Re: Place more than one (same !) PCB at the time
I say unto you ... "Keep It Simple ..." ;-) Daniel, I surely agree ! Maybe it's a good idea that I emphasize that the discussion is merely about "please be careful because this is not as simple as it seems" than that I want to have something done in this realm. The real merit, o...

Re: Place more than one (same !) PCB at the time
I am afraid that I don't really understand all the points you are making. I am sorry about that Daniel. For 100% sure my English isn't the best. I always try though. But I guess that in this case it can be a matter of not seeing through reality. For example : Why would you set up your production to...

Re: Place more than one (same !) PCB at the time
Something else : It won't be as easy as "multiplying" the positions. I mean, there will be a small offset between two PCBs (think 0.2 mm - or even more like, 2mm (not my screenshot example but the situation with small stand-offs in between the PCBs)). Now what ? Now you will get rounding e...

Re: Place more than one (same !) PCB at the time
Not sure if I understand your point there Peter ... :-) Hi Daniel, Sure you'll get my point if your example data is projected onto my screenshot ... won't work. Well, the base idea is fine of course, but there's an additional offset per panel. Ok, that was clear already ? in that case it was my poi...

Re: Place more than one (same !) PCB at the time
It gets more interesting with panelized boards, just think that the first board was fully populated, but on the second the pickup failed midway through... How to start again from where it stopped? This makes me think about another decision to make ... So the suggestion here is that with panelized b...

Re: Speed up ideas and stuff.
So here : Re-initialisationLooks simple enough.
But maybe it isn't ...
(even though Juha - I think - proposes the latter himself; I will create a new topic with possible "issues" around this)

Re-initialisation
Hi, Please notice : I put this in the Feauture Fequests board while I don't even know whether the below is already in there; guess not though ... :geek: First off we must consider the components to be placed to be of some value. I mean like 4-8 euros pp and we don't like to throw away a few just bec...

Re: Speed up ideas and stuff.
Not important, but just because I didn't understand what this was really about (and in case nobody does - haha) : As how it works at the moment, it seems to be not consistent. And it it would, the subject wouldn't be there (I guess). Current working : 1. Find strip and first component (with camera)....

Re: FAQ: DipTrace pick and place data export
Besides that, the designator is the common communication means between computer the and you. So X,Y could work as identifier (togther with layer) but you wouldn't like it much if the software is talking to you in the form of X,Y means (you needing to do the same when talking to the computer).
