BluePrint also allows the importation and use of audio and video files to be imported and stored with the documentation package. Components, pins, assembly mounting sides, layers, vias, nets, assembly variants, part attributes, drill holes and symbols, are just a few of the data records that can be imported into BluePrint to accurately create PCB document elements.ĭigital content such as JPEGs, BMPs, GIF, etc may be imported and used in the drawing. PCB documentation must capture all of the information necessary to not only build the product today, but also any repeat builds in the future – eliminating any guesswork.īluePrint uses PCB CAD data to drive the documentation process. It also gets archived to ensure later production runs can be repeated with the same level of consistent quality. Documentation drives the procurement process, aids manufacturing engineering and is used in final inspection to verify the product was built to engineering’s specification. Comprehensive documentation records the engineering “intent” of a design specifying the form, fit and function of the PCB. PCB documentation creates the manufacturing specification for an electronic product.
Reduces documentation time by as much as 60-80%. Lowers documentation cost and time, and increases detail accuracy. With ECOs, since all views, details, and charts of the PCB remain linked to the original PCB CAD data, they are instantaneously refreshed in BluePrint whenever the original CAD data is changed. With BluePrint, PCB engineering groups can expect to reduce the documentation process to a fraction of the time it normally takes – even more when engineering change orders (ECOs) are required. Allow viewing of documents without the application – web, PDF, or viewer. Support instantaneous engineering changes (ECOs). Store all information associated with the PCB assembly in one electronic “release package”. Create live and interactive documentation with hyperlinks and multi-media. Use PCB intelligence to create common drawing elements.
Remove constraints of PCB CAD but retain design intelligence. Automatically create PCB views, details, and tables from PCB CAD data. The result is an electronic document which better articulates the instructions for successful PCB manufacturing. Erste Hinweise zu BluePrint V6 finden Sie hier.īluePrint-PCB “knows” it is creating a PCB document and imports the entire PCB CAD database once toĪutomatically create and link unlimited PCB views and details, while at the same time maintaining the design intelligence and overcoming the constraints imposed by both PCB and mechanical CAD alternatives.
