Simply go to the bar Output> Gerber / Excellon Output menu, as we see in the next picture. Then it will be prompted a message which tell us to make a checking of our design, we click on «Yes» and start making the checks, which takes seconds. Once finished, we will see a new window where you select the path where we are going to export the files, if you want to save it as. * Txt and layers that we want to export our design. In our case, we will select 4: Top Copper, Copper Botom, Drill and Mech1 (that we have created a framework like Mech1 first layer).

When you press OK, we would have finished the part of Ares, and we could move to the next point, in our case Circuit Cam which I will explain below. So we have the Circuit Cam, which is a software that allows you to import data from any PCB CAD package. So then, I will explain how to use this software in the next tutorial: How to use Circuit Cam? Besides that allows us to edit, modify, create multiple utilities, Checks Design Rules, set the isolation, etc. Once we have the Gerber / Excellon exported Layout (Ares in our case), we will open the Circuit Cam software to perform a series of modifications to our prototype. Inside the Circuit Cam application, we can see the program and the number of options available. As explained above, this is a Layout program and allows us to make the changes we want in the design. In this case we will provide insulation and set the boundary area for cutting, first of all we will be doing is importing Gerber / Excellon files. We click on the option on the left sidebar «Import», as seen in the next photo, select the exported copper Ares as CADCAM Bottom, Top copper, Mechanical1, Drill files. Once selected, a new window appears us with the layers we’ve added, and we will change the «Layer» option, setting the layer corresponding to each file in «File name», as seen in the pictures.Īfter the above, the next step is to click on the option that is right under import (in the left sidebar) «Contour routing», this option is to set the Contour Cutting. We have to select the layer «Cutting outside», modified to our liking, we will execute the changes. Then we have to make the insulation layers.

The option is in the menu bar >Tool path> Isolate. We are loading a new window and we have to make the insulation in two parts:įirst isolation of the bottom, we will leave the default tools, it is important that you have to change the settings to 1.2mm wide. Now we have to repeat the same process but with the side Copper Top, and likewise execute, to apply the changes. Having done this, we can save the file and it would be all set for the software export control CnC, Master Boad.
