You won't believe what can be reclaimed from old equipments
Ғылым және технология
You can find a trove in equipments that are destined to the dumpster. Not only in useful and sometimes valuable parts but also by learning.
Dismantling a machine or another device opens up information about the engineering choices behind the design of the apparatus.
In this case the protection against voltage surges from EMC or induced by EMP (discussed in a previous video, link to the video below).
In this video I show some valuable parts that have been #reclaimed from a PCB stencil printer machine and valuable information about the design of a tv sat receiver, besides some useful electronic components and more importantly the metal case.
Among the recovered parts a couple of micrometers, some pneumatic actuators, valves, a motor, and a whole cabinet that hosted the electric parts of the machine.
EMP, understanding what they are, where they came from and how to protect from them: • An #electromagnetic pu...

Yeah, sadly. Machines become old and it is understandable that people get rid of them when those machines are no longer profitable. Yet they have a lot of still usable stuff particularly for people that don't look at profit.
Hmmmm.... that Satellite reciever has what appears to be another serial port on the board - that's the first step towards hacking it and re-using the SOC.
