Hi All,
 I need your in-the-trenches opinions on panalization dwgs. An engineer at another plant of ours, wants us to include a panalization dwg with our pcb fab dwg to "reduce cost and provide complete design integrity against a vendor incorrectly scoring or putting perforating tabs in the wrong place". I think of this as methodising a process that I don't have to, but I may be wrong. It has also been suggested that we provide dimensions for HASL instead of using a min/max note, again I have never been bit by this problem, I believe that if you have a good team relationship with your suppliers you both make money, thanks.
