We have recently purchased equipment that would probably solve your problem. We are using 1.6mm pcb material 1/3 of which is left unscored. When the pcb is de-panelized there is no damage to any components and we have cut our break time in half.

| Does any one have some information on Sony routing machines? Do you know the website, the contact? Thanks. | Ken, Are you looking for that small Sony router. If so, I believe you can buy it from WAND. WAND is known for punch type depaneling but

I have a 2-up panel measuring about 8" x 8" with a score for depanel throuch the middle. I see warping after reflow of the panel (bending in/about score line). The board is not framed (i.e., supported) during SMT reflow other than on the conveyor thr

I asked the same question a couple of weeks ago. I received a lot of e-mail from salesmen et al trying to sell me equipment costing several thousand dollars. I was glad to get all the information I could, but there was no way I was going to get a PO

| We are in the process of deciding whether to change a PCB product from a single board to a 3 up panel array. Could you please advise on the most effective removal design, either scoring or snap off, taking into account that material utilisation is

Those pizza cutters just have a tough time with edges other than straight, don't they? [HEY, they don't cut it!!! Haaaa!!!!] Consider either routing or singulation as an alternative. Look here: http://www.smtnet.com//forums/index.cfm?fuseaction=

Dave, We are using tab nibblers right now, but they have a hard time with round boards. FKN has a model(N200) that shears the tabs off. The cost is fairly low(3K). I just wanted to know if there are any other brands out there that might work on rou

SR Evers is correct. Use a press. I used to design em for some jobs I ran many years ago. The biggest thing to look out for is stress points. These presses work great if the board is designed for it. If not, check components after this process!
