Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.
Looking Forward to APEX EXPO 2026
I-Connect007 Magazine previews APEX EXPO 2026, covering everything from the show floor to the technical conference. For PCB designers, we move past the dreaded auto-router and spotlight AI design tools that actually matter.

Seika Announces New Options and Features for SAYAKA PCB Routers
February 2, 2023 | Seika Machinery, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Seika Machinery, Inc., a leading provider of advanced machinery, materials and engineering services is pleased to announce new options and features available for stock SAYAKA PCB routers. SAYAKA routers are capable of MES connection and support customers with achieving optimized production control within the scope of Industry 4.0.
The new Sayaka PCB Router Machine | Seika Machinery Inc (seikausa.com) video demonstrates the new features as well as customer testimonials and upgraded models offered by the manufacturer including table top, stand-alone, twin-table and inline routers. Features include 2D barcode reading, CCD camera, easy point-and-click programming software, offline programming software and more. The newest model features a robot interface that makes it easy for users to connect with their robots and automated applications.
There is no better way to depanel a printed circuit board than with the Sayaka PCB depaneling Router. This PCB depaneler is the answer for hassle-free PCB depaneling through the employment of a router bit that minimizes stress on components. The high-speed spindle included in the machine speeds up cutting and maintains precision, while also allowing for flexible panel designs with various cutting patterns.
SAYAKA PCB Routers also cut down on bit replacement with the router bit depth adjustment system, which automatically shifts up to five depth levels. The PCB router bit maximum cutting speed is 50mm per second, while the traveling speed is a maximum of 800mm per second. With a built-in fixture-based dust vacuum system, the PCB depaneling system is sure to be clean and efficient. This prevents warping, and takes full advantage of vacuum strength for the most effectual dust collection.
