Phil, as a rule of thumb, measuring machines (such as Zeiss, View and others) should be ten times more accurate, than the placement machine, in order to provide measuring values (CPK). AOI are meant to detect missing and wrong components, but not mea

hi john we have software that we been selling for over 30 years now that programs Pick&Place and AOI machines, etc. from Gerber only data, CAD data or XY rotation files and BOM files. Here are a couple of links: *** ProntoPLACE - Assembly machin

Can not speak for CircuitCam is made by Aegis Software I veliveve sound like need to get understanding of how tool is supposed to work to extract-create centroid positions. Using Gerber Only is a pattern match and cacluate logic process - ie make pac

Once having those centroid-data using a spreadsheet to convert them to what ever I needed worked fine for me in many cases over years. It just needs a little brainwork and a good knowledge of machine configuration. CAM-software might do the job as we

Mydata users, is there a way to use Microsoft Excel to create pick and place programs? I have my centroid data with the following: 1st column: Reference designator 2nd column: part number 3rd colum: x 4th column:Y 5th column: theta Now,using Excel

Brick (if that is your real name), Placement machines use centroid data to place parts. Generally this is derived from the "copper" that is etched on the board. Thus why we use the fiducials for alaignment. During board manufacturing, holes are d

Hi, We're currently developing a software for automatic extraction of CAD (Centroid) data from the Gerber. We're in the final leg of development right now. To make things even simpler for the end user, we're thinking of adding the functionality to

Hi, We already export in plain ASCII format with the PCB dimensions, coordinates of all 4 corners with respect to the origin, circuit repeat offsets, and Centroid data with RefDes, X, Y, R, Part No. and Package information. However many customers ha

Hi, I don't know how many boards you do a month but something I have used for up to 10 jobs a day here is a free tool: http://www.kondner.com/files/bbsetup_Feb_2010.zip I think it is better than Aegis but then I wrote it. :-) This is a BIG too

Need some help, i'm just new with design and I need to know what software is out there that can answer all my question: able to generate/create correct stencil aperture; Can modify/ edit or redesign the main file(ODB++, Gerber, etc); Can generate cen
