METHOD AND CIRCUIT BOARD PANEL FOR PREVENTING ASSEMBLY-LINE DELAMINATION AND SAGGING FOR CIRCUIT BOARD MANUFACTURING

摘要

Board delamination during the singulation from a board panel and board sagging during front-end assembly are two biggest problems encountered in cellular manufacturing lines. The method (700) and circuit board panel (600) of the present invention substantially eliminate assembly-line delamination and sagging for circuit board manufacturing. A number of slots are punched to fit into a circuit board profile. V-grooves are cut along each of the circuit board profiles through the slots and directly opposite on a top and bottom of the circuit board. Thus, optimization of the cut-outs and v-groove configurations eliminate tearing/delamination and substantially reduce sagging.
