Hello, I'm looking for a friendly suggestions or best practices for creating Component Database. For example how do you discern different types of SOIC8, with different body size and pitch between leads? How do you categorize and name components? An

The UFP was a designation for "ultra-fine-pitch"; but, for the most part, you should be able to get the same placements out of both machines. Anything 0402 or above can be mechanically centered. The UFP machine will lean on optical centering for .5

Gerber EZ is not available on the Accuflex platform. Speedline (now ITW EAE), like most manufactures, do not want to offer new tools on old platforms. There is one feature in the AccuPro software that I don't believe was added in any version of the
