We have an array of boards that are difficult to depanel due to components being close to the edge. I want to route a space between strips (boards are 14" long x 1" wide) and have breakaway tabs like mouse bites, but the customer won't accept the ja

We've sanded bites before, but with these volumes, it would kill it. Thanks

Could always get a laser cutter to de-panelize with. I've always wanted one, personally...but, haven't been able to cost justify it. ..rob

We make pcb depaneling equipment and many of our customers do a combination of tab routed panels with pre-score in order to speed up the singulation process. If you like, I can send you a picture of an example. Regards Klaus Heimann FKN Systek Tel.

You are referring to the web left after the break, right? I figured it was possible, but I did some searching and couldn't find anything about it. Do you have a board or picture you could post of this?

It can be done and is done all the time. You need to check with your customer about this since you will not have clean square corners along the edge. If they are snapping the boards into a holder they may need the square corners to securely hold th

Check with your board house and see if they can do jump-scoring. I haven't dealt with a fab house yet that could, though, so, while it should be do-able, it doesn't appear to be super common, IMO. Alternatively, you could sand the edges after break

Fancort sells a router that will singulate the boards out of the panel, and smooth the edges at the same time. I had one of these at a previous job and it worked well enough. Programming is tedious (it is done at the machine by "learning" point to
