ALD oxide nanolaminates efficiently protect printed circuit board components from aging effects such as corrosion and tin whisker formation. Forms ultra-thin, hermetic, inert, flexible, and protective film over whole board, isolating even the most sensitive points from the ambient conditions. Due to the nanometer-scale thickness, has negligible impact on PCB functionality.

K5000 manual and autoload depanelizer singulates multiple pre-scored printed circuit board panels in one pass. Panels up to 10.6" wide can be separated by placing onto an input conveyor to be passed onto separator blades. Comes in four configurations: as standalone straight-through operator load/unload machine, as an inline microprocessor-controlled SMEMA interface system for PCB hand-off from reflow output conveyor, as a single operator side-load system for LED lighting strips, and in an automatic PCB Rack input version for batch processing. Cutting area protected by see-through cover. Separated panels slide down an incline onto a conveyor belt or take-up tray. Up to 14 sets of blades can be placed side by side onto separator mandrels for singulating strips as thin as 0.5". Changing blade sets for different PCB panels is done from the side of the machine and takes about 15 min.
