Gerber File Option Added to Sunstone's PCB123 Order Process
January 26, 2021 | Sunstone CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Sunstone Circuits, printed circuit board (PCB) solutions provider for prototypes, medium volume and production quantities, has launched a better way to get free Gerber files when placing a PCB order through the PCB123 free CAD tool.
As always, PCB123 users can easily design and order prototypes and production through Sunstone's full manufacturing service line by clicking on the "ORDER" button inside PCB123 to send the design straight to Sunstone’s OneQuote form to allow the user to make all of the PCB choices they need for their design. In addition to all the normal PCB parameters users also have a choice of engineering level and can either build for Prototype (Limited Review) or jump over to Sunstone's PCBpro service for complex services or full-blown production.
In the past when the user wished to receive a set of Gerber files for their completed order, an email or phone call to our Support team was required. Now simply checking a box in the order process allows users to have their Gerber files ordered and sent without any further steps on the users’ part. Perfect for the designer that wants to keep a library of their completed and tooled Gerber files.
PCB123’s free CAD Tool is part of a suite of PCB solutions from Sunstone which includes RF manufacturing capabilities, in-house ENIG capabilities, choices of lead times and a vast array of manufacturing enhancements for all of the Sunstone services ValueProto, PCBExpress, PCBpro and PCB123. Also because every PCB design needs components Sunstone offers Bundled Assembly, SMT Stencils with or without nano coating all through our OneQuote form. With all of these offerings, Sunstone Circuits is continuing to differentiate themselves as the preferred comprehensive PCB solutions provider within the marketplace.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
