Substrates might require grooves for electrical isolation or for fixturing requirements. Some of the potential difficulties that require prior planning are width and depth tolerances, flatness of the bottom of the groove, and squareness of the corners.

You can avoid problems by discussing your requirements with the engineering staff at Precision Surface Technology early in your project.

Grooves can be of varying widths.
