ViewMate Essentials

Annual Subscription

ViewMate Essentials is a CAM software that helps designers and engineers prepare CAD data for PCB Fabrication and Assembly.

By integrating ViewMate Essentials into your workflow, you can catch errors early, ensure files are fabrication-ready, minimize costly rework, and enhance collaboration through consistent, standardized outputs.

Gerber and Drill File Editor

The Designer's Edge
CAM Made Simple, Smart.

ViewMate's Gerber and drill editor is used to view, analyze, and modify the fabrication data for printed circuit boards before they go to production. It is a final quality-control and preparation step between PCB design and fabrication, helping to avoid costly delays, rework, or scrap.

It lets PCB designers and engineers:

  1. Open and inspect Gerber and drill files for accuracy.
  2. Catch and correct errors such as missing layers, misaligned drills, or incorrect clearances.
  3. Prepare files for fabrication by renaming, reordering, or grouping layers to match the manufacturer's requirements.
  4. Verify fabrication file with DFM checks.
ViewMate Essentials Software Interface

ViewMate Essentials offers an integral solution for PCB projects.

Smart DFM

SmartDFM

SmartDFM is an automated Design-for-Manufacturing (DFM) tool that ensures your PCB files are production-ready before sending them off for fabrication. It helps you catch and correct issues early, reducing errors, delays, and wasted prototypes.

PCB Navigator

PCB Navigator

PCB Navigator is a software tool that lets you easily search and inspect specific elements using your PCB fabrication files (Gerber and Drill files. Bill of Materials (BOM) and XY Data). It cross-references part numbers, footprints and placements coordinates.

Layer Organizer

Layer Organizer

PCB Layer Organizer is a software tool that helps identify and rename layers like copper, solder mask, silkscreen, solder paste, drills, and mechanical outlines. It also helps arrange layers to match the physical PCB stackup.
