How to Extend Router Bit Lifespan in PCB Depaneling Machines

Router bit lifespan in PCB depaneling machines plays a crucial role in ensuring consistent cut quality, maintaining production efficiency, and reducing operating costs. When bits wear out too fast, manufacturers face increased downtime, scrap rates, and replacement expenses — all of which directly impact profit margins. This article explores the real causes of premature tool wear, the engineering principles behind router bit longevity, and practical strategies used by leading PCB manufacturers to extend tool life. ⚙️ Understanding Router Bit Wear In PCB depaneling, router bits are exposed to high-speed rotation (up to 100,000 RPM) and continuous cutting through materials like FR4, aluminum, or polyimide. Over time, this leads to: The […]
