Nutzung von Open-Source-Technologie zur Revolutionierung der Leiterplattenherstellung: Die interaktive Stücklistenvisualisierung ermöglicht eine hochwertige SMT-Produktion

Im Bereich der Leiterplattenfertigung, Die technologische Weiterentwicklung hat die Branche schon immer zu höherer Effizienz und Präzision geführt. As a service provider dedicated to high-quality PCB manufacturing, we always uphold the philosophy of “technology first,” deeply integrating cutting-edge open source technologies into our production processes while innovating locally based on the open source ecosystem. Unter diesen, the interactive visual BOM system upgraded from the open source project InteractiveHtmlBom (open source address: https://github.com/openscopeproject/InteractiveHtmlBom) has achieved a key breakthrough in technical implementation — only three core data files are required: Gerber -Dateien, BOM sheets, and Map coordinate files — to generate a fully interactive visual BOM, greatly simplifying data input thresholds and enhancing manufacturing collaboration efficiency.

I. Technical Upgrade: Lightweight Data Input Reconstructs Manufacturing Processes

Based on the core of open source technology, our technical team has carried out targeted optimizations for PCB manufacturing scenarios, with the core breakthrough lying in the deep expansion of data compatibility:

1. Three-File Lightweight Input System
   • Gerber-Dateien: Read physical information such as graphic layers, pads, and silkscreen from PCB designs to ensure precise mapping of component positions to the board layout.
   • BOM Sheets: Support common formats like Excel/CSV, parsing material attributes such as component models, parameters, and designators.
   • Map Coordinate Files: Acquire coordinate and rotation angle data of components on the PCB to achieve millimeter-level positioning for surface mounting.

   Through our independently developed data parsing engine, these three files can be associated without relying on original design software (such as KiCad, Adler), solving the pain point of “design tool binding” in traditional solutions, especially suitable for manufacturing scenarios requiring compatibility with multi-source design data.

2. Intelligent Data Verification Mechanism New automatic comparison functions are added:
   • Verify the consistency between BOM designators and Gerber silkscreen, marking anomalies such as duplicate designators or missing components.
   • Analyze the matching degree between Map coordinates and Gerber pads, providing early warnings for component offset risks, controlling the data error rate within 0.1%.

II. Technical Implementation: Innovation in Manufacturing Scenarios with Three-File Input

1. Full-Process Data Decoupling for Multi-Source Design Compatibility

• Design Tool Independence: Whether customers use Altium, LCEDA, or other tools, simply providing standard Gerber+BOM+Map files can generate a unified-format visual BOM, breaking down design software barriers.
• Adaptability to Historical Projects: For revised projects without original design files, visual reconstruction can be completed solely with archived Gerber data from production, greatly reducing the technical threshold for renovating old projects.

2. SMT Manufacturing Efficiency Enhancement: Acceleration from “Data Preparation” Zu “Production Execution”

• Improved Data Processing Efficiency: Traditional solutions relied on design software to export specific format files, taking about 2-4 Std.; the current three-file input mode enables rapid parsing within 15 Minuten, especially suitable for quick switching of small-batch and multi-batch orders.
• Production Line Adaptation Optimization: The generated visual BOM is simultaneously compatible with coordinate import for production line AOI equipment. Operators can directly retrieve component positions through the visual interface, cooperating with intelligent placement machines to achieve “input-and-place” functionality.

3. Customer Collaboration Upgrade: Lightweight Delivery Reduces Communication Costs

• Standardized Deliverables: Provide customers with integrated HTML files containing Gerber visual previews, BOM tables, and component coordinates, viewable without installing any software, fully compatible with mobile phones and computers.
• Self-Service Problem Location: Customers can click on component graphics in the HTML interface to view corresponding BOM parameters and Map coordinates in real time, independently completing “design-manufacturing” data verification and reducing 80% of manual communication inquiries.

III. Core Advantages of Choosing Us: Manufacturing Value Leap Driven by Technical Improvements

1. Data Compatibility: Breaking Down Design Tool Barriers Compared with the original open source solution’s reliance on specific design software, our three-file input mode achieves 99% compatibility with PCB design data. Whether it’s simple designs from start-ups or industrial-grade files for complex multi-layer boards, they can be quickly converted into visual BOMs, eliminating manufacturing delays caused by “design tool incompatibility.”
2. Efficiency Revolution: Full-Chain Acceleration from Data Preparation to Production
   • Data processing time compressed from 2-4 hours to within 15 Minuten, shortening project launch cycles by 70%.
   • Rework rates due to data errors in the SMT process reduced by 95%, with placement yields for micro-components like 0201 improved to 99.98%.
3. Kostenoptimierung: Lightweight Technology Reduces Collaboration Costs for Both Parties
   • Customers do not need to purchase design software licenses or learn complex export processes, only needing to provide basic production files to complete collaboration.
   • We reduce manual data processing costs through technical improvements, directly reflecting cost savings in service pricing, with prices reducible by 15%-20% for the same services.
