Panelization

 ItemCapabilitiesNotes
 Panelization without space0mmThe space between PCB boards is 0mm.
 Panelization with space≥1.6mmThe space between panelized PCBs should be at least 1.6mm. If this requirement is not met, the routing process may become difficult and inefficient.
 Panelized round board≥20mmx20mmThe size of a single round board should be at least 20mm x 20mm. Panelize the boards with stamp holes and add tooling strips to all four edges.
 Panelized castellated holes boardPanelize with stamp holes and add tooling strips on four board edgesThe distance between a castellated hole and the board corner should be greater than 2mm. The recommended diameter for a stamp hole is between 0.5mm and 0.8mm. The recommended distance between two stamp holes is between 0.2mm and 0.3mm.
 Min. width of breakaway tab≥4mmThe minimum width of a breakaway tab is 4mm. For breakaway tabs with mouse bites, the minimum width is 5mm.
 Min. edge rails≥3mmIf you choose panelization by QukoPCB, we will add 5mm edge rails on both sides by default.
