PCB Punching & PCB Routing

Difference Between PCB Punching and PCB Routing

1. Productivity for routing is much higher 

A. Routing Cycle time：about 60S for one MCPCB panel.

According to work 8 hours a day, Daily production capacity

=8*60*(60/60)

=480 panels

B. Punching Cycle time：10S for same MCPCB panel.

According to work 8 hours a day, Daily production capacity

=8*60*(60/10)

=2880 panels

Summary：Punching capacity is six times as PCB router

2.  Cutting effect

A. Routing:Small stress, high precision, no flash

B. Punching: More stress, lower precision, little flash

3.Noise & dust

A. Routing:Less noise,more dust

B. Punching:More noise, less dust

4. Power consumption

A. Routing:

Power：2.5KW/H

Energy consumption：220V

According to work 8 hours a day,

Daily consumption：2.5*8=20kwh

Annual consumption：2.5*8*30*12=7200kwh

B. Punching: 

Power：0.5KW/H

Energy consumption：380V

According to work 8 hours a day,

Daily consumption：0.5*8=4kwh

Annual consumption：0.5*8*30*12=1440kwh

5.Maintenance costs

A. Routing: Less, only need to change program for different PCBs,

Router bit cost is much lower.

B. Punching:

Higher, need to replace new mold for different PCBs.

New mold cost is high.
