N200 punch separates round and odd-shaped panels without dust. Is a top-down air-operated punch for singulating tab-routed PCB panels one tab at a time. Upper and lower matching knife blade is used to pinch tabs apart. Standard die set consists of upper and lower knife for cutting a single tab at a time. Tab is positioned on the lower knife by placing routed section of the panel on a set of locating pins and holding PCB or letting it rest on support table. Cutting location can be adjusted by turning an adjustment screw; brings locating pins to desired place for cutting a tab at the board end of the material. Pins can be adjusted in the x and y direction to bring them close to the sides of the cutting blade and adjust for different diameter panels. Locating pins are mounted on quick-change blocks; can be replaced for different board configurations.
