Tabs are generally faster to cut through vs a v-scored board. Cutting the V-scored boards with a saw is an option but it is not faster...it just decreases the potential damage that can happen when using a pizza cutter. Preferred method would be to us

Hi All, Does anyone know if there is any standard equipment capable for Ceramic/Alumina based PCB depenaling (cut into odd shape)? I am aware of diamond saw cutter, but it only limit to straight line cut. Thanks. LH

You can get a router with a saw blade to handle v-score, but if you plan on doing automated depanel/routing I would probably update my panels to mouse-bites and go with a standard bit based router.

Singulation is much faster and cleaner than routing Here's a link to a fairly recent article on gang sawing CSP http://www.electroiq.com/articles/ap/print/volume-9/issue-10/features/step-by-step/step-11-the-back-end-process-singulation-step-by-step.

And pin outs of both. Once I saw a SOT-6 replaced with a miniSOT-6 (IIRC) The pin outs of the two parts were different. We did make an adaptor board and it wasn't too bad. We populated a panel of the adaptor boards, depanelized them and put them in t

Dear Jacob, I have a company that makes a really cheap but great depanelizing machine and one to get rid of the tabs on a routed FR 4 board. I saw them at the assembly expo in Chicago. The cost is under 2,000 dollars and works well. I think it mig

Hi All, We are in the process of converting from RMA solder paste to no-clean process across the shop. This will allow me to carry my semi-aqueous cleaner out of the building and set it ablaze using the terpenes as the fire water. Then I can go ab
