K4000 - Motorized Linear-Circular Blade PCB Depanelizer

K4000 - Motorized Linear-Circular Blade PCB Depanelizer Description:

The K4000 motorized linear blade depanelizer is designed for high volume singulation of scored and skip scored Printed Circuit Boards.

• No programming necessary. (Switch select operating mode and speed)
• Singulate panels with components up to 2.5"
• 18" standard, 24" long blade versions.
• Large wheel version also available.

Simply place the scored section of the PCB onto the linear blade and step on the foot switch to split the panels. The top circular blade can be adjusted up and down to provide a cutting gap most suitable. Adjustable right and left blade guards assure operator safety and can be set to only allow the blade to pass over the scoreline. The front support table is adjustable. Operating mode is switch selectable for speeds and for continuous or intermittent blade travel. In intermittent mode the blade will move as long as the operator holds down the foot switch.

Available in standard 18" linear blade model and long 24" linear blade model for extra long PCB panels. Blades are flat on one side with a tapered profile on the other, for panels with high components close to the edge of the board, the blades are available in a thin edge version. For additional safety, a laser protective beam is available. Dust extraction unit and conveyor belt are available separately. The conveyor is built with a light sensor at the end to stop travel until the operator removes panels.

K Series PCB Depanelizers

All of the K series depanelizers use the same principle of circular blade on circular blade or circular blade on linear blade operation to separate the panels by applying pressure along the remaining material of a scoreline. The blades for the K1000 to the K6000 are flat on one side, so boards with components up to the edge of the scoreline can be separated. The K7000  has extra thin blades for boards with very tight component spacing.
