Datum Dynamics has a unique design philosophy, which has involved creating automated design methods. By identifying common attributes, which lend themselves to parametric design, we have produced a suite of software that allows our designers to manipulate data, apply design routines and thus reduce design time considerably. Here are some examples of the routines we have created:
 |
AutoCarrier - This will create a wave solder carrier complete with end view, stiffeners and wave riders. |
 |
AutoDEKPlate - This will design and machine a complete DEK plate including recessed pockets. |
 |
AutoMPM3000 - This will design and machine a vacuum block suitable for an MPM 3000. |
 |
Springer & Pin - Used in our surface mount pallets to locate and retain PCBs. |
 |
Spilleted profile - This will automatically generate the optimum profile to retain a PCB in a fixture. |
 |
Internal & External Fillet - Speeds up the design process. |
 |
Sort Circles - Automatically sorts circles according to size ( try getting 4000 vias out of a drawing). |
 |
Strip Rectangles - Takes all visible rectangles and puts them on a new layer. |
 |
Strip Legend - Does exactly what it says on the tin. |
 |
Extract Geometry - Takes all occurrences of the selected geometry and puts them on a new layer. |
 |
Extract Component - Strips out pad groups and generates a component outline for each pad group picked. |
 |
Locate Depop - This finds all of the depopulated components on PCB from a depop list. |
 |
AutoPocket - Automatically generates offset pockets around components with a minimum wall thickness. |
 |
Clean Up Pocket - Smoothes and tidies automatically generated pockets. |
 |
AutoFixing - Select the aperture profile and this will dynamically allow you to insert fixing pockets and holes. |
 |
Customer Approval - allows any number of screenshots to be taken into a document and attached into an E-mail for immediate sending. |
 |
Add Tool Data - Quick method of generating operation information for production. |
