Panelization Module (PAN) 

Panelizes Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) or Thick Film Ceramic (THKFC) designs.

Dialog box-driven input for setting detailed and precise parameters:

  • Supports standard measurement units:
    •  MIL, MM, CM, INCH
  • Tooling Holes:
    • Diameter – Shows the diameter of the tooling hole.
    • Tol + - Shows the positive tolerance of the tooling hole.
    • Tol - - Shows the negative tolerance of the tooling hole.
    • X – Shows the tooling location in the X direction.
    • Y – Shows the tooling hole location in the Y direction.
  • General Dimensions:
    • Priority Panel Size
    • Cell Quantity
    • Panel Length (X) and Panel Width (Y)
    • Cell Length (X) and Cell Width (Y)
    • Number of Columns (X) and Number of Rows (Y)
  • Strip Separation Type:
    • Sawn – Select for strips separated by saw.
    • Scribed – Select for strips separated by scribe for scoring.
  • Strip Tooling Holes:
    • Diameter – Set the diameter of the strip tooling hole.
    • Centerline Hole to Strip Edge (X) and (Y)
  • Panel Tooling Holes:

    • Scribe Fiducial Gaps
    • Fiducials and input values to work with the main Saw Street lines.
    • Includes detailed labeled diagrams for what each input value in dialog box will affect in final output panel.
    • Add extra text labels to panel.
    • Save values to configuration file to be used again or shared with other users
  • Plus much more...

Because of the particular and exact needs of Panelizing, CAD Design Software offers to customize the Panel Software for a design type or custom parameters for the output.

   

Matrix (Single Panel) – Used for creating full panel arrays utilizing saw street or scribe and snap separation lines with test coupons for the complete panel:

Strip (Sub Panels) – Used for creating full panel arrays utilizing saw street or scribe and snap separation lines with test coupons for each strip (column):

 

LTCC (Frame) – Used for creating Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic panels:
