A PCB depaneling machine, literally is a machine functioning as a “depaneler”,With the rapid development of current electronic industry,the SMT presents itself has become extremely competitive in modern society.
Therefore, the name of “PCB depaneling machine” specifically denotes the specialized equipment for PCB depanelization of the entire SMT process.
As a positioning solution integrator for SMT, Jeenoce partly attributes the development of SMT whole line solve system to the introduction of imported depaneling machine from a German manufacturer which is recognized as the fasted depaneling machine for electronic processing.
Laser depaneling machine is almost the sole kind of device which irradiates the circuit board by dense laser beams and instantly fuses the exposing part of the circuit board.
However, other kinds of depaneling machines mainly basically achieved by mechanic segmentation, whose difference leads to the extensive varieties of depaneling equipment due to the distinctions of stress magnitude and operation measurement.
Compared with those expensive laser depaneling machines,and the milling cutter and the sawing type separator are preferred by common industrial mass production.
And the former-milling type gains wider usage range for its fewer limits of segmenting capability.
The introduced depaneling machine of Jeenoce combines two modes of milling cutter and sawing type.
Apart from the mechanic segmentation, fully automated depaneling machine is adopted, which can realize more accurate segmentation with marking of starting point and compares it with CAD drawings by strong algorithm.
Depaneling machines have evolved along with SMT industry which emerges with the explosive growth of the electronic field in the 21st century.
It has gradually developed from solely serving the military and high-precision industries in the 1980s to industrial, automated and intelligent production.
And also grow from simply mechanic segmentation and manual operation to basically full-automated operation nowadays.
Currently, the biggest challenge for the PCB depaneling machine is the dilemma between adaptability to precision, stress and increasing of efficiency, which can not be obtained simultaneously.
Considering this factor, the combination of milling cutter type and sawing type of depanelization probably is undoubtedly the optimal solution to mass industrial production, before the issues of speed and black edges are solved with laser technique.
There are diverse kinds of depaneling machine: routing depaneling machine (V-cut type), stamping separator, side-cutting depaneling type, milling cutter type and sawing type of depanelization and laser depaneling machine, which are classified by precision, efficiency, stress, price and many other factors.
For the low-end market, routing, side-cutting and stamping types of depaneling machines are suitable because of the market’s low requirement for accuracy, stress, surface treatment and others, and limited budget.
By contrast, for mid-and-high-end manufacturers with mass production, their complex cutting paths are more fit for milling type and sawing type of depaneling machines.
The machines adopted by Jeenoce possess low cost of usage and maintenance, high efficiency and high yield rate, contributing to more saving with low cost through the entire production cycle,which the laser depaneling machine is temporarily applied in the scenarios with high added value.
Depaneling machine is divided into offline and inline types.
In the 3C field, rigid PCB is used for high-precision cutting of mainboards such as mobile phone, while flexible PCB is used for wearable devices, etc., requiring low-stress segmentation.
And PCB process for automotive electronics requires measures of static-proof and dust-proof.
Besides, the experience of Jeenoce’s collaboration with automative-grade enterprises demonstrates that rather much remaining dust on medical machines determines its being more appropriate to laser depaneling device instead of mass production.
Jeenoce can maintain the highest stability of up to 98% in aerospace industry.
In the new energy field, most PCB substrates are large-size thick board,and Jeenoce is also able to directly tackle the cutting problems of aluminum and copper substrates.
