Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

FKN Systek K5000 Singulates 10 LED strips in One Pass
August 10, 2023 | FKN SystekEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

The K5000 separates V-Scored LED strips up to 48” long. Singulate multiple V-scored PCB panels in one pass with FKN Systek K5000 PCB depanelizers. Any length panel up to 10.4" wide can be separated by placing onto an input conveyor which brings the panels into the singulation cartridge. This is the ideal system for high volume in-line singulation of LED lighting strips.
The K5000 is available as an in line system with SMEMA interface and PLC control system, or as a stand alone operator attended unit. The cutting area is protected by a see through cover to prevent access during operation. Rugged and reliable, the K5000 depaneling system has been proven in over 10 years of production with many high volume contract manufacturers. This machine will process a standard PCB in under 10 seconds, keeping up with the output from any production line. Easily singulate V-Scored Boards of up to 1 Million per year.
Separated panels are passed onto a conveyor belt or output tray. Up to 10 sets of blades can be placed side by side onto the blade cartridge. Changing blade sets for different PCB panels is done from the side of the machine and takes about 15 minutes.
