The Fortex PA310 3 Tank Heated Bubble Etch station is a popular PCB processing unit for prototyping and small batch production for producing printed circuit boards as well as for etching metal foils.

This self-contained triple process unit with built-in Develop/Wash/Bubble Etch functions provides a convenient bench standing system. The PA310 eliminates the usual untidiness associated with producing PCBs to the solderable-etched stage.

The Tanks are manufactured from acrylic glass, for easy observation.

During the etching process, tiny air bubbles will be fed into the etching fluid. This is achieved by a diaphragm pump and aeration frame with air curtain tube in the bottom of the etching tank. The etching tank includes an adjustable glass heater for heating the etching solution up to 45°C and a thermometer to monitor the temperature.

The unit includes an adjustable PCB-holder for supporting the printed circuit boards during etching.
