i'd say yes, if you can prove to the pwb supplier that its an incoming
defect, not created during assembly.

[IPC-600-6012] Acceptability of Shredded Board Edge
Greetings!
We have an assembly where the board edge was ripped badly during
depanelization.
I searched through the Assembly Acceptability IPC-A-610 and didn't find
much, but in the bare board IPC-A-600 section 2.1, I can see plainly
that ours is rejectable.
The question is, can I use the BARE BOARD spec to reject an ASSEMBLY?
Or is there anything in the assembly specs that covers depanelization
damage?
thanks,
Jack
