Hey Dusan, We're working in P99SE and we panelize almost all of our designs within P99SE. The reasoning for this is that we have some features on our panel that are schematic based. I'm pretty sure we could combine the two gerber sets in camtastic, but we've got a fairly smooth process that works within P99SE. Essentially, we define the panel and then place an array of "PCB footprint" parts in this panel to define where each individual PCB will be. This "PCB footprint" is just the board outline, routing path and mousebytes to ensure that our panel features don't interfere with any of the individual board features. Once both the panel and the individual board are defined, you copy and paste the individual board into the panel. There are a bunch of "gotchas" when doing this, but I won't go into detail unless someone asks...

Hi, in regards to previous discussion on generating panel of PCBs in P99SE I would like to ask you what are your experience with this? What software tools are you using to generate panel of PCBs and what are your experience with manufacturer. Until now I only sent single PCBs to my manufacturer and "engineering cost" for preparing panel of PCBs just went too high. I would like to do this my self and save my company some of the charges. Thanks, Dusan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
