DFF (Design For Fabrication)

Before putting PCB into production, a comprehensive analysis of the manufacturability of the product is conducted following the design data and taking into account the actual processing and production process requirements. In the meantime, it enables one button to output the analysis report quickly.

CAMPro DFF Feature:

  • Built-in analysis templates that R-PCB/HDI used all over the industry. It makes CAMPro DFF approachable without the need for introduction and a lot of training.
  • Output the analysis report in just one click, saving the time of taking screenshots manually.
  • The report is easy to read and contains general reviews, images, coordinates, and other information.

DFA (Design For Assembly)

During the PCB manufacturing process, Assembling components is usually the most time-consuming and expensive process. The purpose of PCB assembly is to correctly place components on a PCB board.

For the Assembly process to complete successfully, you need to know as much as possible whether the assembly is applicable in future assemblies.

CAMPro DFA Feature:

  • The components can be customized to be classified, and the components with different functions can be analyzed according to different specification parameters.
  • Output the analysis report in just one click, saving the time of taking screenshots manually.
  • The report is easy to read and contains general reviews, images, coordinates, and other information.

Net Tracer

Optimal tool for net tracing: Net tracer, Trace length, Line length, Via count details, Output report

 Net Tracer is a useful tool that is applied to trace the relationship between PCB networks. It can integrate the relationship between CAD and components of the current job, as well as trace circuit signals from Net/Component at will. Besides, it can also keep tracing records and display the length of the trace.

  • Track all relevant nets from a component or Net instead of tracking manually.

  • Search a specific Component/Net/Pin by name.

  • The relevant component information can be found by clicking the signal line on the graphic interface.

  • The traced record can be saved automatically, showing the Trace length.

Browse all relevant component information

By selecting the component serial number, the component name, or clicking a component, the description and details of all the different components related can be obtained at a time. Automatically trace the line signal, and automatically calculate the trace length, via quantity, and drill depth.

Export Traced Summary Information

CAMPro enables to obtain all the relevant information, and automatically collects, organizes and outputs the report.

Copper Area Measurement tool

Copper consumption cost calculation, preventing plate warping due to uneven plate thickness

1. Calculate copper/gold usage rate: Evaluate costs in the design phase.

2. Consider copper thickness:

PCB Panelization Tool

Once the PCB area and the actual laminate have a size difference after the Layout engineer completes the PCB wiring, it will increase the unnecessary production cost. Therefore, before the PCB is put into production, the PCB will be put into panelization, using the plate with the best efficiency utilization, thereby reducing the production cost.

 At present, the functions provided by the PCB design tools are mainly aimed at the circuit board design, but the layout requirements in the actual production and processing are not considered. Therefore, It is usually necessary to use different CAM software to deal with the problems and sometimes needs to choose whether or not to adopt a mirror board to lower the production risk.

 On the other hand, if we deal with PCB layout design manually in a traditional way, it means a lot of work time, energy, and communication cost. Moreover, if the PCB design needs to be updated again, all the layout processes will have to be repeated again, which is quite a problem for engineers. Even worse, the delivery time will be delayed.

In order to optimize the panelization process, SYMMA Technology has designed a series of intelligent and automatic PCB panelization design tools, which can directly access the PCB design single board to deal with panelization design.

CAMPro provides features to customize the size of the substrate, the layout edge considering coupon simultaneously, and automatically calculates the optimal utilization rate of the substrate according to the size.

CAMPro PCB panelization tool offers various customized functions to apply to all situations and requirements of PCB panelization. If the PCB design changes, it can be synchronized through one click to help users to solve complex panelization issues so as to speed up the R&D process. CAMPro PCB panelization tool will definitely help you to optimize your work process.
