PCBA Depaneling Systems

PCBA Depaneling Systems for Close Tolerance Singulating

Pioneer-Dietecs Corporation offers a complete line of press-based depaneling systems for close tolerance singulating of printed circuit boards. Pioneer presses feature unique floating die plates that eliminate time consuming die installation and expensive setup costs required for close tolerance registration.

Die changes can be made in 30 seconds.

Pioneer presses range from simple, manually-operated benchtop models, to automatic shuttle table models. Systems can be built with our simple, proprietary pneumatically-actuated air-logic systems and/or Allen-Bradley SLC 5/04 programmable logic microprocessors.

Prices range from $9,990 to $59,990 depending upon the tonnage required (from 2 tons to 25 tons), dies sizes (up to 600 mm x 600 mm), and desired features.

Dies can safely singulate within ½ mm of ceramic components and fine trace lines with no stress or strain to adversely affect delicate PCB’s, semiconductors or other delicate applications. Works equally well on skip-tab-routed or v-scored arrays.

Methodology

Typically, an operator will register the panel on tooling-hole pin locators on the lower die plate. Closing a cover will trigger the operation, shuttling the lower die plate on linear guide rails into the press. After depaneling takes place, the shuttle table automatically returns to the home position and the cover opens, allowing the operator to remove the singulated PCB’s.The entire cycle, loading to unloading, can take as little as four to six seconds.

Easy as 1-2-3
