I usually send it to smtervice@comcast.net They do it for me about $ 25 per program

Rob, you can always create a program and inspect the paste with your Checkplot. If you want to take it further though, you will need a centroid file. With centroid file you can lock pads to belong to a reference designator. When you do so you will n

Depends on the programming that needs to be done - there is free software available such as GERBV - 'http://gerbv.geda-project.org/' but not that easy to use. For comparing BOM's there is some free software called MELD - http://meldmerge.org/ that's

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, Basically the software extracts Centroid data from the Gerber automatically. We wish to export the centroid data in different pick and place machine formats so that this file can be imported in the machine directly. To be able to do so I need sa

Hello Mark, The centroid data you are currently using to program the MV-2HTL may be used with either platform. However, the libraries cannot be shared due differences in camera resolution. The MV-2HTL will have a 1.3 megapixel camera versus the 2 m

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

Rob, I have done it different ways. For the centroid you can do offline CircuitCAM or Valor or even pure Excell. I have used even pick and place machines files to extract data for AOI/SPI programming. These locations and coordinates are already there

has anyone used the above software from GraphiCode? kindly give us feedback on how easy it is to extract centroid data from a gerber file? any limitations that we need to be aware of during the conversion? thanks in advance
