if you have a budget for new machine, laser depanelising is pretty good for flex PCB as no physical stress on PCB like mechanical routing, thus fixturing is easier and less prone to moving the flex while cutting. Laser systens can also cut FR4 standa

Lasers can be used to depanel individual PCBs from panels. In addition, laser depaneling is often used when very tight tolerances are required for PCBs such as when there is very little room in an enclosure that the board is fitting in to. But the ch

Steve, I have also requirements for this machine. I was able to evaluate some of these machines but the result was not ok. It burn the PCB especially if you have 5mm thick PCB. If you can find one that doesn�t burn PCB please let me know as I am als

I have issues with damaging PCB with depaneling in my company. Mostly mousebite depaneling and some vscore. I have looked into laser depaneling, pneumatic, routers, hand tools but have not found something that I can put full trust in. To understand m

Didn't see if anyone responded to your question offline, but if you are still evaluating laser depanelers, we would like to help? Here are just a few key factors to consider. (1) what material are you cutting? (2) what is the material thickness (3)

Yet another example of narrow focus. "What's the best and latest machine out there, and should I use a technology that's been around for decades." Wrong approach there, Chunks! Think outside the box. My firm, Worldtronics Consultancy Services, In

Use a router with fiducial correction? in reality if you are putting a PCB in a plastic enclosure then the injection moulding is going to have far greater tolerances than a laser or router depanelised PCB is. Also, if our laser markers are anything

For straight line cuts I like the Maestro depanelizer. If you have to make cuts that curve, then a router will work. If you do use a laser you may want to consider putting it in a room with an exhaust fan. Something that can really move some air, not

As R&D project leader I have worked at FICO on this issue the last years. Maybe you have found the info you are looking for but for laser cutting are more companies involved than the three you found, the experience I have with laser cutting for PCB p
