Auto Pin Insert Function for PCB Routing Machines

Traditional pin insert is done by hand manually. It pushes up labour cost and it has an accuracy problem. DLCNC unveiled the first routing machine with an auto pin insert function.

The Problem With Manual Pinning

Pins are inserted by hand which adds labour to every panel and introduces a position error that the machine then has to work around.

The routing machine inserts the pins automatically. It improves work efficiency and reduces the work intensity on the human operator.

The patent was granted in November 2019 and the machine was brought to the HKPCA show in 2019 where more customers became interested in the new function.

Around 80 percent of routing machine orders now specify the auto pin insert function.

The function is specified with the routing machine build alongside table size depth control and tool cassette capacity.
