I can't imagine a board to be 2" thick. Am I misunderstanding here? The thickest board I work with is 0.09" thick. That translates to 2.28mm. Did someone say that there is a standard to follow with regards to components near board edges or V-grooves?

When the fab people cut a V-groove for depaneling, do they use a lubricant on the router or do they cut it dry?

I think I phrased that poorly. I'm talking about cutting the V-groove into the panel by the fabricator so that it can be depaneled later. Or did you understand me perfectly? :P I ask because your description sounds like the depanelers I've seen us

If you have jobs where you can not, there is a company in Japan that makes the best v-groove depanelers called TST, 'guru's in v-groove depanelising'. Their systems can be supplied to reduce stress on cutting to near zero compared to CAB and other lo

| We're running into problems with board damage (broken traces, solder shorts) due to pliers and other bizarre tools being used for depanelization. I need some sort of fixture for this. A delrin plate with a slot cut to the correct depth and width mi

I am looking for a supplier or a manufacturer who can help me with Titanium Fingers for our Electrovert Econopak Plus wave solder. I am looking for the "v" groove type and also the 90 degree type fingers. I am in Australia. Thanks.

I have done this and it works just fine but going the other way plastic to paper wont work becuase of the missing groove.

They cut it dry. Most shops use a rotating blade, some use 'skiving' just pushing the PCB past a v shaped blade. Don't know how popular the latter is anymore though.
