The minimal distance btw component and the edge of pcb | 9 October, 2016

Hello, I would like to ask you about the minimal distance between components and border of pcb especially V-cut to avoid crack of component during depaneling? I need some standard (IPC or something) where is this defined? Thank you for your support

Thank you for your answer, but I am litte bit confusing. There are parameters of V-scoring but with put values. How can I get values for V-scoring for pcb 1,6mm thickenss. Thank you. M.

It depends. Are you hand breaking them, rotary knife or linear knife? Hand break you want to be about 5mm (and it isn't a great practice even then) with a rotart knife you want to keep parts probably 3mm, especially capacitors. With a linear knife we have large capacitors within 1mm of the score line routinely without any cracking issues.

Close but not to close, would have to be the spec. Or depends on your separating technology. Prerouted boards on a panel, you could go right up to the edge. V-grove you will need more distance, maybe 2mm's or more. The distance from the panel edge to the boad about 4 or 5 mm's but that is SMT machine dependent.
