Application of FPC flexible boards in industrial production

FPC, also known as flexible printed circuit board, is a graphic printed circuit board made of flexible substrate, which belongs to the category of PCB circuit board. It has the characteristics of continuous automated production, high wiring density, light weight, small size, few wiring errors, small deformation, and elastic shape. It is widely used in military industry, national defense, consumer electronics and other industries. It has a wide range of applications in the field of FPC, such as aerospace, military, mobile communications, laptops, computer peripherals, PDAs, digital cameras, etc.

The traditional stamping method used for FPC soft board splitting has the advantages of high processing efficiency and the disadvantages of serious stress damage to FPC soft board splitting, long manufacturing cycle and high mold opening cost. Therefore, for a long time, the production of FPC soft boards has been suitable for mass production, not small batch production, and the processing procedures are cumbersome, the varieties and shapes are different, the cost is high, and the cycle is long. Therefore, it is necessary to find a new process flow and introduce the FPC soft board splitting process flow.

Compared with traditional cutting methods, laser cutting does not require any pre-production, can cut a variety of materials, non-contact processing, no tool wear, and can process parts of different shapes without changing the "tool", just changing the laser output parameters. The laser cutting process has low noise, low vibration, and no pollution. As long as the drawings are entered into the computer, one-click processing and production can be carried out, without manual loading and unloading, simple operation, reducing most of the labor time cost, and realizing fully automated production.

Advantages of Laser Cutting:

1. Non-contact processing, no damage to materials, high cutting quality, and not affected by stress.

2. Reduce production costs, no waste, fully automated production, no labor costs and various molds.

3. High precision, precision UV cold light source, no burrs on the cutting edge, no overflow of glue, no carbonization.

4. High production efficiency, fully automatic production, double-station configuration, double efficiency.

5. Long service life and simple maintenance.
