"Work is the refuge of people who have nothing better
to do." - Mark Twain. Are you tired of dedicating countless hours to programming your PCB
inspection AOI machines? Our Unisoft ProntoAOI software, developed over the last
35 years, can provide you with more time to pursue your passions and interests.
Think about all the additional time you could spend reading, gaming, or even
relaxing. Just kidding about these, boss.
Seriously, the ProntoAOI
software is used by electronics manufacturers and creates programs for PCB assembly ( PCBA ) Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) machines & includes the basic features of ProntoVIEW-MARKUP.
The Unisoft ProntoAOI software translates CAD or Gerber and Bill of Materials
(BOM) files into real reference designators, X/Y body centers, Theta rotation,
part numbers, etc. This data is then used by Process Engineers to program their
AOI machines. ProntoAOI programs popular newer and older AOI equipment. Most
machines are supported such as Agilent, Aleader, AOI Systems, ASC International,
Beijing Torch, Christopher Associates, CR Technology, CyberOptics, DCB
Automation, Goepel Electronics, JT Automation, Jutze Technology, Koh Young,
Landrex Technologies, Machine Vision Products (MVP), Marantz, MEK, Mirtec,
Omron, Orbotech, Parmi, Pemtron, Photon Dynamics, Saki, Samsung, Shanghai Holly,
Test Research, Vi Technology, Viscom, ViTrox, YESTech, YesTek, ZhenHuaXing, etc.
Other AOI machine models can be programmed with standard outputs the Unisoft
software creates. Also some AOI machines need only standard CAD file formats to
program them and the Unisoft software as options available to input one type of
CAD file format and then export a standard CAD file format such as GENCAD,
IPCD356, IPC-2581, MENTOR Neutral, PADS, Fabmaster, .XML, etc. that can then be
used to program those AOI machines. Trial Software:Try
our trial software at no cost. Start using the fully licensed version for as
little as $600. For over 35 years, Unisoft has delivered exceptional value.
ProntoAOI also includes, at no additional charge, the basic features of ProntoVIEW-MARKUP and is used by PCB assembly ( PCBA ) electronic manufacturers with features such as detailed viewing of PC board assemblies and the creation of documents, etc. required throughout the PCB assembly ( PCBA ) process. The software increases efficiency, communications and reduces errors across the production floor. With over 100 features ProntoVIEW-MARKUP aids every department every day on the shop floor of PCB assembly ( PCBA ) manufacturers where it is used by management, assembly, inspection, design, Test, troubleshooting technicians and other personnel. The software creates assembly instructions with unique colors for each part number and step in the assembly process and generates matching kitting labels. Locate any component, pin or part number, finds shorts between traces, netlist, paperless hyperlinked schematic linked to the asssembly, add annotation notes and graphics. The software provides fast PC Board first article inspection and general inspection. Create reports containing device and package type counts with quotation and cost estimations, etc.. With a current license distribute the Unisoft PC Board viewer software to your production floor, vendors, customers, etc. to aid assembly, 1st article inspection, general inspection, repair/rework, technician debug, for better communications, etc. If needed ProntoVIEW-MARKUP can be controlled remotely from your application or equipment via the supplied external API programming interface.

The information and figures that follow outline a few of the features of ProntoVIEW-MARKUP or go to the ProntoVIEW-MARKUP page for more detail.
The Unisoft software allows you to quickly create matching assembly lists and assembly drawing sheets for each step in the assembly process. Part numbers are automatically assigned to the assembly step you wish (for example: Step 1 for Hand Inserts, Step 2 Chip Shooter components, etc). The part numbers are then automatically uniquely colored. If needed, overlay annotation notes can be added to each step. Next for each step matching assembly lists and assembly drawings are created. These drawings can either be printed or save to a file (PDF Adobe, etc.) or displayed on the screen.
Download a sample of process and assembly sheet documentation created by this software.
The Unisoft software allows you to quickly create Kitting Labels with barcodes for fast and accurate electronic component kitting. Quickly select the component part numbers for which you wish kitting labels created. Each label contains the part number, unique part number color, step number, p/n description, reference designator, etc. Fast and easy electronic kitting labels for kitting work orders.
Barcodes of various types can be printed on the kitting labels and shown on the display for quick kitting,
fast assembly machine feeder loading, verification, inspection, etc.: 2d-qr code, 2d-data matrix, etc.
Paper or Paperless assembly instructions are available using the Unisoft software. If paperless assembly instructions are desired then many options are available. For example two options might be that the below 3 operations for Mary, Jane and Joe can be shown as the same display, as pictured above, on each of their 3 monitors. The other option may be that the 3 color operations above can be separated into 3 separate .F2B database files and then each .F2B displays only their unique operation on each of their 3 monitors.
Further the operators can select one of their several part numbers to be install from below and only those components with the selected part number will blink on the display.
If paper assembly documents are desired from the paperless display simply click the PRINT ASSEMBLY DOCUMENTS button and the hard copy created can be ordered by step, color, operation, etc.
Import your PC Board into the Unisoft manufacturing software and you instantly receive a report containing component counts for top and bottom of the PC Board broken down by SMT, Fine pitch, BGA's, Thru-hole, etc. with the cost for each group. You can create as many PCB assembly ( PCBA ) Cost templates as you wish, for example one each for either a Low, Medium or High volume build. This is a great quoting time saver for Contract and OEM manufacturers.
Example of a few lines of a report follows:
PC Board: 123-456

The Electronic Components Search feature helps you find information such as cost, availability, part shape, electrical specifications, etc. Provides fast searching for electronic parts using your favorite parts search engine for example Octopart, FindChips, Alldatasheets, ECIA Authorized, etc.
Search for electronic parts using the Manufacturer or Vendor P/N for example ERJ-3EKF1002V. Also search by the electronic component number or name such as MAX232, LM393, resistor 10k, shift registers, inverter schmitt trigger, etc.
All types of Bill of Material (BOM) formats can be imported into the Unisoft software and then exported to normalized standard BOM formats that can then be utilized by your other manufacturing software systems such as Part Sourcing, MRP, ERP, etc.
Easier drill down to component pins, trace runs and schematic. Display NETLISTS quickly using the "NET INFORMATION" window that displays the NET NAME of the selected component and pin and all the other pins on the net. The trace run of the selected net is highlighted and all pins on the net blink. If the schematic view is displayed then the net chosen is shown. The user can then select any one of the other pins on the net in the NET INFORMATION box. The result is the NET INFORMATION window will update to the new selected pin and the selected trace highlighted will update also. If the schematic view is displayed then that view will refresh too.
Find shorts between traces, netlists, netnames, component information, etc.
The Unisoft software outputs a single board file of the PCB assembly ( PCBA ) that is compatible with the PCB assembly ( PCBA ) viewer. Customers with a current license can distribute the PCB assembly ( PCBA ) viewer and the Unisoft PCB assembly ( PCBA ) board file to your production floor, other divisions, vendors, customers, etc. to aid assembly, first article inspection, general inspection, repair/rework, technician debug, for enhanced communications, etc.
