It features a 1064 nm, 20 W laser with a 35 µm spot diameter, supports traces as fine as 0.1 mm (tested down to 0.025 mm), and handles QFN packages with 0.35 mm pitch and 0201 passives. The machine also auto-cuts solder paste stencils. PCB blanks are made from copper-clad alumina and zirconia ceramics, ranging from 23×23 mm to 84×80 mm. The 5-step workflow covers design, laser ablation, stencil cutting, SMD assembly, and testing. Priced at $5,000 for early-bird orders (30% deposit), production is scheduled to begin September 1. The company's origins are somewhat opaque — LinkedIn lists Cyprus while the privacy policy references a Russian LLC. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What trace width and spacing can the PewCB One achieve? PewCB One supports traces as fine as 0.1 mm with 0.1 mm spacing in standard operation. The machine has been tested down to 0.025 mm traces with 0.04 mm spacing. It achieves 2 µm resolution and 30 µm repeatability using a 1064 nm, 20 W laser with a 35 µm spot diameter. _Hardware developers tracking desktop PCB fabrication options follow new tool releases on daily.dev._ ### What PCB blank materials and sizes does the PewCB One support? PewCB One uses double-sided PCB blanks made from copper-clad alumina and zirconia ceramics, with pre-formed vias and plated through-holes. Supported dimensions range from 23×23 mm up to 84×80 mm. Each early-bird kit ships with 20 blanks included in the $5,000 price. _Engineers evaluating desktop PCB systems for their lab can track competing options on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [New Tool Makes 3D Printed PCBs, Fast](https://daily.dev/posts/new-tool-makes-3d-printed-pcbs-fast-t4syadhrh) · Hackaday · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Using A Fiber Laser To Etch 0.1 Mm PCB Traces](https://daily.dev/posts/using-a-fiber-laser-to-etch-0-1-mm-pcb-traces-beii48xyr) · Hackaday · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CircuitHub takes $28m from Plural to make PCBs the way clouds make compute](https://daily.dev/posts/circuithub-takes-28m-from-plural-to-make-pcbs-the-way-clouds-make-compute-n4716ntai) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/pewcb-one-desktop-pcb-fabrication-system-enables-rapid-prototyping-at-home-lqu3s1mtm) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"PewCB One Desktop PCB fabrication system enables rapid prototyping at home","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/pewcb-one-desktop-pcb-fabrication-system-enables-rapid-prototyping-at-home-lqu3s1mtm","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/pewcb-one-desktop-pcb-fabrication-system-enables-rapid-prototyping-at-home-lqu3s1mtm"},"datePublished":"2026-08-11T04:29:20.372Z","dateModified":"2026-08-12T01:00:18.569Z","description":"PewCB One is a desktop PCB fabrication system that uses laser ablation to produce double-sided PCBs at home or in the office in roughly 30 minutes after Gerber...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/962d9e937e9e9c3af38a401920d51285?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/962d9e937e9e9c3af38a401920d51285?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"CNX Software","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"CNXSoft","url":"https://daily.dev/cnxsoft","image":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1366138?v=4","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"EndorseAction"},"userInteractionCount":510}},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/pewcb-one-desktop-pcb-fabrication-system-enables-rapid-prototyping-at-home-lqu3s1mtm","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"CNX Software","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/cnx-software"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"PewCB One Desktop PCB fabrication system enables rapid prototyping at home"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/pewcb-one-desktop-pcb-fabrication-system-enables-rapid-prototyping-at-home-lqu3s1mtm#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What trace width and spacing can the PewCB One achieve?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"PewCB One supports traces as fine as 0.1 mm with 0.1 mm spacing in standard operation.
