Circular Blade Depanelizer with XY Table

Standard XY table with custom tooling simplifies the singulation of Simm Cards.

The K2000 motorized circular blade depanelizer is the safe and easy way to separate prescored PCBs without dust or scrap. Now available with XY table for improved board handling.

PCB panels are singulated by passing the scoreline between two circular blades. Front and back blade guards assure operator safety. An adjustable upper front blade guide assures that only the scoreline can be passed to the cutting area.

When using the XY table, the operator places the PCB onto the guide rails of the table and brings the scoreline between the top and bottom blade guards to pass it to the cutting area. The motor driven lower blade of the K2000 will pull the PCB through to separate the panels. Two cutting speeds are available for optimal PCB separation. Panels up to 12.5 inches long can be singulated. Blades are made of long lasting tool steel and can be resharpened.

The tooling plate for Simm cards allows exact placement of the PCB matrix onto the moveable base. The plate is positioned on the right side for singulating the carrier strip on the left of the panels and then moved to the other side to singulate the remaining carrier strip. Adjustable end stops for the tooling plate allow for exact positioning of the scoreline with the circular blades. Tooling pins and support rails for either side of the panel guarantee safe placement and support of the SIMM cards. The rails can be adjusted to insure that there is no contact with the components on the cards.

XY depaneling for PGA boards

The operator places the panel on a set of adjustable guide rails and brings it forward to a board stop to set the score line on the cutting plane. The X table is mounted on a set of linear bearings to accurately keep the pcb panel lined up vertically and horizontally for safe and precise panel singulation.

XY Depaneling for PGA Boards (or other small xy matrix PCBs) is made easy with separate tooling to guide the singulation from the rectangular matrix, and to help locate the single strips which result from the first operation.

Panels as small as .25" X .5" can be set on the guide rails of the strip block for clean and simple singulation from the scored grid.
