TAGARNO DXF Overlay App Revolutionizes Component Search in the Electronics Industry
June 13, 2023 | TagarnoEstimated reading time: 1 minute

TAGARNO, a leading provider of digital microscopes, is pleased to announce that its DXF Overlay App, designed specifically for the electronics industry, is a game-changing innovation for component search. Developed to enhance efficiency and accuracy in component search, the DXF Overlay App enables users to import DXF files directly to the microscope and utilize the in-app search bar to locate specific components effortlessly. With the ability to pinpoint miniaturized components in a matter of seconds, the DXF Overlay App is set to transform the way professionals navigate intricate printed circuit boards (PCBs).
The DXF Overlay App from TAGARNO streamlines the component search process by harnessing the power of CAD file integration and advanced search functionalities. By importing the DFX file directly onto the microscope, users can overlay the design onto the live image of the PCB, providing a precise reference point for component identification and inspection.
Searching for miniaturized components has historically presented challenges due to their small size and intricate placement. However, with the DXF Overlay App, professionals in the electronics industry can leverage the in-app search bar to locate specific components swiftly and accurately. By simply typing in the desired component name or code, the app’s intelligent search algorithm identifies and highlights the corresponding component on the live image, eliminating the need for tedious manual scanning and reducing the risk of human error.
“We are proud to offer our customers the DXF Overlay App, a cutting-edge solution tailored to meet the unique needs of the electronics industry,” said Jake Kurth, Country Manager, Americas. “We understand the time-consuming and meticulous process of searching for miniaturized components on PCBs, and our app addresses this challenge head-on. With the DXF Overlay App, professionals can save valuable time, increase accuracy, and optimize their workflow, ultimately driving productivity and efficiency in their operations.”
The DXF Overlay App is available for use with TAGARNO's advanced digital microscope solutions, offering a seamless integration of DXF files and real-time imaging. With its user-friendly interface and powerful search capabilities, the app empowers professionals in electronics manufacturing, quality control, and research and development to streamline their workflows and deliver superior results.
