Burr

Burr occurs around drilled holes as shown in the right hand picture.
This "Troubleshooting" guide explains about burr, especially on the front of the PCB.

Normal Hole

Hole with burr

Drilling Condition

Cause Failure condition Countermeasure
High chipload Increase of thrust force causes burr. Apply suitable chipload. (Please refer to drilling parameters.)
Low chipload Low chipload promotes wearing, and it causes burr.
Hit count to high Too many hits promotes wearing and causes burr. Apply suitable Hit Count
Raised entry board Burr occurs on the front of the PCB. Check entry board setting. Use thicker entry board.

PCB Setting

Cause Failure condition Countermeasure
Unsuitable entry board Thinner PCB's are less rigid and more likely to "ride-up" the drill, causing burr. This also applies to soft / flexible materials Using suitable thickness entry board.

Equipment

Cause Failure condition Countermeasure
Unsuitable bush and pressure foot setting A deformed bush can't press entry board properly. A worn pressure foot bush makes uneven contact. Change bush. Checking pressure foot.
Low pressure foot pressure PCB lifts more easily causing burr. Set correct pressure foot force. (Recommend: About 100-150 N, Suitable value is depends on application)
Non deburring Untouched burr. Deburring
