VUTRAX Specialised Modules

Silkscreen Renumber

Provides logical numbering of symbols or devices on a schematic or on a PCB. You can choose direction, separately on each side as appropriate, to optimise production, testing and servicing.


Silk Replace

Manipulates footprint component outlines and pad styles. Beneficial when applying resistive inks and bonded ICs to thick film hybrids.


Statistics

For quantitative analysis of the design for copper areas, track segments and width analysis, pad sizes, drilled and finished hole size, board occupancy and dimensions.


Mass Edit

A powerful graphics editor allowing global changes and/or deletions of point types, layers, track widths, pad sizes and named structures.


Technical/Mechanical Drawing

* Technical Drawing A substantial technical drawing capability is available for use with PCB designs or for any other purpose. Our customers use these features for designing their front panels, chassis, dimensioning board cut outs etc. Features include

  • Numerous styles of auto-dimensioning including angles.
  • Drawing curves and spirals.
  • Radiusing corners (filleting).
  • Area Fill, Hatch and Cross Hatch.
  • Numerous Dotted and Dashed line styles.
  • Scaled drawings (enlarged or reduced)
  • Automatic locking of drawing to isometric or similar axes.
  • Use of any Microsoft Windows TrueType Font with correct reproduction even on photoplotters.

CAM Analysis

PCB assembly and test output, both graphically and by numeric coordinates from a datum. Facilities include GLUESPOTS for Surface Mount on and Pick & Place machines, and TESTPOINT analysis for bareboard or functional testing using ATE.


3D Visualisation

* Isometric View This feature displays Isometric and/or 3rd Angle projections of the board, including component heights. Height limits can be set (varying over the board) to apply limitations imposed by the boards environment. The isometric output is particularly useful for annotation to produce documentation, such as showing the position of switches and connectors.
