PCB Depaneling and Profiling
Routing is where the panel becomes the product. DLCNC machines are applied in the precision drilling and milling of irregular slots holes and frames which is the work a press tool cannot do.
Industry Pain Points
- Routing output rate limiting the whole line when only one or two spindles are cutting
- Manual pin insertion adding labour cost and introducing a position error
- Board edge quality that varies between stations on a multi head machine
- A standard table that does not match the panel format the plant actually runs
What Buyers Ask For
- The right number of spindles for the batch size rather than the largest machine available
- Repeatable profile tolerance across every station
- A table sized to the real panel format
- Depth control where the cut must not go through the board
Typical Application Scenarios
Small batch board routing
The two head R12 with a 680mm by 730mm table covers small batch work and can be supplied with a bigger table.
General production routing
The four head R14 cuts four boards per cycle on a 520mm by 650mm processing area.
Volume batch routing
The six head R16 runs three independent Z axes at 35m/min XY feed to lift the output rate.
Large or non standard formats
The LMR12 planer type machine is built on a full granite gantry frame for customized formats.
Suitable Machines
2 Heads PCB CNC Routing Machine
Two head routing machine for small batch board routing. A bigger size table can be supplied to suit your panel format.
