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

Is there any tool or process you would recommend that can take a standard stack of Gerber files (usually 2-layer, although the potential capability to support 4-layer would be nice) and bring them all together into one set of Gerber files on a combin

Also take a look at vplan from Mentor graphics(Valor) this has very powerful CAD/CAM to centroid capability...can generate Centroid data from Gerber - creates packages , polarities and assigns Refdes with easy to use tool...

For gerbers there is Visualplace which interfaces to PCBSynergy. Ask them for a CAD PCB file with tracks removed if they are worried about their IP going missing. sarason

I have a question about the Gerber file format for PCB prototype. The CAD program I am using is a DOS version and generates Gerber files in the RS-274-D format. However, ALLPCB require the Gerber files in the RS-274-X format. I have to approach other

IPC-D-356 is a data transfer language developed by the IPC to replace Gerber. It is a far more intelligent form of physical definition for PCB/PWB. The only segment of the language that seems to have developed any market support is the physical netl

Cencorp and Ozo are two U.S. companies that make CNC routers for circuit boards. You can find their phone numbers if you search the SMT Forum archives. Products [companies] that support off-line programming include: * CIMBridge [Mitron (Genrad)] *

My AOI wish list would include features that: 1)Character recognition, 2) Correct Placement (including missing), 3) Solder joint inspection (solder present), 4) Shorts, 5)Polarity check, 6)Coplanarity, 7)gerber/or Cad compatible (no gold boards), 8)e

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

Currently in house were using circuit cam for our programming (we run mydata hence mycam). When were programming were also creating keycards for SMT,SMT inspection, thru hole and thru hole inspection. Sometimes with heavily populated boards, 2000-25
