What is Board outline?

As part of your design’s Gerber files, we require an outline of your board’s final shape. By doing this, you may control your final result and ensure conductors and components have a safe clearance from the edge. We at Hopetimepcb require a clearance of 0.2mm (8mil) for standard routing and 0.4mm (16mil) for V-score edges,between your copper and board edge,to allow for manufacturing tolerance. A larger clearance is preferred, if possible. Edge connectors do not require this clearance . We are capable of cutting complex shapes to your board at no additional cost. Our minimum cutter size 0.8mm, thus all cut-outs, must be larger than this. Otherwise,they may be a slot hole. Our outer board tolerance is +/-0.15mm.
