Doug, It always seems easier to fix one or two problems by eye at the time. The real problem comes when the customer wants the same board run again later. You're okay if you saved the corrected placement routine, but if you end up moving the job t

Has anyone had success with either datamyte or unisoft software? I have looked at both and have a list of pro's and con's for both. I'm wondering if these are worthier persuing or if there is something better. We are looking to track defects througho

Trying to step through placement XYs in a gerber viewer... help!

We're working on bringing more and more of our SMT programming offline and the latest things are rotations and package vs. land verification. Is there software out there that will allow me to import a XY data file (Pick and place centroid data) into

Convert Gerber files to Cad (text file).

What do you want to do with the gerber file? Most gerber outputted data is in ascii and can be read with notepad or any text editor. If you want to view the gerber data there are free viewers on the web ie: gerbv.sourceforge.net Hope this helps.

Smart Sonic has an entry level component to our StencilScan AOI system called the Assembly Module GT. The Assembly Module GT is low cost and will get the job done. Plus, the Assembly Module GT can be upgraded easily to the other Assembly Module pro

what software is out there that will extract XY centroid from gerber data?

Hi, From our experience, Gerber files are accompanied by IPC type files. These files usually have extensions: IPC, NET, 356. We have developed products that are designed to help in programming part of the SMT machine, based on these files beyond sta

If you want to go down this path there is a piece of free software from a dutch programmer called Visualplace. It is available here. http://www.compuphase.com/visualplace/visualplace_en.htm If you want to work from CAD files there s my sofware call

Gerber in general is not best data set for assembly, alot of processing has to be done, manually or via software tools, all with their nice features, but as you state there is no actual datum XY , pin 1 , rotation references thus has to be 'generated

Re: Which SMD placement machines are easiest to use?

Electronics Forum | Thu Jan 27 06:12:14 EST 2000 | Dean

Opeator point of view: 1. eassy to read menues. Organized structure. Large text and use of color to indicate important info status...green=good, yellow= warning, red=fatal etc. Simplicity rules in this realm. GUI are great for operations screens

Is there some general file format for chip placement on pcb

Electronics Forum | Mon Nov 17 08:01:44 EST 2003 | stefwitt

The format is X,Y Theta of the component center for all placement machines. Gerber data can be useless, unless you have the reference from pin 1 to the component center. Some machines offer a CAD convertion tool. I don't know any machine, which can
