WISE Software Solutions VisualCAM SR6 v16.9.150
VisualCAM is a powerful Manufacturing Engineering CAM software package that addresses the wide-ranging needs of EDA professionals. For the PCB layout engineer, VisualCAM offers a complete set of Design Verification features. If you are a Bare-Board PCB engineer, a full range of Manufacturing Verification and Tooling features are available. Finally, VisualCAM rounds out its capabilities by offering Loaded-Board PCB engineers an array of Assembly Processing capabilities.
Design Verification
Verification of your design data is a critical step before submitting your job for production. Today's product complexities require PCB layout engineers to push spacing limits while laying out their board designs. Tighter tolerances can mean more expensive bare-boards, and thus the risks of scrap become more expensive, especially when problems are identified after assembly. VisualCAM provides you with a Dynamic DfM Analysis Suite that offers 75+ Design and Manufacturing checks. A blend of traditional design-related checks, like Trace-to-Trace and Trace-to-Pad, as well as manufacturing checks, like Acid Traps and Copper Slivers, can be found within VisualCAM. Rounding out your design verification experience is VisualCAM's graphical Netlist Comparison with Pin-Point error detection. Compare your data set against any IPC-D-356 netlist or use netlist information extracted from IPC-2581, ODB++ or, PADS ASCII files, and quickly zoom to any shorts or opens in the workspace.
Manufacturing Verification/Tooling
As mentioned above VisualCAM provides a Dynamic DfM Analysis Suite that provides both design and manufacturing related checks. The ability to save and load different rule sets allows you to verify your data against your original design spacing rules, or against your manufacturer's spacing rules. Bare-board PCB engineers and PCB layout engineers alike appreciate the more robust checking features found within VisualCAM, versus those found within traditional CAD tools. VisualCAM also helps you go beyond verification and allows you to complete your final manufacturing-related tasks with automated features like solder mask and paste mask generation. Complete production tooling can be generated using VisualCAM's Advanced Panelization capabilities. You can create unlimited panel templates to accommodate a wide range of standard panel sizes. Advanced Panelization will even let you step single designs or multiple designs within the same panel frame. Venting and thieving are fully automated and user-defined as well. VisualCAM can finalize any manufacturing process flow with a robust set of NC drill and mill capabilities, including functions such as drilled text, drilled slots, user-defined break tabs, and one of the most efficient sort engines in the industry.
Assembly Processing: Many tools on the market are adept at extracting component footprint information from intelligent data sources, but what if you need to generate an assembly program, and all you have is Gerber data? While VisualCAM is designed to work with "intelligent" data formats like IPC-2581 or ODB++ data formats, it can still operate on traditional Gerber and NC data as well. Because of this, VisualCAM is one of the only manufacturing engineering software packages that can offer you five different automated methods to reverse engineer component footprint information from Gerber data for assembly pick-and-place programming. Depending on the data available to you, you can complete a component footprint identification process in as little as a few seconds. Even when reverse engineering interactively, you can process jobs in just a few hours. You can even save and load footprint libraries, allowing you to build master libraries to help keep your output consistent. There is support for both component footprint fiducials as well as board-level fiducials. When you complete your processing, you can output the data to several formats: IPC-2581, ASCII, FATF, ODB++, or GenCAD.
Regardless of your role within the design or manufacturing process, you can use VisualCAM to ensure the production of high-quality PCBs. Add flexible pricing, convenient and responsive customer support, and you have an unbeatable Manufacturing Engineering CAM software package.
