Good morning Mark, CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) products are designed to solve such tasks. You can try CAM350 for example. CAM350 understands different ASCII exported data from different CAD systems. CAD ASCII export contains all necessary inf

I am with a low volume hi mix CM. We have always taught our pick & place manually on the machine. We now have a newer auto programming machine but for many reasons (not uncommon for CM's) I do not have access to the original cadd data to get the ca

Gerber standard has been around for long time as a fabrication data model for PCB makers, but not very useful for assemblers as no centroid data is actually present in the data. Also netlists are no supported and have to be calcualated with software

Assembleon/Philips has their own offline programming software (PPS Gemline) to take you from CAD (they should have a gerber utility) to machine program. A lower cost aproach is something like GC-Preview with the "Plus" option to extract centroids, t

Hi, here's my 2 cents sir: You need.. a) The Gerber Data and the BOM b) Extract the XY CAD from the GERBER and build what they call Centroid Data. Save this in text format. c) Use Cad2Cad to import the centroid data and save it as Philips VIOS txt

As with most Aois centroid data is very time saving when your pcb has 20 or more components. This of course can be variable with the quality of the data and your ability to modify it to suit your needs. Omron systems can scan your pcb and merge the

It has been some time since I programmed a mirtec machine, but I think the technique would be to break the component into different banks of leads with unique locations. U25_Top, U25_Right, U25_LEft, etc... Use the centroid location to check presence

Hi Bros! I got a problem about import centroid data to a job in fuji flexa! As you know , in cad data we already have the demension of the panel. But when i import i try too much time but i can't not import to job that demension therefore i have to p
