Automatically converts a GERBER file of a PASTE layer into a DISPENSE file for use with MADELL DP2006 or PX3700 or PX/SX4700 family of machines with a PASTE DISPENSER.
Works with MOST Gerber files. It currently does NOT support Aperture Macros.
I have in the past used this for LOW VOLUME boards for DISPENSING solder paste.
For the times when a cheap chinese paste stencil is inconvenient. The only downside so far is it takes more time that a stencil.
It is extremely EASY to use and offers a wide range of options.
There are a wide range of settings to allow you to adjust the DOT and LINE dispensing.
I use it personally and I can usually generate a DISPENSER file for each new job in around 30 seconds.
It provides the following important features.
Automatic VARIABLE DOT SIZE.
Automatic LINE dispensing.
Automatic DOT ARRAYS and LINE ARRAYS for large pads.
Precision MACHINE ERROR COMPENSATION to provide the highest possible accuracy.
It is intended for use with WINDOWS XP or WINDOWS VISTA. It appears ok with WINDOWS 10 and WINDOWS 11
