rush316 First, no one stated that PBB and/or PCBE are in FR4. FR4 contain tetra-bromo-bisphenol A [TBBA]. Second, there are classes [and grades] of dielectric materials used in fabricating printed circuit boards. Grades, NEMA LI-1. From these gr

Does anyone know of a PCB material that is better at preventing arcing than fr4 or g10?

We use materials such as G10, durapol, or FR4. We put a lot of holes in the fixtures so that only enough material is left to support the board during reflow to prevent sag/ warp or whatever. We also try and keep all bot side material in unpopulated

I am very familliar with various lasers and cutting technologies. This is probably the only laser technology that has a chance to do what you are after on FR-4 G10, G11 etc and not burn. It's new ground for them and I'll bet the system is not tooled
