Gerber Output and Input


Effortlessly create Gerber translation code from AutoCAD drawings (ACAD-To-Gerber). This is the most complete Gerber code generator in the world! Additionally, the (Gerber-To-ACAD) utility can read Gerber code into AutoCAD. 

This Gerber code generator is completely unlimited in its handling of the vast array of possibilities inside AutoCAD. This converter is enhanced every year to handle requirements from customers all over the globe. If you have a special conversion problem, we can solve it!

Key Features Include:

  1. Enter an old drawing years later and simply pick GERBOUT to make a conversion. (GerbARX will remember the previous settings and make all Gerber files.)

  2. Whole families of blocks are selected for automatic flash assignment based on setting the block name prefix in a special dialog box.

  3. All AutoCAD and custom fonts are converted with any style configuration including True Type Fonts

  4. Recursive Paint and Scratch Capability

  5. Converts AutoCAD to Gerber in the time it takes to make a .DXF file.

  6. Mirrored blocks or blocks with unequal X,Y scale factors.

GerbOut (ACAD to Gerb)

  • Automatically converts all variations of AutoCAD entities to Gerber code directly from AutoCAD. No DXF files required.

  • No need to close and open the AutoCAD drawing to run the program and view Gerber files.

  • The world’s only fully-automatic AutoCAD to Gerber converter.

  • Converts AutoCAD to Gerber in the time it takes to make a .DXF file.

  • AutoCAD to NC drill and NC route converter is built in.

  • Optimizes the drill path

  • Enter an old drawing years later and simply pick GERBOUT to make a conversion. (GerbARX will remember the previous settings and make all Gerber files.)

  • All conversion information and batch files are stored inside the AutoCAD drawing being converted.

  • Batch files store and process unlimited numbers of standard user-output configurations.

  • Handles Minserts

  • Makes Gerber Arrays

  • Work from inside paper space

  • AutoCAD layer names may be picked from a list inside the drawing to add to SubBatches.

  • Whole families of blocks are selected for automatic flash assignment based on setting the block name prefix in a special dialog box.

  • Recursive Paint and Scratch Capability

  • Processes any level nested blocks and attributes with no exploding required.

  • Mirrored blocks or blocks with unequal X,Y scale factors.

  • Flashes any number of pads on the same layer or on multiple layers within the same block.

  • All AutoCAD and custom fonts are converted with any style configuration including True Type Fonts

  • Reads .SHX files. Text width may be fixed or can be set to any percentage of text height.

Gerb2CAD (Gerber-To-ACAD)

  • Reads any Gerber file directly into AutoCAD.

  • Gerb2CAD can read drill and route files into AutoCAD.

  • Auto recognition of Gerber 274D, 274X, NC drill and NC route files.

  • Automatically reads Aperture Report files from other programs and Gerber editors.

  • Any aperture files may be read using Aperwiz.

  • Convert multiple Gerber files to separate block within one DXF file.

  • Assign unique layer names and colors to entities within the block.

GerbView

  • Reads Photoplot files into AutoCAD.

  • Builds layers for easy viewing.

  • Allows editing of Gerber drawings.

  • Controls Gerber layer colors

  • Easily open aperture and Gerber files for viewing

  • Fill control

  • View control

  • Pick on an entity to list the DCode

  • Finds and highlights all entities of a particular DCode
