DPF 300 machine for PCB separation

Piergiacomi DPF 300 – Patented manual depaneling system, designed for separating small and medium series of PCBs.
DPF-300 cuts PCB isthmus with the same quality as an automatic system, at significantly lower costs. It is ideal for all those “intermediate” situations when the use of a manual tool would be too expensive in terms of labor, while the use of an automatic depanellizer would not justify amortization costs.

The main feature of DPF-300 is the possibility to change very fastly the milling cutter and the interchangeable guide (designed by Piergiacomi). The guide quickly assists the operator in the positioning phase and in dragging the PCB until the cut is done. Its particular shape avoids to damage the PCB in case the operator, having inserted it wrongly, doesn’t match perfectly the guide into the eyelet.
The particular design of the guide gives total protection against accidents according to safety rules.
DPF-300 has been designed to avoid problems of stress, breakage or tearing of PCBs fibers that can occur using standard blades or manual tools: situation that today, with the increasing complexity and miniaturization of processes, are not tollerated.
Thanks to the integrated extraction system positioned directly above the guide, DPF-300 can be easily placed in any working area.
Customized versions of DPF-300 are available for depanelizing circular or short boards.

Scope of supply: DPF-300 depaneling machine equipped with extraction system and cartridge filter, 1 x Standard guide in the size required by the customer, 10 x Milling cutter of the corrisponding size for cutting FR4/CEM.
Options available (NOT included): Customized circular guide, Customized short guide (length 5 mm), Milling cutters for aluminium cutting.
