Abstract:
A printer cartridge pin exposure and removal apparatus for the removal of embedded pins within a printer cartridge. The printer cartridge is positioned within a cartridge mount and securely held in a fixed position through a clamping mechanism. A first pin extracting mechanism and a second pin extracting mechanism are positioned about opposite ends of the printer cartridge. A first drill and a second drill are supported by and aligned with the printer cartridge through a first drill aligner and a second drill aligner respectively. The first drill aligner moves the first drill towards the printer cartridge, while the first drill drives a first drill bit in order to penetrate the printer cartridge. Similarly, the second drill aligner moves the second drill towards the printer cartridge, while the second drill drives a second drill bit in order to penetrate the opposite side of the printer cartridge.
