many months worth of product
Because the set up, the pick and place takes a lot of effort, you have to put all the reels in.
You have to get everything ready to go in the stenciler.
So we don't want to run all the time.
If we are going to set it up, we have to do a big run to make it worth it.
For the amount of setup that you do, we can do the set it up really fast
If you send to an outside factory, usually it can takes weeks to scheduled
because everyone they have to do so many jobs.
Here we have a lot of flexibility because we're only doing our own work.
So if we need to make more of these in a rush, we can do it.
*But once we set up to make it, we will make a whole bunch and then
*We have a lot of open work orders. We may not make
...but unless we really need them in the store we'll just do them when we can.
I mean it is just a trade-off of how much time we have
to run the machine and then how many people we got doing what.
When you put them in the box, if you are not being careful, will some of them fall apart?
No, it's solid. I mean they are tested and the solder is really strong.
So it's okay I mean I wouldn't put it in a gigantic bin, but this is fine.
They're not that heavy and I wouldn't shake them.
They are ok, we have to put them back in and then people test them.
This is like the board you just saw.
They've finished.
This is your new product, right?
Yes, this is the Cricket, this is a robotics board.
So you can see the pick and place on the top and selective solder on the bottom
This lets you do robotics with a Feather or a micro:bit, we are doing one for the Raspberry Pi soon
Sometimes we have double sided boards, so this is pick and place on the one side
And then other parts too we can place.
That's all good.
We have all our screens and OLEDs
This is our station where we make our bigger kits
Is this all assembled by who? Your employees?
Yeah, so we get like all the different components. This is a pack that comes with all these different parts
And this I think is the specialty
This is the Microsoft kit
So for example Microsoft contacted us and said we want a pack for our workshop.
Can you take all these and put it in the box so we can give one to each person.
So we will do that for them and they give us a list of what they want in the package.
Awesome
And you have to weigh it.
Yes for QA we weight them because it is a good way to quickly tell if something is forgotten
Because these items are kinda heavy
Okay now over here...
He is working on some code for the Feather M4. Exciting.
These are all my bins where I store my personal samples.
Is it from Digi-key? Yesterday they were at Maker Faire.
Yes, so I used to keep all sorts of stuff
You know, I have bins and everything, like I got the MTK1 modules.
Beaglebone, character LCDs. So all the samples I get, all the things I find.
There are some very ancient OpenBSD stickers like 1983 or something.
1983?
I don't know. It is very old
These are all the parts that I get and then I test the samples and then I keep them.
Motor
Various stepper motors, I never get this from the store, but I got a sample so I will try it.
That's that.
I think this is labeled cameras, is that small cameras?
These are TTL cameras, these are micro-controller cameras.
A little board camera
I saw the Halloween googly eyes
Yes, I will give a Halloween one, we have extras
This is a weird camera. So I get samples of them
And sometimes it takes years until I actually use it, but it is here if I need it.
So this one you don't ship to anybody?
No, this is just for me, this is my playing around, building and trying things.
Cool more tutorials, so that I could learn from you
yeah I just have to come up with all this stuff.
But we use these for projects, like I have speakers.
And then this is a bunch of 3D printing parts that we've made.
We just have all the samples here. so yeah if we want to show them off
If we want to show them off this is the Gameboy that we made.
So we got like one of each.
We got all these parts we can show them off.
When people ask what do you do
And we got some old certificates from radio shack.
We put some on Twitter and people thought we bought Radio Shack.
So here is where we do the show desk, so now you can pretend that you are doing our shows.
Hey I am on the Engineering Talk
This is what we are going to do tomorrow. This is a Hackaday badge here. And we got our phone
We have all our setup here, we have our microphone, our cameras and our stream deck.
I sit here and we got samples, we got the phone. So this is kind of where the magic happens for the shows
And then here are the puppets
So this is our puppets, we're actually just about finishing another video, so this is the Adabot.
*This is.... and she's an owl
I like this one.
Sparky the blue smoke monster.
What's his name again?
This is Sparky
My stuff animal also called Sparky
I will eat your electronics
Whenever your electronics catch on fire
Yes, and eat the bad ones do not eat the good ones.
He is a capacitor
So this is our little character
He makes it kind of fun. Like if you make a mistake, maybe it is fun instead of scary
So we get that puppet and then we got the 555 timer and the capacitor
So we use all these puppets, we do puppet shows on Youtube.
Okay so this is our tester area.
So we were talking about all the testers, here we have some testers that are pretty complicated.
So that this is one that use Raspberry Pi and a screen and a J-Link to program a chip
This is a lot better than having a computer do it
Because this way the computer can't have virus, because it is a Raspberry pi.
So yeah this lifts.
You put a board down and then you close it.
I like these testers that we have, some simple ones.
Some testers are so small, there's no clamp.
Because you just put the board down and it tests in two seconds.
so you go beep and it lights up the green LED and then it's just built on an Arduino compatible.
This makes it really easy to test boards. Really really fast.
Because we test everything, everything gets tested here.
This is where we make our testers.
This is the tester making parts. This is a tester that maybe needs to be remade.
We have a bunch of boards.
We recycle them after maybe the product we made a different
tester or we cancel this product.
We have some nice testers up there.
We don't always use them because they're really heavy and they're strong but sometimes
we don't need something that big. But we still have a couple of the big style testers in case we need them.
And then we're back to the stencils, so that was the whole loop.
And then you can come over here. You can see.
This is my workbench where I do soldering. I'm putting together some stuff.
And then this is my desk where I do programming and stuff
Oh your desk. Everybody gets like a shelf but you don't have a shelf?
Nah, I don't need one. I put stuff on the floor.
But I'm slowly getting to everything. So I'm testing, I have a new prototype. And then I'll put it together
and then we'll test it so I'll do that here.
Alright then this is Phil's desk.
Hi! So now you're going to sign this.
Oh you have the electric (silver) pen. Oh that's the one I use.
And we have one for you.
Yeah that's good
I'm gonna frame this.
Yeah that's it, I can't think of anything.
It's OK.
Okay then this one is yours.
I'll also swap with you. You hold this, and I'm going to sign this.
And when we're all finished I'll get a photo of the both of you over there, with your magazines.
This is so awesome and I finally got one.
Here you go.
Oh thank you so much.
Oh here's your pen.
Okay cool, so that was the tour of Adafruit.
That was a whirlwind tour but you guys got to see everything here.
This is the main floor? All the production lines are here?
This is production, and we also have another floor we do the shipping and storage.
Which is exciting but not as exciting.
So we thought to show this because your viewers tend to be about making electronics.
So maybe next time you visit we'll do the other floor.
The shipping
Awesome. Okay I know when I will come back but definitely if I come back I will.
Maybe next year
Bye. Bye!
