The mechanical processing of printed circuit boards involves various processes:

1. Drilling
Holes for components and conductors are created by drilling. Special CNC drilling machines are used for this.

2. Routing
This process is used to shape printed circuit boards or to create cut-outs for certain components. CNC routing machines are used to create precise shapes and contours.

3. Cutting & Scoring
Cutting or scoring tools are used to cut circuit boards to the required size or to create break points where the circuit board can be broken or folded.

4. Deburring
After drilling or routing, sharp edges and burrs are removed to improve the quality of the PCBauch: gedruckte Schaltung, engl.: PCB – Printed circuit boar… More and prevent injuries.

5. Contour routing
This process is used to cut the outer shape of the PCBauch: gedruckte Schaltung, engl.: PCB – Printed circuit boar… More to adapt it to specific requirements.

6. Breaking points
For PCBs that are manufactured in panel, it is necessary to stabilize them via scoring lines or predetermined breaking points so that they can be easily removed from the panel after the assembly process without too much stress on the PCBauch: gedruckte Schaltung, engl.: PCB – Printed circuit boar… More and the components.

7. Punching
A process for punching large quantities of printed circuit boards to a defined external dimension in a very short time. A relatively cost-intensive punching tool is required.

These mechanical machining processes are crucial in order to produce printed circuit boards according to the given specifications and to ensure precise electronic function.

We go into some of these processes in detail on the subpages. Please continue browsing.
