PCB-Investigator supports the export of your layout data in multiple 3D formats, like the STEP format.
Convert your data from 2D to 3D and bridge the world of electronics and mechanics. An effective flow of information between the various involved departments and cross-team working open up unforeseen opportunities.
By using the AOI analysis provided by PCB-Investigator, you are able to guarantee the subsequent testability even during the design process and therefore reduce the production costs!
Analyze your designs in 2D and 3D with the help of the Automatic Optical Inspection!
By using the new Design Rule Check (DRC) of PCB Investigator's Bare Board Analysis, you can easily ensure the manufacturability of your PCB design!
The main purpose of PCB Assembly Analysis is to ensure fast placement and good solder ability.
We created the advanced Component Analysis Plug-in to find all components causing soldering or placement issues.
Component Report creates documentation drawings with an overview of all components. It creates a drawing with highlighted components to use in EMS assembly fabrication.
When developing circuits with more than 30V, certain security parameters will need to be considered. For leakage current prevention the layout must meet minimum distance requirements as those defined in a series of standards such as DIN EN 60664 VDE 0110, IPC2 221A or UL60950-1. PCB-Investigator is able to offer an automated leakage current analysis to meet those requirements!
Change tracking is an important element in the development process between Layout Designer and Developer and would be unnecessarily time-consuming without professional help.
That's why we created the Database Compare Plug-in to filter changes made by the other party.
So far, this plug-In is unique on the CAD/CAM market. It creates an overview of all important parameters of a printed circuit board.
To allow cross program data transfer between the various development and production tools, DXF (Drawing Interchange Format) is an important help.
With the DXF Export Plug-in you can export DXF data from your PCB layout.
Use this plug-in for a rough overview of the assembly or to make placement suggestions for your designer.
For that purpose you can edit properties of selected components and change their position on the board.
A printed circuit board runs through many different steps from its development and design to its production.
With PCB-Investigator Embedded, you enable every involved person to work with PCB-Investigator without buying more licenses or running more time-consuming installations.
Create reports with details of different analysis results and a design overview in MS Word.
Change tracking between Layout Designer and Developer is an important element in the development process and would be unnecessarily time-consuming without professional help.
That is why we created the Graphic Board Compare Plug-in to filter changes made by the other party graphically.
The Hazard Analysis Plug-in provides a risk analysis to find possible shorts in seconds.
Use the results to predict faults and protect your design.
This Plug-In creates very high resolution bitmap graphics of your PCB data to use them e.g. in your AOI machines as reference.
A variety of settings prior to the export guarantees an output according to your requirements.
PCB-Investigator Import for IDF Format.
There are implementation for IDF 2.0 and 3.0
The Panel Builder Plug-in is the perfect tool to plan and create production panels.
Arrange PCBs on a larger production panel with a few simple steps or automate your processes with our so called nesting algorithm. PCB-Investigator even enables the merging of different PCBs on one panel.
The Shortcut for Top/Bottom View Plug-in is a free plug-in, that makes your workflow more effective.
The two icons on the toolbar allow a one-click-switch from top to bottom view. As you can see in the setup screenshot, key shortcuts for a quick switch are available as well.
Using testpoints is a useful way to make sure that electronic connections on the printed circuit board work. Optimize the analysis with our Testpoint Report Plug-in.
