Simple The same circuit board repeated in the panel.
Complex Different circuit boards (repeated or not) in the panel.
Mechanical processing
| Type | Advantages | Disadvantages |
|---|---|---|
| SCORING | Distance between circuit boards = 0.
Extra rigid. |
Only for edges that are straight all the way across the panel.
Recommended use of V-cut depaneling machine. |
| MILLING | Can be used with any sort of circuit board.
Precision cut. |
Distance between circuit boards = ≥1.60 mm.
Undesired burrs may be left after depaneling. |
| COMBO | Available for very small circuit boards.
Available for edges without burrs or marks. |
Requires greater separation between circuit boards, scoring axis minimum 5 mm between circuit boards. |
Type of Frames Depending on the mechanical process chosen, we recommend different types of frames.
For scoring we recommend no frame or on 2 sides and for milling we recommend 4 sides to make the panel more rigid.
