Automated Normalization software addresses time required for PCB region-based tolerance tightening. Two-stage system is said to optimize printing, automatically normalize results and set tighter tolerances to monitor product drift. 5D measurement, combining 2D and 3D measurements, reportedly ensures proper zero referencing. Normalization extraction takes user-selected average area, height and volume from previous inspections when being set. If a process change needs to be made, such as stencil or print settings, normalization extraction can be readily reset and applied again.

K7000 circular linear blade depanelizer singulates pre-scored PCBs with tight component spacing. Linear blade is 12" (304mm) long and has a 0.030" (0.762mm) thin symmetrical cutting edge designed for PCBs with closely spaced components. Circular blade is 3.8" (71mm) in diameter and has the same cutting edge profile as the linear blade. -- 0.030" (0.762mm) Blade is mounted on a shaft with centerline of the cutting blade passing directly through the middle of the support bearing. By placing the score-line on the linear blade and pulling the circular blade carriage across the upper score-line the panels can safely be singulated with minimal effort. Additional tooling available for safe board placement and handling during singulation.
