Description

GerbView is a specialized software application that focuses on the visualization, printing, and conversion of PCB design files, especially in the Gerber and ODB++ formats. This application provides an extensive array of features that enable users to analyze, visualize, and manipulate PCB files, thus serving as an essential resource for both PCB designers and manufacturers alike. Users can access and display a variety of file types, including Gerber (RS-274D and RS-274X), ODB++, Excellon, PDF, DXF, and HPGL/2 formats. It not only supports both RS-274D and RS-274X Gerber formats but also facilitates the conversion of older Gerber files into the more modern RS-274X extended format. Moreover, GerbView features a comparison tool that highlights the discrepancies between different design revisions, providing essential support for version control and quality assurance in the design process. Its user-friendly interface further enhances its appeal, making it accessible for users of varying experience levels in PCB design.

Description

Valor process engineering solutions streamline the production of high-quality, uniform surface mount technology (SMT) process materials, allowing you to effectively address the engineering requirements of high-mix, low-volume manufacturing. Regardless of whether the input comes from advanced ECAD design tools or standard Gerber files, Valor process engineering solutions can generate all necessary PCB documentation from a single digital twin product model, which minimizes machine workload prior to finalizing any program. The process of data preparation, encompassing CAD import, BOM import, panelization, and part data management, constructs the digital twin of the PCB assembly once and serves all process requirements. This model can be utilized to provide complete and uniform information for stencil design, SMT programming, inspection programming, test programming, and assembly work instructions. Additionally, Valor process engineering solutions facilitate the preservation of manufacturing expertise, encompassing best practices, comprehensive libraries, and much more, ensuring that your production processes remain efficient and informed. This capability not only enhances productivity but also contributes to maintaining a competitive edge in the ever-evolving manufacturing landscape.
