Stress-free cutting and improved productivity:
Introducing laser technology for depaneling
Depaneling of modern HD circuit boards can be frustrating.
Avoiding damaging small, sensitive components, maintaining
the close tolerances required by densely packed boards and
avoiding the pollution caused by mechanical routers are all
part of the challenge.
The LPKF MicroLine 350Ci meets these challenges by
using laser technology for depaneling and routing. Non-contact
cutting with a laser means no mechanical stress on the boards
or components, no debris, and no extra cost for tooling. The
high positioning accuracy of the 350Ci allows for component
placement closer to the edge of a board. The laser beam is
able to cut intricate shapes and also increases the net usable
area on the panels.
Produce more challenging designs
The MicroLine 350Ci will cut intricate shapes without any
mechanical impact on the circuit. PCB designers will enjoy the
liberty to place components closer to the edge of the board or
to utilize more intricate shapes to better fit the form factor of
the final product.
Cutting arbitrary shapes with
High productivity
smallest tool diameters
The superior cutting speed of the MicroLine 350Ci provides
better overall productivity than traditional depaneling methods,
especially with thinner materials.
Superior quality and instant turnaround
Laser cutting is significantly more precise than other depaneling methods. It doesn’t generate any debris or dust that could
affect sensitive electronic components. The system works
straight from CAD data and does not require specific tooling,
so even small quantities can be produced instantly.
