Gerber Technology and GerbARX Stand Alone

GerbARX has been packaged into a new software package called ACAM - A Gerber and GDS Tool which is bundled with GDS tools into a single host graphics engine that runs on Windows, no AutoCAD required. More Infomation About ACAM for Windows

The Original GerbARX is available for AutoCAD 2018-2023.

GerbARX creates Gerber code from DWG and DXF drawings and reads Gerber code data into the design environment. Gerber automatically converts all variations of the drawing entities to Gerber code directly.  This is the world’s only fully-automatic Gerber converter. 

It creates the Gerber code in the time it takes to save a .DXF file.  All conversion information and batch files are stored inside the drawing being converted for reuse.  Any number of layers may be combined to make a plot and any number of plots may be combined in a run.

Gerber processes any level of nested blocks and attributes with no exploding required.  Mirrored blocks or blocks with unequal X, Y scale factors are handled. It flashes any number of pads on the same layer or on multiple layers within the same block.  All standard and custom fonts are converted with any style configuration.

Features for Gerber Output:

  • Automatically converts all variations of entities to Gerber code directly, No DXF files required.

  • No need to close and open the drawings to run the program and view Gerber files.

  • Optimizes the drill path.

  • Enter an old drawing years later and simply pick GERBOUT to make a conversion.

  • All conversion information and batch files are stored inside the drawing being converted.

  • Batch files store and process unlimited numbers of standard user-output configurations.

  • Makes Gerber Arrays.

  • Work from inside paper space.

  • Layer names may be picked from a list inside the drawing to add to SubBatches.

  • Whole families of blocks are selected for automatic flash assignment based on setting the block name prefix in a special dialog box.

  • Recursive Paint and Scratch Capability.

  • Processes any level nested blocks and attributes with no exploding required.

  • Mirrored blocks or blocks with unequal X,Y scale factors.

  • Flashes any number of pads on the same layer or on multiple layers within the same block.

  • Custom fonts are converted with any style configuration including True Type Fonts.

  • Reads .SHX files. Text width may be fixed or can be set to any percentage of text height.

  • Includes a powerful tool-set.
