The ASM 500 Family consists of a translator between the AutoCAD DXF file format and the Gerber photo plotter code.
The ASM 500 Family consists of a translator between the AutoCAD DXF file format and the Gerber photo plotter code. Also included is a reverse Gerber to DXF translator and a powerful Gerber viewer and plotter.
Three versions are available with different feature sets:
ASM 501W from ASM 500 Family
Includes DXF for Gerber, Gerber for DXF and GBRVU.
The ASM 501 is a powerful DXF to Gerber translator intended to help those who want to use AutoCAD (or other mechanical drawing programs) and need to create Gerber data for photoplotting.
Simple menus guide you step by step through the translation process. Special functions help assign blocks to flashes and configure drawing apertures from polyline widths automatically.
The powerful Gerber viewer, GBRVU displays up to 48 layers simultaneously and allows you to quickly check your Gerber data before submitting your plot job.
The ASM 501 produces the RS74D standard for conventional photoplotters and also the RS274X with built-in apertures for Gerber Scientific's Crescent line of photoplotters.
ASM 502W from ASM 500 Family
General Use: Supports PCBs and is a favorite among designers of hybrids, RF circuits, microwave circuits, and analog circuits.
The ASM 502 is a powerful DXF to Gerber converter intended to help those who want to use AutoCAD (or other mechanical drawing programs) and need to create Gerber data for photoplotting.
Simple menus guide you step by step through the translation process. Special functions help assign blocks to flashes and configure drawing apertures from polyline widths automatically.
The powerful Gerber viewer, GBRVU, displays up to 48 layers simultaneously and allows you to quickly check your Gerber data before submitting your plot job.
The ASM 502 produces the RS74D standard for conventional photoplotters and also the RS274X with built-in apertures for Gerber Scientific's Crescent line of photoplotters.
ASM 500W from ASM 500 Family
All the features of ASM 501 and 502, plus line linking and boundary creation.
The ASM 500 is a low-cost but powerful DXF to Gerber translator intended to help those who want to use AutoCAD (or other mechanical drawing programs) and need to create Gerber data for photoplotting.
Simple menus guide you step by step through the translation process. Special functions help assign blocks to flashes and configure drawing apertures from polyline widths automatically.
