Current IssueEngineering Economics
The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.

October 7, 2022 | FKN SystekEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The K4000 Motorized linear blade depanelizer is available in 18” to 48” versions. Separating skip scored V-Scored PCB panels up to 48" long is made simple and easy with the K4000 PCB depanelizer from FKN Systek. Just place the bottom scoreline of the PCB onto the linear blade and step on a guarded foot switch to bring the circular blade across the top scoreline for clean separation of the PCB panels. Right and left blade guards assure operator safety. The front and back support and take up table are height adjustable.
The K4000 L18 and K4000 L24 are available with optional light beam safety curtain across the front of the blades for additional operator safety, as well as an optional esd safe belt conveyor to bring singulated PCBs to the side for easy removal. An infrared sensor on the end of the conveyor will stop the belt for PCBs with components on them. Scrap pieces will pass underneath the sensor beam into a discard bin.
The K4000L36 IS available with adjustable support brackets on the input side. . Adjustable board stops on the back side speed up score-line to blade alignment.
FKN Systek depanelizers are made in the USA. Tooling and in-line systems are available upon request. Blades are made of long lasting tool steel and can be resharpened several times
