SimmCAD v1.0
PCB CAD to Pick & Place Converter

What the CAD Converter Does:
  • It converts CAD files from most PCB CAD system into files that can run on your Pick & Place or similar type of machine.
  • It imports both the Cad generated gerber file and component list. It then combines them to give you a graphical representation of the board.
  • It has a graphical drag and drop interface which makes it easy to spot errors and fix them.
  • It provides offline editing prior to exporting as a program for your specific machine.
  • It uses a flexible import tool for importing component lists and gerber files from most CAD packages.
  • It uses a flexible export tool for exporting formatted text for use in your specific machine.
  • It saves you $ by freeing up your machine and speeding up the conversion/programming process.
