Looking for a manual machine to de-panel with the panels held by 60mm tabs. Each panel hold multi-boards consisting of different shapes and sizes. Scoring is apparently not an option and volume does not dictate a large scale machine.

Yes, there are a few companies that make de-paneling equipment, Cab is one of the larger they make scoring and tab de-panelers. Just keep in mind regardless to what type of equipment is used if the parts are to close to the board you still run the ri

Matt, believe it or not, but mechanical stress is cracking these internally and you can't see it with bare eye. Consider de-paneling as a root cause if parts are close to the de-panel V-score edge/router tabs. I can send you more information.

I can not tell you what the actual stress limits are. I can tell you that de-paneling PCB's by hand is a very poor choice. I have seen numerous accounts of cracked caps, resistors, and LED�s due to incorrect de-paneling procedures. I would recommend

Common methods used for depaneling flexible circuits are: * Laser * Punching * Water jet

Thanks Dave .........can anyone recommend any vendors for water jetting or punching?

We use a CAB de-panelizer to separtare our boards out of a panel. Works great.

check your de-panelling process if you are using break-out tabs or V scoring.

Background on the PCB: Thickness: .032" Material: Standard Fr4 V-score: Leaves .016" (approx .008" cuts on either side) We are having some issues on these boards where the edges are delaminating all the way to the copper during de-panel. Now, we are
