Abstract
An apparatus for scribing the coating on a coated panel; comprising a base, at least one linear guide affixed to the base, a moveable table, a pivotable bracket mounted on the base, a cutter element mounted on the bracket; a loading mechanism positioned on top of the bracket, such that when the cutter element in the cutter assembly is brought into contact with a panel positioned on the moveable table, the loading mechanism applies a uniform force to the panel position on the table. The cutter element in contact with the panel scribes the panel through the coating thereby forming a scribe of at least one line on the panel.
